The said local law would supersede N.Y.S. Town Law §24, which fixes the term of Office for the Town Supervisor at two-years.

Ayes: Councilpersons Maturo, Low-Hogan, Troy, Manning

Supervisor Kleiner

Noes: None

The Deputy Town Clerk presented the Affidavit of Publication and the Notice of Posting; copies are labeled Exhibit 07-A-09 and made a part of these minutes.

Summary of public comments:

Gail Raffaele, Tappan, opposes this action. Having lived in Orangetown all her life and having Supervisors elected every two years, she has seen the Town flourish.

Michael Mandel, Pearl River, is in favor of the 4-years. However, there should be a proviso in there of term limits. If we are starting in 2009 for the Town Clerk and 2009 for Highway, it should be 2009 for the Supervisor too.

Catherine Dodge, Orangeburg, said all elected positions should be 4-years. Four years give the voters time to assess the job being done and can vote for or against the candidate. This change should be done as soon as possible for all three positions.

Carol Silverstein, Orangeburg, is completely against the extension of the term of office. The rules regarding the length of office have served everyone well in this Town. She spoke of Jim Dean’s compiled statics on term lengths from every county in New York: 54% of Town Clerks, 48% of Highway Superintendents and 30% of Town Supervisors have 4-year terms.

Eileen Larkin, Palisades, is against the legislation to extend the terms of office of the ones that are on the agenda and she spoke about term limits.

Alex DiMenna, Blauvelt, definitely does not support the increasing of terms for the Supervisor. It has served us well in Orangetown to get fresh perspective every two years.

Ruth Weber, Upper Grandview, said if assured that four-year terms cost less money and an effort on your part could translate into less inflationary play to play politics in Orangetown, such a change might work for the taxpayer’s benefit. In any case, she favors a limit of six or eight years for an elected official.

James Dean, Superintendent of Highways, clarified that based on everyone who had a two-year term, 53% of the communities have already changed the Town Clerk to a four-year term and 48% have already changed the Highway Superintendent. So there is a trend. He believes Stony Point is looking at the same type of extension and it’s going to be on this year’s ballot.

Ayes: Councilpersons Low-Hogan, Troy, Manning, Maturo

Supervisor Kleiner

Noes: None

The Deputy Town Clerk presented the Affidavit of Publication and the Notice of Posting; copies are labeled Exhibit 07-B-09 and made a part of these minutes.

Summary of Public portion:

Gail Raffaele, Tappan, does not think any position in the Town of Orangetown elected should be four years right now.

Carol Silverstein, Blauvelt, said on principle alone, the Superintendent of Highways term, the Town Clerk’s term and definitely the Supervisor’s term should not be extended.

Allan Ryff, Tappan, said reality is in America we have a system, whereby you have a balance of power and the people have the right to vote and they should vote. You have to have a sense of responsibility. The people have the right every so often to say “No” and tonight, I think the people are saying “No”.

Eileen Larkin, Palisades, believes a candidate should know the Town and have a platform prior to running for office. Every elected official should have a term limit and should not be entitled to lifetime health benefits or a pension.

