WHEREAS as a public servant Will Stephens spent countless hours and miles to represent the interests and concerns of residents in the Hudson Valley marking among his successes legislation improving clean air quality, transportation infrastructure, creating legislative open space funding mechanisms, and recodifyng criminal law statutes;

WHEREAS the People of Yorktown are forever grateful for the efforts of this fine gentleman who has sacrificed his own personal life and privacy for the public good;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that I, Linda G. Cooper, Supervisor of the Town of Yorktown, along with the Members of the Yorktown Town Board, extend our gratitude and appreciation for all the good works performed by Assemblyman Stephens and we wish him best of luck in his new adventures; and furthermore we proclaim to all far and near that today is Will Stephens Day in the Town of Yorktown and ask all to join us in congratulating the Assemblyman for his service.

New York Assemblyman Willis Stephens accepted the Proclamation stating that it has been a great pleasure and honor to serve in the State Assembly for twelve years.

Councilman Martorano asked Mr. Stephens what his most memorable moment was?

Mr. Stephens said his most memorable moment was the very first time he was sworn into office. This is a position which was previously held by both his grandfather and his father.

DURING HER REPORT TO THE TOWN, Supervisor Linda Cooper yielded her time to Walt Daniels, Ed Killeen, Paul Moskowitz and John Schroeder, members of the Open Space Committee.

Speaking for the Committee, Mr. Daniels thanked Assemblyman Stephens for his work in getting the Town of Yorktown special legislation to collect the $30.00 fee for Open Space. The Committee is continuing its work locating parcels of property which are suitable to purchase for open space. Mr. Daniels applauded the Town Board for their recent resolution approving the purchase of the 33 acre parcel on Gomer Street formerly known as Solomon Farms.

Mr. Killeen also congratulated the Town Board for its decision to buy this property which he says sits within one of the most densely populated areas of Yorktown. Purchasing this property gives the Town opportunities to provide the residents with trails, parks, etc.

DURING COURTESY OF THE FLOOR, the following people addressed the Town Board.

Mr. Arthur Ornek, speaking as a member of the Fire Prevention Commission asked that the Town Board reconsider its decision not to include a full-time fire inspector in the 2007 budget. He stated that while the two part-time inspectors are wonderful, the Town of Yorktown has grown and the regulations have become more complex. He further stated that during the last meeting Councilman Metz asked if there had been any problems as a result of only having part time inspectors; the answer is no, but what the Commission wants to do is prevent future fires. The best way to step into this issue is by placing a half year salary in the budget for 2007.

Supervisor Cooper stated that in addition to that request, the Town Board also heard from Mrs. Clemenza who had a problem with the overtime budget for the Library, another resident had a problem with the Library budget in general, they felt it was too high. The Supervisor further stated that if the fire inspector is placed in the budget, the current proposed increase will go from 3.99% to 4.2 or 4.5%

Councilman Campisi stated that placing a $50,000 item back in the budget is not as simple as it sounds. While the salary may be $50,000 for 2007, we are looking at a yearly salary of more than $100,000 for next year. We also took advice from UTY, using much more of our surplus funds than normal. We took $600,000 from the surplus to keep the budget at 3.99%. Addressing Mr. Ornek, Councilman Campisi stated that Mr. Metz asked if there was a problem with the part-time fire inspectors. He was told there was no problem.

Supervisor Cooper stated that the part-time inspectors do a fine job, but they are not getting to all of our buildings on a regular basis. She further stated that there are conditions which could be cited by the fire inspector, but are not. The job a full-time fire inspector will do is different from the job performed by the part-time inspectors.

Councilman Martorano stated that he would like to see the Town fund a drug unit, or at least one officer dedicated to fighting drugs. He also felt a full-time fire inspector was needed.

Councilman Metz stated that he didn’t want people to think that the Town Board does not take safety seriously. But, we asked if there was anything the current fire marshals were doing that was wrong. We were told no. No one ever said there were buildings that were not being inspected on a regular basis. He suggested that we treat this issue as a private business would. We will no longer continue to create new jobs. We will look outside the box to find solutions such as going into joint ventures with fire districts and using existing personnel to perform these tasks until we arrive at an acceptable solution.

