VILLAGE OF PELHAM BOARD OF TRUSTEES REGULAR MEETING MINUTES

TUESDAY, JANUARY 2, 2007, 7:30 PM

VILLAGE HALL – 195 SPARKS AVENUE, PELHAM, NY

Item #1 – Meeting called to order:  The meeting of the Board of Trustees was called to order by Mayor Michael J. Clain at 7:40 p.m.

The following members of the Board of Trustees were present:

Mayor Michael Clain, Trustees Greco, Hotchkiss, Merrick, Mohan, and Potocki.  Trustee Homan was absent.

Village staff in attendance:

Administrator/Treasurer Richard Slingerland, Administrative Aide Devron Wilson, and Building Inspector Len Russo

Item #2 – Pledge of Allegiance:

The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Mayor Michael J. Clain.

Item #3 – Mayor’s Report:

Mayor Clain reported that the 1^st Street Lot adjacent to the Ginsburg Lofts is now clear and available for village use.  The Village would like to turn the lot into a parking lot however; there is some debate amongst the Board of Trustees whether it should be a public or private parking lot.

Option 1: Make the lot private thereby only allowing residents who have a valid parking permit to park in the lot.

Option 2: Make the lot public with meter parking thereby allowing residents and non-residents to feed meters to park in the lot.

Mayor Clain further reported that if the Village decides to make the lot a public parking lot, then the village will most likely be able to use some of the money from the FTA project to fund the rehabilitation of the parking lot.  The Board discussed whether it would be cost effective to use a “muni-meter” system, but determined that based on the number of approximately 15 spaces that would be created, it might be more economical to use existing double-head parking meters.  Village Administrator Richard Slingerland will prepare a budget to rehabilitate the vacant lot.  The budget will be presented at the next Board of Trustees meeting on January 16, 2006.

Mayor Clain also mentioned that the Village needs to assemble a committee to review the Architectural Services/FTA Parking & DPW Garage project.  The people who were chosen are General Foreman Harry Pallett, Village Administrator Richard Slingerland, Administrative Aide Devron Wilson, Trustee Greco, and Trustee Hotchkiss.

The Mayor further mentioned that Barbara Bartlett from the Architectural Review Board received a new quote for the Pelham Train Station signs.  The quote she received was $1,750 per sign from the same company who created the Town of Pelham signs.

In addition, Mayor Clain would also like to move forward with ordering decorative garbage cans for the Village.

Item #4 – Trustees Reports:

Trustee Mohan mentioned that the Village extended (2) two offers of employment to firefighters.  She also mentioned that the Village may have offers to replace Engine #5 (the 1978 Seagrave pumper) as it is in poor condition.  There is an opportunity to purchase a demonstration model fire engine for approximately $356,000 as opposed to purchasing a new model for approximately $520,000.  She mentioned that it would cost approximately $61,000 per year at approximately 5% interest.  The Board of Trustees would like to review the alternatives before purchasing the demonstration vehicle engine.

Trustees Greco, Hotchkiss, Merrick and Potocki had nothing to report.

Item #5 – Village Administrator’s Report:

Village Administrator Richard Slingerland had nothing to report.

Item #6 – Public Comment: 

Richard Altobelli, 105 5^th Avenue, was concerned with a few items.  He mentioned that Metro North should pay for the Train Station Signs because the sign is located on Metro North property.  He also mentioned that the Village should not exchange the lot on the corner of 5^th Avenue and 3^rd Street with the Post Office until it receives a commercial assessment of the property.  The Mayor assured him the Village would only swap properties if the Village gets the appraised value.  He also mentioned that the Post Office is only allowed to do certain things within the law, and that they should not block traffic on First Street for half the day, only when they are loading and unloading mail.

