JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: GOOD EVENING EVERYONE HOW'S EVERYBODY DOING UM SO WE'RE GOING BACK TO THE FORMAT THAT WE STARTED ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO WITH A COMPARISON FINANCIAL REPORT OF 2022 RESULTS WERE SIX MONTHS THROUGH 2021 FOR LAST YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WITHIN THE PAST, WE HAD BEEN BLESSED TWO YEARS WE'RE GOING KIND OF DO THE CODE, WE WERE HITTING THE HOT BUTTON ITEMS REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES AND WHERE WE CAN HAVE SAVINGS AND POTENTIAL.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW REVENUE INCREASES THIS YEAR WE'RE KIND OF GOING BACK TO THE TRADITIONAL FORMAT IT'S ALWAYS A WORK IN PROGRESS GREG AND I TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO, JUST ABOUT KIND OF TWEAKING THE PRESENTATION OVERALL.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO FOR TONIGHT WE'RE GOING TO DO A SIX MONTH COMPARISON REPORT FOR THE GENERAL FUND, WHICH IS THE CHIEF FINANCE CHILL FUN OF THE CITY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: JUST KEEP IN MIND, THESE ARE NOT AUDITED RESULTS, THESE ARE NOT FINAL RESULTS WE GO BACK SOMETIMES MAKE ADJUSTING ENTRIES THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: BUT, TO THE BEST OF OUR KNOWLEDGE IT'S THE MOST ACCURATE INFORMATION WE HAVE WE DON'T FEEL LIKE WE'RE MISSING ANYTHING EARTH SHATTERING AND.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OBVIOUSLY, ONE NOTE ABOUT THE THE SIX MONTHS REPORT THERE'S ANYTHING THAT THE COUNCIL NEEDS TO BE AWARE OF PRIOR TO THAT WE'RE ON TOP OF THINGS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: NOTHING IS GOING TO COME OUT AND BLINDSIDE US AT ANY POINT AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HEAR DURING THIS PRESENTATION YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT IT WAY SOONER THAN THAT SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, I'M GOING TO SHARE MY SCREEN AND WE'LL KIND OF GO THROUGH THESE NUMBERS.

OKAY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY, SO THIS IS THE REPORT THAT WE'VE TYPICALLY DONE IN THE PAST, THANK YOU CAROLYN FOR THE PICTURE FOR MY PRESENTATION.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND THE FIRST, OF COURSE, THAT'S NOT GOING TO WORK LET'S TRY THIS AGAIN THERE WE GO OKAY, SO THE FIRST FEW PAGES IS BASICALLY MY REVIEW OF THE NUMBERS, WHICH I WILL GO OVER WITH YOU NOW SO FOR PURPOSES OF THIS PRESENTATION WILL FOCUS ON THIS SCREEN.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: JUST LIKE A SCROLL DOWN A LITTLE BIT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: JUST TO JUST TO LET EVERYBODY KNOW I MEAN THIS IS ALL IN THE AGENDA PACKAGE, WHICH IS ALSO ONLINE, SO IF ANYBODY WANTS TO FURTHER INFORMATION IT'S ALL THERE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND FOLLOWING ALONG YEAH I'M GONNA FOLLOW ALONG TO MY OTHER COMPUTER BECAUSE THE FONT IS LITTLE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND, ONCE AGAIN, THESE ARE VERY HIGH LEVEL NUMBERS AND I MENTIONED THE END OF MY PRESENTATION IF THERE'S ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: REQUIRE FURTHER DETAIL ON OR HAVE QUESTIONS ON OBVIOUSLY IF I CAN'T ANSWER TONIGHT YOU CAN ALWAYS EMAIL ME OR CALL ME, AND THAT GOES FOR RESIDENTS AS WELL IF THEY HAVE QUESTIONS, THEY CAN ALWAYS EMAIL US.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO WE WILL START ON THE REVENUE SIDE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: 22 GENERAL FUND REVENUES ARE UP ABOUT 1.5 MILLION OR 4.7% COMPARED TO THE SAME POINT OF LAST YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: PROPERTY TAX REVENUES, WHICH IS THE LARGEST COMPONENT OF THE INCREASE IN REVENUES INCREASED BY BY $806,000 WHICH IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE TAX RATE INCREASE AND ALSO PENALTIES AND INTEREST ON PROPERTY TEXAS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OVERALL SALES TAXES DOWN ABOUT 19,000, THIS IS THE FIRST QUARTER RESULTS, WHICH REPRESENTS A PERIOD OF MARCH THROUGH MAY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO, ACTUALLY, LET ME TAKE THAT BACK FOR A SECOND I THINK THAT'S THE PERIOD THAT IS ENDING FEBRUARY DECEMBER THROUGH FEBRUARY THAT'S THE FIRST QUARTER BASICALLY WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN A SECOND QUARTER, YET THAT COMES IN AUGUST AND.

