Summary of Public Comment:

Michael Mandel, Pearl River, commended the Town Board for the hiring freeze. He said one incident does not justify hiring court officers. Spending can be reduced by eliminating Town owned vehicles being taken home. He asked where the money for Siemen’s escrow, performance and maintenance contracts is going to come from and why are the years 2003-2004 and 72° being used as baselines.

Genevieve Coffey, Pearl River, thanked Jim Dean, and his staff for a superb job this winter. She asked when the required non-existence swales abutting her property will be installed. The FAA Air Space design continues to have negative effects and residents, along with our elected officials should be contacting our new Senator, Kristian Gillibrand.

Sondra Reiss, Sparkill, asked the Town Board to extend the Sparkill zoning to include 617 Main Street. She said there is no demand for small office space while there is a healthy demand for rental apartments.

Eileen Larkin, Palisades, believes the Siemens’ contract needs further discussion and she does not think the Town will benefit from it. She spoke about its Performance Bond and that the Town should have the opportunity to cancel at anytime.

Andrew Wiley, Pearl River, said it was inappropriate to receive a letter to honor Thom Kleiner from Friends of Nyack, a non-profit group, because they receive money from the Town. He spoke about two companies doing the same lighting upgrades and he said contracts and agreements should protect the Town.

Henry Rand and his wife, Beth Rand, Nyack, said half a million gallons of sewage spilled into the Hudson River in Nyack. They asked what kind of Risk Management Plan has been established. They are concerned that notification is not in place for such a disaster.

The Town Board and Ron Delo had a long discussion regarding the cause of the sewage spill, clean up procedures and future preventions. Delo said the Police and the contractor, working on the pump stations, were on site. The County Department of Health and the New York State Department of Conservation were notified. The area was disinfected and cleaned. He also stated he is still investigating what caused the pump station to break and he will report back to the Town Board.