John Cassone of 7^th Avenue thanked the Village for leveling the road on 1^st Street.  He also mentioned that Metro North should pay for the Pelham Train Station signs because they put up an inferior sign, it was vandalized, it needs to be replaced, and it is located on Metro North property.  He asked who was negligent in not insuring the Highbrook Gate structures that were damaged during the September 2^nd storm.  Administrator Slingerland replied that he thought that negligent was not the exact word to describe what had happened.  The Village had insured all its real property, vehicles and assets, but found out later that the infrastructure is not insured, and that at this time all the infrastructure like streetlights, traffic lights, the Harmon Clock Tower and the Highbrook Gates are insured under a $250,000 miscellaneous umbrella.  Mr. Cassone also asked the Village, “Is Con Edison going to mill Lincoln Avenue before they pave it”?  Village Administrator Richard Slingerland will find out this information for the next Board of Trustees meeting.  He also said that the sidewalks on Lincoln Avenue are atrocious, and that Lincoln Avenue is one of the heaviest trafficked streets in the Village.  He said the Village should not take it over before it is fully repaired.  Mayor Clain explained that the Village had made no agreement to take it over, just that we have expressed interest in the program.  He also mentioned the Village’s concern about the Legacy Program to improve ballfields, or build senior housing, and wanted to make sure that by taking over Lincoln Avenue, the Village would not be removed from these programs.

Item #7 – Continued Public Hearing on various proposed changes to the Residential Zoning Code in the Village of Pelham:

Trustee Hotchkiss reviewed what the Village had reviewed and adopted to date, and the recommendations on the agenda for review and discussion this evening:

Upon review and discussion by the Board, on the motion of Trustee Hotchkiss, seconded by Trustee Mohan, the following sections of the Local Law were adopted as amended by a vote of six in favor, none opposed, one absent (Trustee Homan):

January 2^nd:

Building Inspector

5.    Change Building Committee and Plumbing Inspector to Building Inspector.  Also, there are housecleaning items such as referrals to proper NY State laws and deletion of enforcement procedures not allowed by NY Law.  These were in the same chapters as Building Committee and Martha, Dave, and Len want to update the code.

Change of required permits, permissible structures in Residential B2, and change from conforming use to non-conforming use.

7.    Delete D2 (2) Applicants shall further evidence a service contract annually of their choice in writing which shall require periodic testing of the pool water for bacteria count by a duly authorized private or public concern or agency approved by the State Commission of Health.

8.    Delete annual permit for home professional office.

9.    Delete section allowing general medical & surgical hospital in Residential B2.

13.  Change from nonconforming use to conforming then back to non-conforming: Change 12 months to 6 months.  Delete " 6 consecutive months if such use occupies land whereon there is no consequential structure devoted to such use."

THESE SECTIONS WERE NOT ANNOTATED FOR BUILDING INSPECTOR CHANGES, JUST SUMMARIZED.

The following changes are made in Chapter 79 SITE PLAN and 98 ZONING:

Building Inspector

RECOMMENDATION 5.    Change Building Committee and Plumbing Inspector to Building Inspector.  Also, there are housecleaning items such as referrals to proper NY State laws and deletion of enforcement procedures not allowed by NY Law.  These were in the same chapters as Building Committee and Members of the Code Committee including Martha Conforti, Dave Daly and Len Russo recommended these be amended.

REASON FOR THE RECOMMENDATION:  The Building Committee is not necessary, as the Village has a full-time Building Inspector who is certified as the authorized Code Official for the Village.

STATUS:  This matter was addressed substantially in the Local Law adopted by the Board on November 21, 2006, amending Chapter 34 – Building Construction, Chapter 75 – Sidewalk Cafés and Chapter 77 -- SIGNS, AWNINGS, CANOPIES, MARQUEES AND BARBER POLES of the Village Code, all making changes to the provisions authorizing, defining and delegating duties to the Building Committee. 

At this point of the review of the Code, there are references to the Building Committee in Chapters 79 and 98, which are addressed in the text of the proposed law.  Specifically, the following sections of the draft proposed Local Law make reference to and eliminate the provisions for Building Committee, including but not limited to:

SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO CHAPTER 79 REGARDING BUILDING COMMITTEE:

79-6 A (3) – Change references from Building Committee to Building Inspector

79-6 B – Change reference from Building Committee to Village Administrator for conveyance to the Mayor and Board of Trustees for consideration of final site plan approval.