[00:15:10]

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: LAST YEAR WE CAME IN AND AROUND A LITTLE LESS THAN $4 MILLION SO PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT THIS WILL MEET BUDGET EXPECTATIONS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MORTGAGE TAX ANOTHER ITEM THAT'S AGAIN VERY DIFFICULT TO PREDICT IS UP ABOUT $200,000 190 9,021.7% COMPARED TO LAST YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AS HOMEOWNERS CONTINUE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU KNOW IT STARTS WITH LOW INTEREST RATES, THE PERIOD FOR THIS MORTGAGE TAX REVENUE IS OCTOBER OF 21 THROUGH.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MARCH OF 22 SO WE'RE SEEING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS, THEY ARE THE CALENDAR YEAR FOR THE MORTGAGE TAX RUNS THROUGH SEPTEMBER SO I'VE SEEN THE NUMBERS FROM.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MAY THROUGH JUNE AND THEY STILL LOOK STRONG COMPARED TO PRIOR YEARS THERE'S NOTHING THAT LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT WE WILL NOT HIT OUR NUMBER OF $1,750,000 WE WILL PROBABLY EXCEED THIS NUMBER.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: EVEN IF WE HAVE AN OFF MONTH WE'RE STILL GOING TO EXCEED SUMMER BY AT LEAST A COUPLE OF HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THIS ITEM IS, DO WE EXCEED BUDGET EXPECTATIONS THAT THEY SAID FOR 22 BUT WILL NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT DURING THE BUDGET SEASON GIVEN HIGHER INTEREST RATES TO PROPERTY OWNERS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OTHER NON PROPERTY TAXES, INCREASED ABOUT $45,000 ABOUT 16% WITH INCREASES IN HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAXES OF 18,000 AND CHANGE AND UTILITY TAXES ABOUT 29,000 UTILITY TAXES, OBVIOUSLY RELATE TO ELECTRICITY, FOR THE MOST PART CANDIDATES AND GAS AND WATER.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND OUR HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAX HAD A REALLY STRONG FIRST SIX MONTHS OF THE YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MOVING ON TO CHARGES FOR SERVICES, WHICH IS MADE UP OF RECREATION FEES LAND NEWS FEEDS PARKING METER FEES AND VINYL RECORD FEES INCREASED BY ABOUT 250 $6,000 ALMOST 27% INCREASE WAS LED BY AN INCREASE IN THE DAY CAMP FEES 180 $6,000 WITH A FULL DAY CAMP SCHEDULE FOR 2022.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WITH THAT BEING SAID, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, WE HAVE A FULL YEAR OF REVENUES WHICH MEANS IN THE THIRD QUARTER MOSTLY JULY AND AUGUST EXPECT TO SEE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: ADDITIONAL EXPENSES THAT WE DIDN'T DIDN'T HAVE LAST YEAR, WITH THE FULL SLATE OF CAMP ACTIVITIES SO DURING THE THIRD QUARTER REPORT, YOU MIGHT SEE THAT NUMBER SPIKE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OTHER SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS, THE OVERALL REVENUE INCREASE WHERE THE SEWER LATERAL CERTIFICATE FEE, WHICH IS NEW IN 2020 TO.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: $40,000 AND THIS HELPS OFFSET THE COST OF THIRD PARTY REVIEWS OF HOOKUPS THE SEWER LATERAL AND PARKING METER FEES ARE UP ABOUT $45,000 AS ACTIVITY AND CONTINUES TO COME BACK TO DOWNTOWN AND COMMUTERS HAVE BEEN RETURNING TO NEW YORK CITY TO WORK.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: INTEREST AND INVESTMENT INCOME IS DOWN SLIGHTLY ABOUT $3,000 AND OBVIOUSLY THIS DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THE 225 BASIS POINTS OVER THE LAST SIX MONTHS THAT HAS OCCURRED WILL PROBABLY SEE AN UPTICK FOR THE LAST TWO QUARTERS OF THE YEAR FOR INTEREST INCOME.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND AGAIN, THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A ANOTHER SOURCE A SIGNIFICANT SOURCE OF REVENUE FOR 2023 AS WE BUDGETED VERY LOW OF $50,000 IN 2022.