PRESENTATION BY LES ADAMS OF CARROLL BURACKER& ASSOCIATES REGARDING THE FIRE HOUSE LOCATION: Copies of the report would be available tomorrow after 3:00 p.m. and the Facilities Committee would receive a similar presentation on April 14th at 7:45 p.m. Les Adams of Carroll Buracker& Associates gave a general presentation on the Fire House Study and the Fire House Location. The 80-page report reviewed risk assessment, response time, and location options. National standards and computerized analysis were used to project response times and an estimated 1000 calls per year. The risk assessment analysis section dealt with apartments, condos, 006362 March 25, 1997 corporation headquarters, schools and future growth such as Red Roof Farm and High Point. Response time, mutual aid, communications, and dispatch were also covered in the study. The fire station options dealt with work done by the Facilities Committee, response time records, location, size, economics, . traffic, and safety. The four main sites chosen out of fourteen possible locations were North Ridge Street and Betsy Brown Road, North Ridge Street and Sleepy Hollow Road, King Street by Village Hall, and King Street by Hillandale Road (by the former compost site). Certain fire station criteria such as having a station of between 7500-8000 square feet, with 2 to 3 bay doors, and a drive through station were addressed in the study. The size and configuration of the site were also examined especially with respect to the location at North Ridge Street and Betsy Brown Road where the station could be situated in different positions to keep construction costs down. F.P. Clark and Associates did a traffic analysis that included street layout, traffic density, response hazards, special needs, future changes, and motor vehicle history(ex: number of accidents). The question of one or two stations was also addressed in the study. Les Adams said that one station was more than adequate and economically more efficient than two stations. Two issues that were of concern to residents were firehouse noise and real estate values. In terms of noise, Les Adams said that it would be the same at any location and that as time passed it would not be noticed. In terms of real estate values, Les Adams said that it was not a potential problem because if there was a drop in real estate values it would be insignificant. Les Adams handed out a table to the Board and audience that compared the four sites with respect to the firehouse location criteria. He said that the Ridge Street sites were better than the King Street sites because they had better response times and were closer to the geographic center and north-south axis of the Village. Also, there was a higher number of accidents on King Street because of more traffic. Mr. Adams said that while neither of the North Ridge Streets was absolutely perfect because of construction costs for the Betsy Brown location and the residents' concerns for the school and traffic at the Sleepy Hollow site, he felt that a North Ridge Street location would be best. Trustee Pellino asked about the Betsy Brown Road location being at a crossroads and how it would be affected during storms and heavy traffic. Les Adams said that the cross-streets were important and a positive aspect of the Betsy Brown location. Trustee Zuckerman asked about the standards for firehouse construction and if both sites on North Ridge Street would require that type of construction. Les Adams said the Betsy Brown location could be more difficult to construct, and the Sleepy Hollow site has a house on the property that can be added on to. Trustee Strum asked Les Adams what his number one site would be without taking into account public comments. Les Adams said that it would be Ridge Street at Sleepy Hollow. Trustee Strum also asked about top response times and costs. Les Adams agreed that those two criteria are very important. Trustee Strum then asked about the topography ratings. Les Adams said that the Sleepy Hollow and Betsy Brown sites had the same topography rating but that Betsy Brown had a more costly economics 2 006364 March 25, 1997 Attorney Powell announced that at the last Board meeting, the Board had asked for some changes to be made to the draft law. First, to require sprinklers to be installed in any existing residence used as a child day care center and second, to clarify what constitutes an existing building for the purpose of the grandfather provision to establish that it includes buildings under construction or up for construction authorized by a building permit. Attorney Powell reported that those two revisions had been incorporated into Section 212-4 which is#7 of the draft. The inclusion of the child day care center being required to have sprinklers, and the provision to include the grandfather provision for purposes of what constitutes an existing building was listed on page 7, paragraph E. Trustee Strum reported that one of the local newspapers wrote an article about this law indicating that there was a seven year period for existing structures to become sprinklered which was misleading. It should have stated the requirement was for commercial uses only. Trustee Strum explained that residential dwellings did not need to install sprinklers unless there was a renovation of 50 percent of the replacement cost or renovation of 50 percent of the floor area. Mayor Cresenzi asked if there were any further comments from the public or the Board. Hearing no response, he asked for a motion to adjourn. The Board members unanimously agreed to close the public hearing. 