MEMO
TO: Mayor Luis A. Marino
Trustees, Port Chester Board of Village Trustees
CC: Anthony Cerreto, Village Attorney
Curt Lavalla, Director of Planning
RE: CD5/5W/6/6T Committee Foci
Mayor & Board,
At your last agenda meeting you instructed staff to compose notes of the conversation had by
trustees relating to the CD5/5W/6/6T character districts and the foci that such potential
members of an advisory committee should be asked to take into consideration.
Within the scope of YOUR guidance, the committee may be asked to review a list of items. An
example of such a list, like below, is in no way exhaustive but, I believe, encapsulates the
broad strokes of that conversation and the information documented in the attached minutes
prepared by the Village Attorney and Village Clerk sent you under separate cover:
• Building Heights
• Parking Ratios
• Shared Parking
• Green Space/ Park Space/ Fees In Lieu Of Park
• Lot Lines/ Setbacks
• Elected Official Participation
• Developer Participation
• Public Meetings/ Public Comment Period
• Timeframe: 1st Draft Presentation Date/ Timeframe: Final Opinion Presentation Date
• Date To Award Planning Consultant RFP
• Comprehensive Plan Update
The consensus that I have received from the board on this matter is that a more robust
conversation is intended to be had as part of your special meeting confirmed for Monday July
17th. The staff is more than capable of aiding as part of the discussion but the conversation
between the trustees is paramount and necessary to effectuate any path forward.

Please see below.
WORKSHOP
Form-Base Code Discussion
Trustee Dorazio asked to provide some direction for the Committee. He
suggested that the committee members review- heights, setbacks,
parking, traffic, and greenspace. He believes a committee should be
formed to review the form-based code as a whole, and move into the
character districts after.
Trustee Dorazio strongly believes anyone that is suing the Village, an
Elected Official, or sits on another Board should not be on this committee.
Relatives also should not be considered. The consultant would be there
for guidance, advisory, and a resource of information about the topics.
Trustee Carvin believes process is important. He would like a summary of
what is discussed to frame the Boards discussion better and to provide
clear direction to the Committee.
Trustee Carvin suggests a 3-month time-period, with the option for 1-
month extension. Would like the Board to consider examine an affordable
housing alternative. He would like to see the Committee choose their own
1 chair. Trustee Carvin would like to see analysis is performed to backup the
Committee’s recommendations. He would like to see the IDA be a
secondary resource.
Trustee Grangenois-Thomas would like to see someone assist with taking
notes and guiding the conversation for the Board. She also would like to
see the ARB reconstituted.
Trustee Allen agrees the ARB should be reconstituted, and as their first
task, they could review the form-based code and provide feedback for the
role the ARB could play.
Trustee Alzate would like to see an overall plan be put together, instead of
piece-meal district by district. This is in line with Trustee Dorazio’s
comment to review the Form Based code first as a whole. Trustee Alzate
is not opposed to having Elected Officials on the committee.
The Village Manager mentioned public comment. The public could attend
the meeting but structure should be provided. Trustee Grangenois-
Thomas agrees that the public could attend and make comments for the
first few meetings, and after that just attend to listen in but not comment.

Trustee Dorazio
The committee should review the Code as a whole first before going through the individual zoning
districts.
Topics that should be reviewed, but not limited to the following:
- building height
parking
traffic
green space
set-backs
Members of the committee can be residents or nonresidents who are stakeholders.
Members should not be:
current elected officials, village or school district
T persons suing the village
persons related to members of the Board
members of the Port Chester IDA
Trustee Carvin
Village staff should frame the issues and summarize Board discussion
The committee should have a short life-span, say 3 months.
Membership on the committee should be open to all who wish to serve.
Trustee Grangenois-Thomas
Board needs to reactivate the ARB which should have a more robust role.
Trustee Dorazio
Agrees with Trustee Grangenois-Thomas’ comments.
Trustee Allen
Agrees with Trustee Grangenois-Thomas’ comments about the ARB and that the Board make it the first-
priority
Trustee Alzate
Board needs to have a Strategic Plan. Not opposed to having elected officials on the committee.
Trustee Carvin
Process is important. The committee should elect its own chair and establish its own rules of procedure.
The role of the consultant should be established. The committee’s role should be advisory only. The
committee should provide the opportunity for public comment but with some limitations.
The committee’s recommendations should contain some back-up analysis.

Paul Gerardi