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND AGAIN, NO REAL SURPRISES HERE LICENSES AND PERMITS REVENUES ARE UP BUT AT $2,000.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MOSTLY ATTRIBUTED INCREASES IN FILMING PERMIT REVENUE THIS YEAR WE'VE HAD A COUPLE OF LARGE PROJECTS OF $50,000 AND BUILDING PERMIT REVENUE IS $42,000 AGAIN BUILDING PERMIT REVENUE IS ON PACE TO MEET BUDGETED EXPECTATIONS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: FINDING FORFEITURES ARE ABOUT 16 $1,000 OR 19% FAMILY DO TO INCREASE IN PARKING FINES OF 48,000 AND WE CAN TRAFFIC FINES OF ABOUT $8,000.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND THEN TRY AND MAKE THIS SIMPLER WE KIND OF LUMPED EVERYTHING ELSE INTO OTHER INCOME CLUES IN OUR GOVERNMENT CHARGES USE OF MONEY AND PROPERTY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OTHER THAN INTEREST INCOME DONATIONS INTERPHONE REVENUES SALES AND LOSS COMPENSATION STATE AND FEDERALLY THESE REVENUES OVERALL INCREASED BY ABOUT $107,000 21%.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: LED BY AN INCREASE IN POLICE OVERTIME REIMBURSEMENT OF $66,000 TO TO CONTINUE TO TILLY PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY, WE SOLD SOME ARMY SURPLUS EQUIPMENT FOR 21,000 AND WE'RE HAVING A COUPLE OF ADDITIONAL WORKERS COMPENSATION RECOVERIES, WHICH LEADS TO ABOUT $16,000 OVER LAST YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO OVERALL THAT'S BASED ON THE REVENUE SIDE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I CAN ANSWER THEM AND WE CAN MOVE ON TO EXPENDITURES.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WITH WORKMAN'S COMP RECOVERY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WE GET A PERCENTAGE OF THE EMPLOYEE SALARY WHEN THEY'RE OUT ON WORKERS COMPENSATION CITY STILL HAS TO PAY, SO THERE IS A REIMBURSEMENT FOR SOME OF THAT FROM THE.

[00:20:11]

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: OKAY, THANK YOU OKAY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MOVING ON TO THE EXPENDITURE SIDE EXPENDITURES ARE UP ABOUT $820,000 OR 4.9% COMPARED TO THE 2021 EXPENDITURES.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: START WITH THE TWO LARGEST COMPONENTS OBVIOUSLY OVERALL SALARIES AND WAGES INCREASED ABOUT 450 7000 OR 6% IN 2022 COMPARED TO 21.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THIS IS A BASICALLY A RESULT OF ABOUT FOUR VACANT POSITIONS THAT HAVE BEEN FILLED IN 22 THAT WERE VACANT LAST YEAR, A PG POSITIONS THERE'S ALSO SOME FIRE POSITIONS AND SOME CPW POSITIONS, IT ALSO ACCOUNTS FOR THE BUDGET, IT INCREASES THAT ARE CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGATED.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: FOR ALL OF THE SETTLED UNION CONTRACTS SO WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAR OF BUDGET, CERTAINLY IN 2023 BUT RIGHT NOW BUDGETED FOR THESE AMOUNTS WE KNEW WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO BE, WE KNEW ABOUT THESE VACANT POSITIONS LAST YEAR WHEN WE GET THE BUDGET, SO THE SALARIES THERE'S NO SURPRISES HERE WE EXPECT THEM TO BE YOU KNOW WITHIN OUR BUDGET.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAH SO I JUST WE JUST MENTIONED.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WE HAVE BENEFITS BECAUSE THAT'S THE OTHER LARGE ONE THAT INCREASED ABOUT $280,000 MOSTLY DUE TO INCREASES IN EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE SO 170 7000.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WHICH IS BASICALLY A RESULT OF THE NEW HIRES THAT WE JUST TALKED ABOUT MORE EMPLOYEES MORE HEALTH INSURANCE COSTS, AND OF COURSE INCREASE IN THE INTEREST RATE IN THE PREMIUM RATES.