79-6 C – Change references from Building Committee to Building Inspector

IMPORTANT NOTE:  THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO SECTION 79-C OVERLAP WITH PROPOSED CHANGES REGARDING NOTIFICATION OF ADJOINING NEIGHBORS.  THESE ADDITIONAL CHANGES SHOULD BE CLARIFIED, ADJUSTED OR WITHDRAWN PRIOR TO FINAL ADOPTION.

79-6 D – Change reference from Building Committee to Village Administrator for forwarding the application to the Mayor and Board of Trustees for consideration of final site plan approval.  THIS IS A CORRECTED RECOMMENDATION.

79-6 E – Change reference from Building Committee to Building Inspector, for forwarding the application to the Planning Board or other village agency for submission of written recommendations and findings to the Mayor and Board of trustees for consideration in the review for final site plan approval.

79-F – Change reference from Building Committee to Village Clerk, who is responsible under the law for publishing notices.

79-G –  Change reference from Building Committee to Building Inspector, and add a provision for the Village Administrator to request comments from the Building Inspector, Fire Chief, Police Chief and Senior Public Works Official to assist the Mayor and Board in their review of the application for final site plan approval. 

79-H – Change reference from Building Committee to Building Inspector to retain the permanent Building File.

79-J – Change references from Building Committee to Building Inspector regarding Performance Bonds required pursuant to building permits.

Text of law changes, not annotated, changing Building Committee to Building Inspector, and other related changes:

SECTION 4.

Part     3)         Section 79-6A(3) is repealed and the following new Section 79-6A(3) is                                 adopted:

                        The Planning Board, subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees may                              revise or waive the provisions of any of the required information listed in                                 § 79-8 hereof, but only where it finds such requirement to be                                                      inappropriate or unnecessary due to the limited nature of the proposed                            development or special conditions particular to the site or upon a                                             determination that strict compliance with such requirement will cause such                         unnecessary work, expense or hardship. The Planning Board shall ensure                        that the granting of such revisions or waiver will not interfere with the                            accomplishment of the purposes and intent of this chapter nor have                             detrimental effect on the public health, safety or general welfare. The                                  Planning Board or the Building Inspector may require the applicant to                                submit a preliminary design to the Architectural Review Board prior to                                  submission of the primary site plan.   

Part 4)            Sections 79-6B through 79-6H are repealed and the following new

                        Sections 79-6B through 79-6H are adopted:

                        B.        Submission.

            F.         The Board of Trustees and/or Planning Board may hold a public                                   hearing on the site plan if it determines that the matter is of wide                                   public interest. If held, such a hearing shall be held within 60 days                                of the official submission date. Notice of such hearing shall be                                  given by the applicant to the owners of the adjacent or surrounding                                properties within 200 feet and proof of such notice shall be filed                             with both Boards.

5)         Section 79-6J is repealed and the following new Section 79-6J is adopted:

                        Performance bond.

(1)       Following approval of the site plan by the Board of Trustees, in addition to any other fees required by the Village of Pelham, the applicant shall file with the Village Clerk a performance bond in which the village is named as obligee in an amount set by the Building Inspector sufficient to cover the full cost of all required work planting and improvements. If the value of the required work, planting and improvements, the general nature of which is described in the following subsection, required in the final site plan approved by the Board of Trustees, is less than $10,000, the Building Inspector, with the concurrence of the Board of Trustees, may waive the bonding requirements.

                        (2)       A performance bond shall be in a form satisfactory to the Village                                              Attorney and may be in the form of surety company bonds. The                                                 performance bond may cover any of the following, among others:                                             proposed screening and landscaping, including planting and                                                          maintenance thereof for a minimum of one year and a maximum of                                                three years, at the discretion of the Board of Trustees; storm water                                           drainage systems; streets and lighting; off-street parking and                                        loading areas; means of vehicular access and egress to and from                                            the site onto public streets; recreation areas, including playgrounds;                            garbage collection stations; and fire alarm systems (if any). Said                                              bonds shall be conditioned upon completion by the property owner                                          or developer of all the applicable work, as set forth on the approved                               site plan, in a matter satisfactory to the Building Inspector and upon                                    the proper functioning of said system for a period of one year                                         following its completion.  