James Dean, Superintendent of Highways, said he really doesn’t want this to be a thing of personalities. The reason Charlotte Madigan and I brought this to the board a few times in the last couple of years is not because it is self-serving. In fact, from a political standpoint for me, it’s fine having a two-term because nobody runs against me. So why would I just leave it this way. Why would I ever want to attract somebody else? But, I really believe truly that it is better for the Town of Orangetown, because we will establish a position that would allow somebody to take the job and do some planning, and I’ll give you a couple of incidences for that. This is, from Charlie and I am talking for Charlie because as you know she is recuperating, she is not here tonight and I did discuss this with her just a little awhile ago. We brought this forward because many times when we’re running for election and when we’re talking to people and when we’re talking about nominations, constantly what comes up is for administrator positions like this why isn’t it a 4-year term. Administrators in most places, if they are not policy making, are four or more year terms, because you need some continuity and you need some stability. If you are running departments, and I think it’s been testified here that the Town Clerk’s department and the Highway department runs pretty well, we stay within our budgets, we try to do the best job we can with the funds that are available, we advocate what we think is necessary for highways. Basically, because I have had the luxury of not having to worry about all my decisions and how it’s going to effect me getting elected two years from now. So, I think there is a lot of reasoning for considering the 4-year term and communities are doing that because they believe its better management. As far as continuity, experience helps expands your knowledge of what the public expects from you. You come in, you hear a few people telling you what they think needs to be done but we’re servicing 50,000 people in the Town of Orangetown. So, you get the opportunity when you are there for awhile to really know what neighborhoods are about and to really understand what people are asking for. I think that is one of reasons we should be bringing this to the vote in November. So that, the entire Town of Orangetown has an opportunity. Personally, I am very much in favor of the 4-year term, because I think it will be a benefit to Orangetown, but if it doesn’t happen, it’s not the end of the world for me. So, I just want to get that part cleared up. It gives you, the person that is in there the ability to develop an understanding of working local government and how local government works. When you are brand new, it’s like being in a maze. I’m talking about budgets. I’m talking about dealing with other agencies, State Department of Transportation, the Comptroller’s office, whoever as an elected official you may have to deal with. It takes awhile to learn that process and we benefit by people that have been through it and have proven to be good at it. The same thing with the Federal and State agencies, we’re working on Federal and State grants now that it takes you two years to learn how to even apply for the grant and I’ve been here along time. Stability, the public gets to know what you are about and the Town Board gets to know what you are about. You control the highway department and the Town Board does by the budget. You can feel comfortable spending money or putting into our fund what we think is necessary. If you decide that you don’t trust the person running that department, you can always pull the strings and say “no” you are not getting the money. So there’s that part of stability. You know what is going on. One thing that gets overlooked many times is employee stability. Employees get to know who they are working for. They get to understand the policies. It’s not changing all the time. I have seen in other communities where actually the employees didn’t like someone who was there for a two-year term and work against him. Because, they figure well two years will get him thrown out. An absolute fact. If you are in a four term and you see that changes need to be made you have the opportunity to implement changes, because it’s not a knee jerk reaction. You can work them in. We have proven that with a number of programs that we have established. It also gives you what I really think is one of the most beneficial points is the ability to do long-term planning. It helps to develop programs based on historical data. We know what the public has expected; we know what services they ask for or what services they don’t want. It gives you the opportunity to actually develop that. You can do better budgeting, if you are looking long-term then trying to hit just particular needs and you are winding up with pikes. Actually, I think it very much encourages managing solving problems and not managing by dealing with crises.

Summary of Public Comments (RTBM)

Gerri Levy, Rockland County Housing Coalition, has been providing entry-level housing (Workforce Housing) for the past 15 years. The Village of Nyack and the Village of Haverstraw has already passed this type of legislation. The Town of Ramapo is already providing workforce housing and the Town of Clarkstown is also entertaining a new zoning designation to allow this housing. Many studies have shown, people can’t afford to live in this County and it’s a problem maintaining volunteers.

Jo-Ann Coffey-Fasulo, Pearl River, asked the board to legally define the meaning of affordable housing. The taxes on workforce housing shouldn’t be subsidized by the other taxpayers. This would steal from others pride and hard work.

Mike Mandel, Pearl River, asked what is the real agenda regarding the workforce housing and he asked it be shelved indefinitely. We need rateables, not subsidize housing. He is against giving $2,500 to the Amazing Grace Circus.

Gail Raffaele, Tappan, said, if OMM can afford $700,000 for a concession stand, they ought to be able to pay their own fees to the Town of Orangetown. She would like to know if an active sewer pipe exists in her backyard. If Nyack has adopted a Workforce Housing Act, then we have it in Orangetown.

Ruth Weber, Upper Grandview, said the Orangetown Workforce Housing Act should be buried. They way to provide affordable housing for all is to lower taxes and clean up government.

Eileen Larkin, Palisades, asked who is paying for the repair of Oaktree Road. Who and when the study of insufficient housing was done. She is concerned about some of the language in the Draft of the Orangetown Workforce Housing Act.

Tom Diviny, Blauvelt, believes the Orangetown Workforce Housing Act is all political. Changing zoning invites outside interest to challenge that zoning.

Don Brenner, an attorney, asked where the Workforce Housing statue is going to apply. There isn’t any MFR zoning left in the Town. He is not against affordable housing.

Mr. Finn, Orangeburg, asked if the Town is liable for a tree that is uprooting his driveway.

Watson Morgan, Blauvelt, believes since Nyack has certain responsibilities for its planning and its direction, the Town shouldn’t be a co-applicant for Riverspace, Inc. This could cause the Town to give up future grant applications.