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: RETIREE HEALTH CARE ISSUANCE COSTS WENT UP INSURANCE COSTS 170 6000 AS A RESULT OF ADDITIONAL RETIREMENTS THERE'LL BE MORE RETIREES, WHICH MEANS THAT DRIVES UP THE PRICE OF YOUR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: RETIREMENT EXPENSE AND OF COURSE INCREASE RATES AS WELL FICA EXPENSE WENT UP BY ABOUT $34,000 RELATED TO THE INCREASE IN SALARIES AND AGAIN WE HAD ANOTHER GOOD YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OF WORKERS COMPENSATION WE'RE NOW UNDER 1% FOR OUR EXPERIENCE RATING OR SO IT'S ABOUT I THINK WAS POINT NINE 8% SO.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT CAUSED OUR WORKERS COMP NUMBER TO DROP ABOUT $115,000 WHICH OFFSET SOME OF THESE INCREASES.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AGAIN 2022 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS TAXES THROUGH JUNE 30 ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE MASTER BE BUDGETED NOT WORRIED ABOUT ANYTHING AND AGAIN WILL PROBABLY COME IN A LITTLE LOW DUE TO THE WORKERS COMP SAVINGS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT NUMBER OF 115,000 IT WILL RALLY PROBABLY ABOUT $100,000 OF OVERALL SAVINGS WHEN THE YEARS OLD, WITH.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: JUMPING BACK JUST A COUPLE OF THESE OTHER SMALLER ITEMS EQUIPMENT PURCHASES OR DOWN BY BY $140,000 DIRECTLY RELATED TO PURCHASES OF BODY CAMS AND.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WHO SAID ABOUT $120,000 AND THEN WE HAD ANOTHER SAVINGS ABOUT 30,000 AS A CITY MIGRATED TOWARDS VIRTUAL SERVERS AND OFF SITE VAULTING SERVICES IN 2021 SO THERE WAS THAT EXPENDITURE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES INCREASED BY ABOUT $56,000, WHICH IS ABOUT 6.2% THERE'S SO MANY FLUCTUATIONS BACK AND FORTH, IF YOU GUYS NEED ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THESE PLUGINS AND GET THEM FOR YOU, BUT I'VE KIND OF HIGHLIGHTED A FEW OF THE MAIN ONES THAT WENT UP AND WENT DOWN.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THE MAJOR INCREASES WERE PUBLIC SAFETY SUPPLIES AND ABOUT $49,000.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: BUILDING REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE OF $47,000 A LOT OF THE BUILDING REPAIR MAINTENANCE WE'VE KIND OF PUT OUT THERE FOR REIMBURSEMENT FOR FEMA BECAUSE SOME OF THESE EXPENDITURES HAPPENED IN 22, EVEN THOUGH THE YOU KNOW THE STORM WAS IN 21 WORK, SOME OF THE WORK DIDN'T GET DONE UNTIL 22.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND GUNS AND AMMUNITION ARE ABOUT $30,000 BY ELECTRICITY COSTS ABOUT 24,000 AND WE HAD AN OFFSET THESE INCREASES BY DECREASE IN TAX OR PAYMENTS OF $82,000 IS THERE A LARGER SETTLEMENTS LAST YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: MOVING ON TO CONTRACTUAL COSTS CONTRACTUAL COSTS INCLUDE OUR INNER FUND SERVICE CHARGES BUILDING VEHICLE FUND OPERATING EXPENDITURES LIABILITY INSURANCE AND.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: DEBT SERVICE EXPENDITURES AS WELL, IT ALSO INCLUDES FUNDING TO THE RIDE FREE READING ROOM LEGAL COSTS CONSULTANTS AND MISCELLANEOUS SERVICE CONTRACTS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO OVERALL COST IS UP ABOUT 150 $9,000 3.9% LARGEST NUMBERS HERE ARE 104,000.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WHICH IS AN INCREASE IN OUR MISCELLANEOUS SERVICE CONTRACTS WHERE THE POLICE CAD SYSTEM THAT WAS PURCHASED LAST YEAR SOME OF THIS IS RELATED TO THE ANNUAL EXPENSE SOME OF THIS IS THE TIMING OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SYSTEM.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: LEGAL FEES ARE UP ABOUT $40,000 AND THE CONSULTANT EXPENSES ARE FOR ABOUT 35,000.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO AGAIN, OVERALL, YOU KNOW EVERYTHING SEEMS WITHIN BUDGET NOTHING TO WORRY IN TERMS OF REVENUES COMING IN UNDER.