2. RE-CONVENING THE HEARING ON A LOCAL LAW INTRODUCTORY#4 OF 1997, ENTITLED. "REGULATIONS FOR CHILD CARE FACILITIES": Ken Powell spoke about the ability of the Village to conduct inspections. He said that usually the Village would need a search warrant, but that administrative searches covered by the Social Services Law would be an exception. Trustee Pellino asked if the Village could search the facility based on a complaint, or if annual inspections were the only way to inspect the facilities. Mr. Powell said the Village would have to have a substantial governmental interest, the search would have to be necessary, and the owner would need notice so that the inspection could take place. He said that Social Services could go into the facility announced or unannounced, and that land use and building issues would be of the Village's concern and that child protection would be Social Services' concern. There could also be a time limit on the permit allowing the building inspector to go back and take another look. Trustee Tunis said she would rather have a time limit on the permit and let Social Services do a review. Trustee Strum supported periodic inspections. Mr. Powell said an administrative inspection provision could be added. Trustee Zuckerman said the building and fire inspector could make an inspection if there was a complaint. Trustee Pellino said the laws should make reference to Social Services' role. Mr. Christian Miller asked the Board if the law was retroactive or would apply only to new applications. Trustee Zuckerman believed that it should apply to all. Mr. Powell said that nursery schools already need special permits. Mayor Cresenzi said that it was not fair to apply standards to something that had existed for a long time. Trustee Zuckerman said that safety inspections should apply to existing facilities. Mayor Cresenzi said that safety inspections were not a problem but making existing facilities comply with the new standards was not fair. Trustee Zuckerman said that there were certain zoning issues such as the requirement that basements not be used that would need to be inspected and checked-out. 4 006363 March 25, 1997 rating. He then added that money not being an issue they had the same topography rating. Trustee Strum then asked about the Sleepy Hollow site being near the Bruno M. Ponterio Ridge Street School. Les Adams said that communities put firehouses near schools often and that it was not uncommon. He also said that they would have a 15 mph speed limit in front of the school. Trustee Strum then asked about property values and noise (ex: if the trucks leaving the station would use sirens). Les Adams said that he was not asked to look at property values and that the trucks might use sirens when leaving the station. Mr. Adams added that a drive through station would be quieter since the trucks wouldn't have to stop traffic and back into the station on returning to the station. Trustee Strum asked about noise since both sites are populated areas. Les said that noise was not an issue. Trustee Tunis asked if communities such as Greenwich and Larchmont were concerned with the station being near schools and real estate values being impacted. Les Adams said that response times were their number one criteria. He also said that fire stations near schools were not uncommon because Greenwich had two fire stations by schools. Les Adams noted that the Betsy Brown site shows the best response time to all four schools in Rye Brook. Trustee Pellino asked about the fire station location with respect to the commercial district down by South Ridge Street. Les Adams said that the Betsy Brown site was closer to the commercial district but that both the Betsy Brown site and the Sleepy Hollow site were near the center of the Village. Trustee Pellino also asked about North Ridge Street being slightly wider at Betsy Brown than at Sleepy Hollow. Les Adams said that was not an issue because firefighters are trained professional drivers who can handle either width. Trustee Zuckerman asked if the response time figures took into account the area and its demands. Les Adams said that the geographic location of the incidents was considered. Harry Krausman, a member of the Facilities Committee, asked about the traffic problem in front of the elementary school. Les Adams said that issue was addressed. The Fire Department responds with caution and people would-yield to the fire trucks. He also said that if the fire trucks were leaving from Sleepy Hollow than they would go slower while in front of the elementary school. Trustee Zuckerman asked if a 12 second response time difference between the two North Ridge Street sites is a major factor. Les Adams responded that 30 seconds or more would be a significant difference. Jody Brackman, a member of the Facilities Committee, asked about the site lines with respect to the Sleepy Hollow and Betsy Brown sites. She said that the road winds by the Betsy Brown location while it is straight by the Sleepy Hollow location. Les Adams said that made the Sleepy Hollow site a better location; however, the issue could be dealt with by using the traffic lights. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 1. RE-CONVENING THE HEARING ON A LOCAL LAW INTRODUCTORY 45 OF 1997, ENTITLED, "REGULATIONS ON FIRE SPRINKLER REQUIREMENTS": 3 006365 March 25, 1997 Mr. Powell said that some limit should be put on the special permit and that an administrative inspection provision for complaints could be added. Trustee Strum said that a renewal permit would be too much of a burden if renovations were being made on the facility. Ken Powell said that a failed inspection could be subject to revocation. After a motion and a second, the Board unanimously agreed to adjourn the meeting until April 24th. RESOLUTIONS: 3.