                        (3)       In case of default, the performance bond shall be forfeited to the                                               village and the proceeds shall be used by the village to complete                                              any incomplete portions of the required work, planting and                                                    improvements or to make such repairs or corrections as may be                                            necessary to assure proper functioning of the work and                                                          improvements and maintenance of the required planting; provided,                                            however, that any moneys in excess of that necessary for                                                           correcting, completing and maintaining said work, planting and                                                 improvements will be returned to the surety. Said surety bond may                                           be reduced by resolution of the Building Inspector upon certification                                  to the Board of Trustees that one or more of the particular items                                          required by the Board has been satisfactorily completed, is                                                             functioning properly and the bond, in its reduced amount, is                                                             sufficient to cover the full cost of the remainder of the required                                       planting, work and improvements. 

(4)               The installation of all required improvements shall be under the

direct supervision of a registered architect or licensed engineer, unless this requirement is waived in writing by the Building Inspector.

19) Section 98-133A is repealed and the following new Section 98-133A is enacted:

                        Interpretation. Upon appeal from a decision by the Building Inspector, to                                 hear and decide any matter wherein an appellant alleges or claims that                                   the Building Inspector or any other administrative official, committee or                              board charged with the enforcement of this chapter was in error in issuing                                   or refusing or failing to issue a building permit or certificate of occupancy                           or use or any other permit or license as a result of misinterpreting the                            meaning, intent or application of any Article or part of this chapter,                                            including the exact location of a district boundary line on the Zoning Map. 

            20)      Section 98-133B(1) is repealed and the following new 98-133B(1) is                           enacted:

                        To grant, upon an appeal from a denial of a permit by the Building                                            Inspector, such variance from the terms of this chapter as will not be                            contrary to the public interest where, owing to exceptional and                                        extraordinary circumstances, there are practical difficulties or unnecessary                        hardships in the way of carrying out of the strict letter of this chapter;                                  provided, however, that no such variance shall be granted unless the                           Board finds and documents fully in its findings: 

                        (a)       That there are special physical conditions, such as exceptional                                                 narrowness, shallowness, shape or topographic conditions, or other                            extraordinary or exceptional situation or condition, applying to the                                                 land or building for which the variance is sought, which                                                     circumstances or conditions are peculiar to such land or building                                              and do not apply generally to land or buildings in the neighborhood                                                 and have not resulted from any act of the applicant or any                                                           predecessor in title whether in violation of the provisions hereof or                                            not. 

                        (b)       That, for reasons fully set forth in the findings of the Board, the                                       aforesaid circumstances or conditions are such that the strict                                        application of the provisions of this chapter would deprive the                                              applicant of the reasonable use of such land or building and that                                              the granting of the variance is necessary for the reasonable use of                                         the land or building and that the variance as granted by the Board                                                 is the minimum variance that will accomplish this purpose.

An application for the revocation of a special permit                                              may be brought by the Building Inspector or any other Village                                        authority charged with enforcing the Village Code. 

            22)      Section 98-133C(2)  is repealed and the following new Section 98-133C(2)               is enacted:

Every application for a special permit shall be submitted in 10                             copies and shall contain all the data required in connection with an                                           application for site plan approval unless, following a meeting in person                                with the Planning Board or a duly authorized representative thereof, some                                of the required information is deemed by the said Board to be superfluous.                     The Secretary of the Board of Appeals shall file three copies of the                                                 application with the Building Inspector, who shall provide to the Board,                                    within 14 working days, a full report on any objections it may have with                                     respect to the proposed development and any mitigating measures it may                              feel to be desirable for the protection of the public interest.