[00:25:05]

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: JOE THANK YOU.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: VERY MUCH.

SURE.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT ON A PURE NET I MEAN I GUESS YOU CAN'T DO IT THIS WAY, BUT LIKE A PURE NET INCOME BASIS IF YOU DO REVENUES OVER EXPENSES.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAH GREG AND I TALKED ABOUT THAT YESTERDAY WE WERE KIND OF WE HAD THAT NUMBER IN THERE THAT'S SOMETHING WE COULD SHOW YOU, BUT AGAIN.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: LIKE IF YOU LOOK AT THE PROPERTY TAX LINE OF WE COLLECT THE 27 MILLION IN PROPERTY TAXES IN FEBRUARY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO OUR NET INCOME IS OBVIOUSLY IT'S YOU KNOW IT'S CLOSE TO YOU KNOW 15,000 $15 MILLION RIGHT NOW BUT IT'S BECAUSE WE HAVE ALL OF OUR MONEY, LIKE WE HAVEN'T HAD OUR RETIREMENT EXPENSES, WE PAY OUR HEALTH INSURANCE AS WE GO.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: A LOT OF THE BIG NUMBERS, TOWARDS THE END OF THE YEAR KIND OF HAPPENS SO IN TERMS OF A NET INCOME NUMBER, WE REALLY DON'T USE THAT AS A GOOD FORECAST BECAUSE, AGAIN, YOU KNOW.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: 70 TO 80% OF OUR REVENUE IS COLLECTED WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MONTHS OF THE YEAR, BUT IF YOU WANTED THAT INFORMATION I CAN CERTAINLY ADD IT TO THE PRESENTATION, THIS IS A YOU KNOW WORKING DOCUMENT WE ALWAYS HAVE YOU KNOW ROOM FOR COMMENTS AND IMPROVEMENTS SO WELL.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I GUESS THE BIGGER QUESTION IS, AND I THINK YOU ALREADY MENTIONED, IT IS, ARE YOU TRACKING TO WHAT YOUR BUDGET WAS AND DO YOU THINK THAT.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW OUR TOTAL REVENUES AND TOTAL EXPENSES WILL BE YOU KNOW KIND OF ROUGHLY AT THE SAME PERCENTAGES, AS THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE PAST, SO THAT IF SOMEBODY SEES THIS AND THEY'RE LIKE OH MY GOSH YOU KNOW SALARIES ARE UP 6%.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW I GUESS THE POINT IS YOU'RE STILL CRACKING TO WHAT THE BUDGET WAS, AND YOU KNOW WE'RE NOT SEEING FLUCTUATIONS IN YOU WERE.

[6. Consideration of a resolution to modify various City permit fees and charges.]

