Joshua Ringel, Village Manager
Village of Briarcliff Manor
Briarcliff Manor Village Hall
1111 Pleasantville Road
Briarcliff Manor, New York 10510
RE: Village of Briarcliff Manor – Tax Certiorari Special Counsel Proposal
Dear Mr. Ringel:
Please accept this letter, as well as the attached information, as my proposal to serve as Special
Counsel to the Village of Briarcliff Manor for its tax certiorari proceedings.
I will provide tax certiorari special counsel services to the Village of Briarcliff Manor, which are
anticipated to include, but not be limited to, the following: review and analysis of pending
proceedings, including the analyses of appraisals and other property information; advising the
Village on pending cases, proposed settlements, and potential future settlements (for both
assessment and refund impacts); intervention and participation in the defense of tax certiorari
proceedings pending against the Village; communications and meetings with Village, Town and
School District personnel and counsel, appraisers and Petitioners’ counsel; and Court appearances.
Working with Town and School District personnel and counsel (several of whom I have worked
with for many years1), I will enhance and strengthen the defense of the tax certiorari proceedings.
With a stronger defense, I anticipate that we will be able to resolve proceedings on more favorable
terms, saving the Village money in refunds. Furthermore, I will provide information to the Village
on pending proceedings, including proposed and potential future settlements, assessment reductions
and refunds. This information will enable the Village to incorporate this information into its
planning; moreover, this will give the Village the ability to provide me with feedback, so that I can
work to structure settlements for the Village’s maximum benefit (or minimized loss), as the
situation may call for (e.g., payment plans, timing for refund management, etc.)
1
I have worked with Marc Sharff, whose firm represents the Briarcliff Manor School District, since we were both at
Plunkett & Jaffe in the mid-1990s; currently, Marc’s firm represents the Harrison School District, and I represent the
Town/Village of Harrison, and we work together defending their pending tax certiorari proceedings. The Town of
Ossining’s tax certiorari trial counsel, Dan Vincelette, is my co-tax certiorari counsel for the Pocantico Hills School
District, which is partially in the Town of Mount Pleasant (where I have worked with the Assessor, Jim Timmings,
and Chris Feldman, from the Town Attorney’s office, for years as well).

I propose to represent the Village of Briarcliff Manor as Special Counsel for its tax certiorari
proceedings at the rate of $140.00 per hour. In addition, the Village would be billed for any direct
expenses, such as appraisal fees, overnight delivery charges and large copying projects that cannot
be performed in-office. Wherever possible, the invoices for such expenses will be forwarded to the
Village for direct payment. The Village will not be billed for non-itemized expenses, such as phone
calls, local mileage, and minor copying.
For your reference, I am enclosing my resume, as well as a detail of the municipalities I have
represented in tax certiorari proceedings.
I hope that the terms of my proposal meet with your approval. If so, please acknowledge your
acceptance by signing this letter in the space indicated below and returning it to me.
I look forward to representing the Village of Briarcliff Manor in its tax certiorari proceedings.
Thank you for your consideration.
Very truly yours,
Ira S. Levy
