Supervisor Kleiner State of the Town Address Town of Orangetown

Welcome to the Town of Orangetown’s January 6^th 2003 Organizational Meeting. This is a mid-term report or a summary of where we are and the challenges that lay ahead for this year and beyond. There is no question that we face unprecedented challenges and opportunities in Orangetown, both locally and regionally.

RPC: Our number one priority locally remains the careful development of the surplus land at Rockland Psychiatric Center. The public’s ratification of our decision to buy the surplus property and determine our own destiny, gives us confidence that we’re going in the right direction. We have already put out a request for proposal for an indoor sports facility that will address unmet recreational and bring in tax ratable.

Tonight we expect to send out a second request for proposal for a swimming facility and community center on the banks of Lake Tappan, truly a remarkable site for a municipal facility. Simultaneously with these efforts we will begin to construct a request for proposal to market the difficult center core of the site.

Immediately adjacent to that core is the Broadacres golf course and we are fortunate to have reached a tentative settlement with the Broadacres golf club to have the Town assume the State’s lease with the course and then have the Town assume ownership in several years. Whether the County of Rockland works with us to expand that course to an 18-hole course and take on the challenges of building remediation/demolition is not yet known. But Broadacres golf course will remain as an important amenity in Orangetown.

Providing opportunities for senior housing, whether at RPC, the Mercedes-Benz property or other appropriate site remains a priority. Councilmembers O’Donnell and Manning joined some of us for a tour of units designed by the architect who proposed units at Mercedes and we were favorably impressed. And housing for our younger residents who want to stay in our community, especially our volunteers who contribute so much, will also be sought.

Hamlet Centers and Comp Plan: Efforts are under way to revitalize our hamlet centers, a major goal of our comprehensive plan update. That update will be voted on later this month. Already, improvements have been made in our largest hamlet, Pearl River. New light stanchions are in place and Central Avenue is being readied for parallel parking.

The Orangetown Sewer Department and Highway Department deserve credit for their work that has helped us keep cost down in this regard. But as we have said many times before, these aesthetic changes will help, but revitalization of our main downtown will still need the cooperation and participation of citizens and business leaders.

The newly formed People’s Council in Pearl River, an offshoot of the Chamber of Commerce, will be a great help in these efforts. The revitalization of the last remaining movie theater will also be a great shot in the arm for whatever comes next in Pearl River.

Downtown parking issues will addressed next month. We need to develop better solutions that meet the needs of residents, businesses and commuters. We also need to think ahead to maximized the positive impact of the Secaucus transfer station, scheduled to open later this year.

Route 303 Sustainable Development Study: The completion of the Route 303 Sustainable Development Study, the final draft of which was released on December 23^rd gives us great hope that the most difficult transportation and land use corridor in Orangetown, can be transformed into something that is a model for suburban land use and transportation. The Sustainable Development Study, which uniquely linked land use and its impact on transportation and traffic safety, was a success as a study.

The challenge now is to determine if its results can be implemented. We are hopeful, because of the close working relationship that we have forged with the study partners, New York State Department of Transportation and the New York Metropolitan Transportation Council, that at least some of the major recommendation can be achieved.

Tom Schuetz, the Executive Director of NYMTC came to the press conference announcing the completion of the study on December 23^rd, as did Rich Peters of Region 8 of the New York State DOT.

We expect that a vegetative or treed median on at least the key portions of Route 303, improved landscaping, improved signage, improved safety including left-hand turn signals and lanes at intersections will happen. The biggest ticket item, the reconfiguration and realignment of the Orangetown Road Bridge with Route 340 in Orangeburg, is a long-term goal, but is obviously dependent on financing and the state of our economy.

Water Crisis: Regionally, it now appears that even non-drought conditions will not cure our water woes. Information provided to us by Nick Christie-Blick of Lamont indicates that a drought only focuses our attention on a problem that must be solved by better control of development patterns. It is not enough to conserve water. The impact of development on our water supply must be evaluated in every large development project. A Water Committee has been set up in Orangetown to do just that. Eileen Larkin, Watson Morgan, Fran Oldenburger and Mr. Blick have already expressed interest in serving.

Millennium Pipeline: The Millennium Pipeline, which is an issue that is really quite new to Orangetown residents. We must, however, continue a united front of opposition to any plan that proposes to locate the pipeline here. The Pipeline is already constructed to Haverstraw. The issue now is whether it should cross the Haverstraw Bay and continues into Westchester or be diverted south possibly along the Palisades Interstate Parkway across Tallman Mountain Park across the Piermont Marsh, crossing the Hudson at that point. This latter option, actually one of three proposed, is not only bad for Orangetown residents but is unnecessarily disruptive of major parts of Rockland County that did not anticipate such a disruption. Joan Konner from Palisades recently sent an article from a Toledo, Ohio paper that catalogued the dangers of pipelines.