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THE GOOD THING ABOUT HAVING BUDGET CERTAINTY IS IN TERMS OF THE SALARIES AND WAGES IS BASICALLY EVERY WEEK, WE HAVE EVERY POSITION ACCOUNTED FOR, WE GOT OUT THERE'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW UNFILLED POSITION SO THERE'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE SAVINGS THERE WE ALWAYS BUDGET A LITTLE EXTRA IN TERMS OF HEALTH INSURANCE, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE WITH NICE SHIP, BECAUSE YOU MIGHT HAVE A BAD YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: BUT WE ALWAYS KIND OF ERR ON THE SIDE OF CAUTION AND WE ARE CONSERVATIVE IN OUR ESTIMATES, ESPECIALLY WITH THE HEALTH INSURANCE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW, WE DID BUMP UP OUR REVENUES THIS YEAR TO BE MORE IN LINE WITH ACTUAL AND WE DID WE DID GO BACK SEVERAL YEARS TO LOOK AT THOSE NUMBERS UP.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW, AGAIN, I NEVER GOT A BUDGET MORE THAN WE GET OR CLOSE TO IT THERE'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE SOME BUFFER IN THERE, ESPECIALLY ON THE REVENUE SIDE.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SO YEAH SALARIES AND WAGES, OBVIOUSLY, WHEN WE KNOW WHAT THE CONTRACTS ARE CALLING FOR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WE'RE BUDGETING TO THAT SO YOU KNOW, EVEN INCLUDING SOME PROMOTIONS, WE ALSO BUDGETED SOME EXTRA MONEY IN THERE FOR THAT SO.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WE'RE TRACKING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION THERE'S BEEN YOU KNOW, IN TERMS OF OVERTIME, I THINK WE FINALLY GOT THAT DOWN FREE CORRECTLY IN TERMS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND POLICE DEPARTMENT AND BUDGETED AND THOSE ARE TRACKING.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND THEY WERE ABOUT 50% WHEN I LOOKED AT THOSE NUMBERS IN TERMS OF VERSUS BUDGET FOR THE SOUL, YOU KNOW, SIX MONTHS 50% OF WHERE WE ARE AT SO AGAIN, YOU KNOW NOTHING THAT JUMPS OFF THE PAGE AND SAYS, YOU KNOW WHERE WE MIGHT BE OVER IN THIS LINE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WOULD IT BE HELPFUL TO HAVE LIKE A COLUMN HERE, WHICH SHOWS LIKE PERCENT OF BUDGET BECAUSE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: OBVIOUSLY WE'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM A BUT REALLY IT NEEDS, WE WANT TO BE TRACKING AGAINST OUR BUDGET SO.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: RIGHT WITH.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: IT WE ALWAYS GO BACK ON THAT.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WE ALWAYS GO BACK AND FORTH BECAUSE THERE'S YEARS COUNCILMAN ASKED FOR THAT AND THERE'S LIKE I JUST CONFUSING TO THE PUBLIC, SO IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE READY TO GO, WE WANTED TO UPDATE THIS FOR THE PUBLIC IT'S EASY ENOUGH TO DROP THAT LINE AND.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IT'D BE GOOD TO HAVE LIKE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW 2022 YOU KNOW CURRENT VERSUS OR YEAR TO DATE VERSUS BUDGETED OR SOME.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW BUDGETS THAT YOU COULD SEE THE VARIANTS YOU COULD SAY YEAH WE'RE TRACK BECAUSE RIGHT NOW IT'S, TO THE POINT THAT THEN RAISE IT COULD BE ALARMING THAT WERE YOU KNOW THAT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: EXPENSES FOR SALARIES ARE SET UP 6%, BUT IT COULD BE WELL WE ACTUALLY BUDGETED FOR THAT AND WE'RE ACTUALLY UNDER WHAT WE BUDGETED OR WHATEVER JUST I I FEEL LIKE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: US TO JULIE THAT SUMMIT FOR SOME OF THE LINES IT'LL BE VERY EFFECTIVE FOR.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SOME.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BE MISLEADING BECAUSE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BECAUSE THERE I'LL TAKE A DIRECT LINE WE'RE GOING TO RECEIVE A SIGNIFICANT OVER AMOUNT OF OF REVENUES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUMMER AND WE'RE GOING TO OCCUR INCUR SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER EXPENSES IN THE LATTER PART OF THE YEAR, AS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ALL RIGHT, SAME THING WITH MORTGAGE TAX, THE TIMING OF THAT AND SALES TAX, SO WE CAN WILL CONTINUE TO DO THIS, BUT MY POINT IS THIS SOME OF THIS IS CYCLICAL AND SOME OF ITS STRAIGHT LINE.

