Item # 14 – Adopting Tax Exempt Bond Post Issuance Compliance Policy
Mayor Volpe stated that Jeffery Storch, Bond Counsel for the Village has requested the Board adopt
a Tax Exempt Bond Post Issuance Compliance Policy. Trustee Kagan asked if the Village
Administrator is qualified to be the Compliance Officer. A brief discussion took place on the topic
however the Mayor felt the item should be tabled so that the questions raised at the meeting could be
sent to Bond Counsel for clarification.
Resolution Adopting Tax Exempt Bond Post Issuance Compliance Policy
Whereas, the Internal Revenue Service has issued new regulations requiring issuers of tax-exempt
obligations to certify on Form 8038-G that they actively monitor compliance with federal tax rules
following the issuance of such obligations; and
Whereas, the Village is an occasional issuer of tax-exempt obligations and thus is subject to the
aforementioned compliance requirements which are critical for the preservation of preferential tax
status of those obligations; and
Whereas, it is therefore in the best interest of the Village to adopt formal written procedures to ensure
such compliance and to designate an official responsible for ensuring that such procedures are
followed.
Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Pelham hereby adopts
the post-issuance compliance procedures attached hereto as “Schedule A” and resolves to be
governed thereby; and
Be it further resolved, that this resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.

Resolution Amending § 90-46 Schedule VII: Speed Regulations, as Authorized by § 90-10
Speed Regulations to Set the Maximum Speed Limits on Wolfs Lane, Fifth Avenue, Nyac
Avenue and Fourth Avenue to 25 Miles Per Hour
Whereas, the Board of Trustees has determined that parking and/or traffic conditions on certain
streets in the Village of Pelham create a greater risk of accidents and in some cases have in fact
caused accidents; and
Whereas, Wolfs Lane and Fifth Avenue often carry very heavy traffic and in the business areas these
streets are often lined with parked cars and trucks; and
Whereas, many pedestrians including but not limited to students walking to and from school and
people in the Village to shop, to take advantage of the services offered by the Village’s local
businesses and to enjoy meals at the local restaurants often cross Wolfs Lane and Fifth Avenue; and
Whereas, Nyac Avenue often carries heavy traffic because many people use the street to drive
students to both Pelham Middle School and Pelham Memorial High School, and many drivers use the
street to avoid the traffic controls and heavy traffic on Wolfs Lane; and
Whereas, many students walk along Nyac Avenue on their way to and from the Pelham Middle
School and Pelham Memorial High School; and
Whereas, Fourth Avenue carries increased traffic as drivers of motor vehicles use it to avoid the
traffic and traffic controls in the business district along Fifth Avenue; and
Whereas, the Board of Trustees has determined that lowering the maximum speed limit on Wolfs
Lane, Fifth Avenue, Nyac Avenue and Fourth Avenue will benefit the health, safety and welfare of the
public by reducing the chance of accidents.
Now, therefore, be it resolved, that § 90-46 Schedule VII: Speed regulations, as authorized by § 90-
10 Speed regulations, is amended to state that the following streets have a maximum speed limit of
25 miles per hour: Wolfs Lane, Fifth Avenue, Nyac Avenue and Fourth Avenue.