Indian Point: We will continue to urge the closing of the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant and put pressure on our fellow elected officials to do the same.

TZ Bridge: The final regional issue is the one with the most far-reaching implications for Orangetown, the River Villages and the region: the future of the Tappan Zee Bridge. A 31-page scoping document has just been released by the study team and it is quite comprehensive. The inclusion of such things has the impact of any new structure on the view shed of the Hudson.

The fact that the Hudson is a designated national historic river and the fact that aesthetics must be taken into account in any new plan is encouraging. The scoping document emphasizes four issues: the need to solve congestion in the region, the service of the bridge for “defense” highways, the aging structure of the bridge and the lack of mobility, e.g. mass transit.

This emphasis certainly suggests that a replacement of the Bridge is likely to be a preferred option. If that is the case, the challenge is to insure that any new structure takes into account the unique, natural surroundings of the Hudson River and its environs and that that part of the analysis is given great weight in the final determination. We must insure that if a mass transit component, i.e. passenger rail, is preferred, that there is money to support it. Otherwise, as critics of Robert Moses discovered decades before, additional highway lanes will only provide the opportunity for more, not less congestion.

Efficient Government: Along with these unprecedented planning issues we will continue to keep Orangetown one of the leanest, most efficient municipalities in Rockland County with fewer Town employees per capita than any other municipality. Our employees and departments have done a great job containing costs and doing more with less. Some examples:

Police Department: The department advocated for and, with the assistance of Congressman Gilman, was awarded a grant to allow us to have youth officers in our schools four days a week. The police administration has worked with us to make these changes by reorganizing the force without the need to increase person power. In fact, the number of officers is at its most efficient level ever.

Highway Department: The department continues to do its excellent job under difficult conditions. Because Superintendent Jim Dean fought for a responsible capital program and the Town Board has accommodated most of his requests, the condition of the fleet is excellent. So, during the last difficult snow and ice storm, only one of our trucks was out of service, a rate that far exceeded other municipalities.

Parks: Aside from the obvious challenges of RPC, the parks department continues to advocate for the upkeep and improvement of our existing parks. The Town Board has authorized a modest bond issue that will address some of our most pressing needs: among them: new surfacing for the Independence Park tennis courts, a new showmobile.

Attorney: Jim Riley and Tom O’Connor along with the town attorney’s office have worked with the Board to pass a comprehensive property maintenance law & are working to close on the RPC property. Despite all this, there is less work farmed out to outside counsel than ever before.

Building Department: Director John Giardiello is working with the Rockland Economic Development Corporation to computerize the permitting and approval process so that permits can be granted over the Internet.

Sewer: Director Bob Beckerle and the engineering department continue to assist us with the latest G.I.S. technology, which will be important in evaluating RPC and other planning proposals.

Assessor, Receiver, Clerk, Town Justice: These offices are performing at their typically high standards.

Finance: The Department has reaped its sixth consecutive Government Finance Officers Association award. Credit is due to current finance director Charlie Richardson and chief accountant Barbara Feld.

Land Use Boards: Charlie Richardson, as many of you know, was appointed following a merit selection process that has served the town well. We also strive, through this kind of a process, to strengthen our land use boards through strong, independent appointments. Not all of this can be accomplished in any one year, but we pledge that progress will be made.

For all of these challenges, local and regional, we seek your input, your ideas and your vision as we try to make Orangetown an even greater place to live, work and raise our families.

Councilman Fisher said “I firmly believe that each of us comes to our position on the Town Board with our strengths, and weaknesses. It is my clear belief that each of us comes with the sole purpose of serving the people of Orangetown. We must set aside our personal agendas, which we carry with us. We must look at all issues we face-as a cohesive group and not as five individuals. We can truly make a positive difference with the following 1. The redevelopment of Rockland Psychiatric Center. 2. A tax neutral Rockland Psychiatric Center. 3. Development of ball fields. 4. A pool. 5. A full service recreational center. 6. Senior Housing with a full and comprehensive study of needs and cost of Senior Housing.”

The Town board had a discussion regarding the Town Pool and the Request for Qualifications for Design Services for this facility. Questions were asked re specifying price range and the scope of the community center. The Town Board further discussed the pool and feels the Draft does not reflect the description nor does it include enough information to decipher the costs that would be involved in building the pool or the Community Center. Councilman Fisher added that he believes that the facility should not be given an amount but rather be able to give architectural account without the confines of an amount. Mr. Rose indicated that he believes a broad prospect should include components as well as dollars. The Town Board after, a discussion, decided that the specifics needed for the RFP’s should be included.

Councilman Fisher asked that all Councilmembers set aside their personal agendas to give individual talents for the betterment of Orangetown. Regional issues must be addressed as well as local issues, particularly Rockland Psychiatric Center, Swimming Pool, Senior Housing, Broadacres, Comp Plan and decisions regarding the Land Use Boards.
