would be a special referendum for the Board of Education to purchase a house for additional land
next door to Colonial Elementary School.
Trustee Kagan supported the purchase of the property for Colonial School and said it is a once in a
generation opportunity to acquire a property adjacent to a school. He thanked Lt. Green who's been
meeting with Hutchinson School’s Principal Fitzgerald about the new arrival and dismissal plan for
Hutchinson School during the construction. He congratulated Officers Ripulone and DiNapoli for their
successful graduation of the Westchester County Police Academy. He finished his report by thanking
Chief Pallett for working on replacing the body armor for the Police Department and submitting for a
grant that paid back about 50% of the cost of the armor for the officers.
Trustee Kamal Eldahry had nothing to report.

Mayor Mullen reiterated the June 18th School Board vote and asked residents to please get out and

that took place in the Village. He said the Village had received a letter from the Netflix producers
saying how grateful they were and how excited they are to come back at some point.
He gave an update on the RFP process with Pelham House and said it is in a bit of a holding pattern
right now as the developers are working with the Village’s consultants, Peter F. Gaito & Associates.
He thanked them and said they had been doing a really good job.
Mayor Mullen congratulated Woods Johnson on receiving his Eagle Scout Award. The project is
related to the Highbrook Highline and the Young Avenue Field which will be budgeted for in the
capital fund.
He then read aloud a submitted letter regarding LGBTQ rights in the Village of Pelham.
Item # 7 – Public Comments

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
The Board of Trustees of the Village of Pelham will hold a public hearing at the regular meeting of the
Board of Trustees at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 11, 2019 in Village Hall, 195 Sparks Avenue,
Pelham, New York, on a proposed local law that, if adopted, would amend the code of the Village of
Pelham as follows:
Proposed Local Law # 3 of 2019 amending Chapter 19 of the Village Code (Real Property
Taxes Assessment) to ensure that residential parcels converting to a condominium form of
ownership do not obtain more favorable assessment status, which, if permitted, would
unfairly increase the property tax burden to owners of property in a conventional form of
ownership.
A copy of the proposed Local Law is on file in the office of the Village Clerk and may be viewed
during normal business hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., or an electronic copy may be obtained from

Item # 10 – Resolution Adopting Local Law No. 3 of 2019 Amending Chapter 19 of the Village
Code (Real Property Taxes Assessment) Regarding Real Property Taxes Assessment of
Converted Condominiums
Resolution Adopting Local Law No. 3 of 2019 Amending Chapter 19 of the Village Code (Real
Property Taxes Assessment) Regarding Real Property Taxes Assessment of Converted
Condominiums
Whereas, the Board of Trustees of the Village of Pelham has proposed a local law to amend Chapter
19 of the Village Code (Real Property Taxes Assessment) Regarding Real Property Taxes
Assessment of Converted Condominiums to ensure that residential parcels converting to a
condominium form of ownership do not obtain more favorable assessment status, which, if permitted,
would unfairly increase the property tax burden to owners of property in a conventional form of
ownership.
Whereas, the Board of Trustees of the Village of Pelham has determined that the adoption of the
local law is a Type II Action and are therefore not subject to the requirements of the State
Environmental Quality Review Act (“SEQRA”) and;
Whereas, a notice of public hearing was duly advertised in the Journal News, the official newspaper
of the Village of Pelham; and
Whereas, said public hearing was held on June 11, 2019 at or about 7:30 PM at Village Hall, 195
Sparks Avenue, Pelham, NY and all parties in attendance were permitted an opportunity to speak on
behalf of or in opposition to said proposed local law or any part thereof.
Now, therefore, be it resolved, as follows:
1. The Board of Trustees hereby adopts Local Law No. 3 of 2019 Amending Chapter 19 of the
Village Code (Real Property Taxes Assessment) Regarding Real Property Taxes
Assessment of Converted Condominiums;
2. The Board of Trustees directs the Village Clerk to prepare said Law for filing with the
Secretary of State.

Item # 11 – Discussion on Proposed Fair Share Mitigation Local Law
Mayor Mullen opened the discussion on the proposed fair share mitigation local law. He explained
that he had been in consultation with the Village Attorneys on how to establish a fair share mitigation
fee, so that developers who are interested in developing in our downtown can help contribute to the
infrastructure impact of their projects, impacts related to traffic, stormwater drainage and sewer
systems, any infrastructure needs the Village has. He said our engineering consultant has been
working with the Village Attorneys to develop a formula whereby the Village can fairly assess that fee
for each development project.
Deputy Mayor Kagan suggested Village Attorney, Ed Smith attend a meeting to further discuss this
potential local law. He said it would be helpful to understand where this fits in the process.
Trustee Carpenter asked if the Village Attorney could walk the Board through an example or two so
they can understand how the fee structure works.

Board of Trustees Regular Meeting Tuesday, June 11, 2019
Item # 12 – Discussion on Proposed Capital Budget for Fiscal Year 2019-20
Village Administrator Small proposed a capital improvement list to the Board of Trustees.
Capital Improvement List
• $160,000 Public Works – Purchase of a Dump Truck
(Truck $100,000/Plow and Sander $59,000). Replacement of pre-owned vehicle that is in
dilapidated condition. DPW Truck #5 is a pre-owned truck purchased by the Village of Pelham in
2007 or 2008. It has over 125,000 miles and has reached its useful life.
• $100,000 Young Avenue Field Engineering and Remediation
Last summer sinkholes were found at the field. Tests determined an elevated slab of concrete near
the immediate area of the sinkhole spanning approximately 200 feet to the east. The area needs to
be excavated to remove the slab, backfill and compact soil.
• $250,000 Funding to augment CHIPS funding for street paving and pothole
repair
CHIPS funding has not increased this year. Each year, the Department of Public Works assesses
roadway conditions and repairs potholes and streets as funding permits.
• $278,181 SSES Study Match
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is reviewing a request to change the scope of their grant
from stormwater improvement to a Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Study. The federal amount of the
project is $340,000 and the local match is $278,181.
• $150,000 Police Communication System
Mandatory replacement of copper lines to fiber optics.
• $41,000 Livescan Fingerprint. Identification System
Replace end of life and support of NY State by 2020
• $90,000 Replacement of 2 high mileage vehicles
Police Vehicles are used 24/7 with significant wear and tear due to frequent start and stop driving. It
is necessary to replace these vehicles periodically on a scheduled basis.
• $36,500 Turnout Gear Replacement
Protective Clothing and Equipment is essential for the Fire Department. This project will replenish 3
sets of turnout gear, provide SCBA cylinder replacements, rope replacements, extrication ram and
communication equipment.
Mayor Mullen said because the Board has to make a decision on these items at the July meeting, he
asked the Trustee liaisons to meet with their Department Heads and see if there is another way to
fund any of these items, if they must it be done immediately and if not, a timeframe for when they
would have to be addressed.