CREATE FULL-TIME FIRE INSPECTOR POSITION

Upon motion made by Supervisor Cooper, seconded by Councilman Martorano,

RESOLVED, the position for a full-time fire inspector for one half year is placed back into the budget.

The resolution was thereupon declared duly adopted.

Councilman Bianco thanked the Supervisor for her work on this budget. He read a prepared statement, a copy of which is on file in the Town Clerk’s Office. He thanked Joan Goldberg, the Town Comptroller and her staff for their good work. The statement also expressed his desire to keep taxes at or below the inflation level, while maintaining services at the level that the people who live and work in the Town of Yorktown require. Councilman Bianco also said he would like to see this budget document which totals more than one hundred pages compressed into a twenty page summary form which can be placed on the internet.

Councilman Campisi thanked Supervisor Cooper and the Finance Department for their work on the budget . He repeated portions of his prior discussion concerning the $600,000 surplus which was placed in the budget. Councilman Campisi stated that the total tax increase amounts to $61.00 per year, or 16 ? cents a day.

Councilman Martorano started his conversation by talking about budgets for the Lakeland School District which he says totals $125 million and the Yorktown School District which totals nearly $80 million. The Town of Yorktown’s budget is much smaller, $48 million. Approximately 83.4% of our budget is for salary, contractual obligations and equipment.

Supervisor Cooper thanked the Finance Department for their work on the budget. She said taxes in New York are a major concern, and that perhaps people like the incoming Governor will work on finding solutions to our tax problem.

RECONVENE PROPOSED LOCAL LAW

AMENDING CHAPTER 300 - ACCESSORY APARTMENT CHANGES

Supervisor Cooper reconvene a public hearing to consider a proposed Local Law amending Section §300-38 “Accessory dwelling units in single family homes,” of Chapter 300 of the Code of the Town of Yorktown, by amending certain conditions under which accessory dwelling units can exist in a single family dwelling. The Town Clerk presented affidavits of printing and publication.

Mr. Ken Belfer explained that the proposed changes to the accessory apartment law were brought about as a result of discussions concerning the Comprehensive Plan. We learned that there were significant numbers of people who for one reason or another could no longer or might not be able to afford to continue to live in their home, but wanted to remain in Yorktown. We also learned that accessory apartments are located throughout the Town. After the public hearing on proposed amendments in March, the Community Housing Board attempted to put together a meeting of diverse groups such as the school boards and zoning boards. As a result of those meetings, we have come put with these proposed changes. If a lot has a special permit for an accessory dwelling, they will not be given a special permit to store, park or stand any commercial vehicle or trailer. He also stated that the property owner would have to live in the larger unit. The proposal also drops the waiting period to apply for a special permit for an accessory apartment from five years to two years. The Housing Board also supports the proposal which permits the Zoning Board to waive the waiting period to allow the creation of an accessory apartment for a disabled person or a senior citizen 62 years or older. Mr. Belfer stated that his Committee also supports granting a waiver for deed restricted affordable housing. Right now, the only property that would be eligible for such a waiver is the housing that will be built on property owned by the Church of the Nazarine.

Mrs. Toni Downes-King, a member of the Housing Board spoke in favor of the proposed changes as well for the proposal suggested by Mr. Belfer giving affordable, or deed restricted housing the same waiver.

Mr. Mel Tanzamann, Executive Director of Westchester Disabled on the Move spoke in favor of the proposal, and to Mr. Belfer’s proposal to extending the waiver to deed restricted housing. He also spoke in favor of the Town Board permitting the owner of a home to live in the smaller unit, instead of the larger unit.

Supervisor Cooper read a letter from Mr. Michael Saltzman, a copy is on file in the Town Clerk’s Office regarding the proposal. Mr. Saltzman stated that this proposal could have an effect on zoning and therefore required an Environmental Impact Statement.

Mr. Anthony Grasso who works on the Finance Committee for the Yorktown School District stated that he was against any proposal that would permit the owner to rent out the larger unit.

Mr. Belfer returned stating that the Town of North Castle permits waivers on its deed restricted housing. He spoke to an administrator of the program who told him there had not been any type of negative impact on the school district with this measure.

Supervisor Cooper stated that she supported adding deed restricted housing to the list of exemptions.

Councilman Martorano agreed stating that we discussed allowing this type of housing on property owned by the Church of the Nazarine during a work session.

DEED RESTRICTED HOUSING

Upon motion made by Supervisor Cooper, seconded by Councilman Martorano,

RESOLVED, that Section IV of Chapter 300-38 be amended so that a waiver may be granted by the Zoning Board of Appeals for deed restricted housing.

CONVENE PUBLIC HEARING

AMENDING CHAPTER 225 - PROPERTY MAINTENANCE

RESPONSIBILITIES OF PROPERTY OWNERS

Supervisor Cooper called to order a public hearing to consider a proposed Local Law amending Chapter 225 of the Code of the Town of Yorktown with regards to property maintenance responsibilities of property owners. The Town Clerk presented affidavits of printing and publication.

Councilman Bianco asked Mr. Joseph Hughes, Yorktown’s Code Enforcement Officer to explain the changes. He explained that most of these changes were brought about because of the his inability to cite property owners for failure to maintain their property primarily due to the lack of clear definitions.

Mr. Alex Swerdlov, a resident of Yorktown stated that he has been trying to get his neighbor to remove dead trees which he says threatens his property with no success. He believes this law needs to include a timetable.

Mrs. Kathleen McCormick stated that she supports this proposal. Property near her home represents an eyesore to the community.

Mr. Scott Markman, a resident of Cordial Road sated that there is a situation in his neighborhood which is not only an eyesore, but he believes is also an environmental hazard because his neighbor treats the property like a garbage dump. He also asked if the proposal contains a provision which requires the owner to pay for the cost of cleaning the property if town workers are used?

Councilman Metz asked Mr. Hughes if he was satisfied that this proposal would give him the enforcement capabilities he needed?

Mr. Hughes was satisfied with the proposal. He added that there is a ten day timetable in summons he hands out.

Supervisor Cooper asked the Town Attorney if there was any liability to the Town if town workers are brought in as a result of an owners failure to clean his property?

Mr. Sweeny stated that there was always the potential for liability but that the Town would

only resort to this type of action after giving the property owner due notice.

Mr. Jeremiah Dineen complained that the current proposal is better than the one that the Board began this process with. But, he says the problem continues to be the fact that this law does not contain any standards. Mr. Dineen stated that according to this proposal, his compost site could be considered a problem. One of the reasons for standards, according to Mr. Dineen is that some problems are worse than others and may require a shorter time table. He also stated that no exemption for agricultural has been added to this law.

Councilman Martorano stated that he agreed with Mr. Dineen concerning the first draft of this law which dealt with mostly maintenance issues. But, what we are attempting to shine a spotlight on extreme examples, those which could possibly be health hazards. We are not looking at issues such as someone’s compost

Councilman Metz stated that the Board did agree to exempt agricultural districts from this law, this was an oversight which we will correct right now.

PROPERTIES WITHIN AN AGRICULTURAL DISTRICT

Upon motion made by Councilman Metz, seconded by Councilman Martorano,

RESOLVED THAT Section 225-10 be amended as follows, properties within an agricultural district are exempt,

WILDWOOD STREET AND SUNCREST AVENUE

Supervisor Cooper called to order a public hearing to consider a proposed Local Law amending Chapter 275 of the Code of the Town of Yorktown, by adding a full stop at the intersection of Wildwood Street and Suncrest Avenue in each direction. The Town Clerk presented affidavits of printing and publication.

Councilman Metz explained that this proposal is a result of residents living in this area coming before the Traffic Advisory Board asking for something to be done. Members of the Board made a site visit and agreed that a stop sign needed to be added in this area because of sight distance issues.

Councilman Campisi stated that he normally disagrees with adding a stop sign to a T intersection. But, he says there are real site distance problems here.