[00:30:02]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: REFLECT IN HERE IS BECAUSE SOME OF IT, YOU KNOW, THE MOST IMPORTANT TWO LINES ON HERE FROM A BUDGET STANDPOINT OUR SALARIES AND WAGES AND BENEFITS, BECAUSE THAT'S GOING TO BE IN ANY GIVEN YEAR, THE MOST SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OF THE BUDGET THAT WE USE AND WHY YOU'RE SEEING THE GROWTH YEAR OVER YEAR IS, IF YOU RECALL, IN.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND, SPECIFICALLY, AND TO A LESSER EXTENT, BUT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SAME IN 2021 WE FROZE HIRING IN THE MIDDLE OF COVEN BECAUSE OF OUR CONCERN YOUR CONCERN OUR COLLECTIVE CONCERN ABOUT EXPENSES, SO WE ARE WHERE WE ARE STILL SLIGHTLY UNDER BUDGET.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND THOSE TWO LINE ITEMS FOR THIS YEAR, EVEN THOUGH THERE'S GROWTH VERSUS LAST YEAR AND THE YEAR BEFORE, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T FILL POSITIONS, THE LAST FEW YEARS THAT JUST BE IN AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION YEAH.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I GUESS I JUST DIDN'T KNOW IF, LIKE ONE OTHER SLIDE THAT SHOWS WHERE WE ARE TODAY, AND THEN YOU CAN EVEN JUST.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: HAVE A STRICT YOU KNOW, OR YOU KNOW IT COULD BE OVER, YOU KNOW OVER THE REVENUE IS FRONT LOADED AND EXPENSES OR BACKLOADED OR SOMETHING I JUST I DIDN'T.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I GET IT, I GET IT IT'S DIFFICULT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: GOOD COMMENTARY, WILL WE WERE TRYING TO PROVIDE MORE AND MORE TRANSPARENCY AND GREATER INFORMATION AND WE'LL KEEP WE'LL KEEP WORKING ON THAT, BUT THE GOOD COMMENTS.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW, IT IS IN THE NARRATIVE TO THE ONES THAT WE FEEL ARE IMPORTANT TO KNOW IN TERMS OF.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW, LIKE YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE AND YOUR SALARIES AND CERTAIN REVENUE LINE, ESPECIALLY SALES TAX, I MEAN YOU'RE LOOKING RIGHT NOW AT.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: ONE QUARTER AND IT'S LIKE THE YOU KNOW WE HAVE THREE QUARTERS TO COME FOR THE YEAR SO THAT SALES TAG NUMBER MIGHT SHOW YOU KNOW.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY 25% OF WHAT WE BUDGETED FOR, AND THAT IS ALARMING IF YOU CAN THINK OF IT THAT WAY, BUT THERE ARE THREE QUARTERS YET TO COME AND WE HAVEN'T RECEIVED YET SO.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YA KNOW, AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT IS, IS THAT I'VE GOT THE THE DOCUMENT NEXT MAJOR YOU'RE READING IT, IT MAKES MORE SENSE IF SOMEBODY JUST LOOKING AT THE SNAPSHOT DOES IT TELL THEM EVERYTHING WE NEED TO KNOW BUT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I GET IT IT'S HARD, AND YOU KNOW YOU DAMNED IF YOU DO DAMNED IF YOU DON'T WRITE, SO THANK YOU FOR THAT IT'S ALWAYS ALWAYS INFORMATIONAL BEEN HELPFUL THANKS JOE.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: JOE JOE BOTTOM LINE WE'RE ON PLAN TO MAKE OUR BUDGET SO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU SO WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ALONG TO CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION TO MODIFY.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CERTAIN CITY PERMIT FEES AND CHARGES AND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: JOE IS THIS YOURS AGAIN OR GREG ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE US THROUGH.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I'LL I'LL KICK IT OFF IT'LL BE ACTUALLY SOME OF CAROLYN PROBABLY JOE AND ANYBODY ELSE THAT'S GOING TO WEIGH IN BUT JUST TO GIVE SOME SOME HISTORY HERE, GOING BACK TO.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE COUNCIL AND STAFF RE EXAMINE ALL FEES AND PERMANENT EXPENSES THAT CITY HAD, AND IN SOME CASES THOSE THOSE FEES AND PERMITS NO LONGER REFLECTED THE COST OF SERVICE, AND IN SOME CASES THEY WENT BACK AS MANY AS 10 YEARS SINCE THEY HAD BEEN REVISED THE THE DESIRE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND WHAT WE'RE CARRYING FORWARD NOW IS TO HAVE A MORE REGULAR REVIEW OF ALL OF OUR FEES OF PERMITS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TO BE REFLECTIVE OF COST OF SERVICE, AND ALSO TO MAKE SURE THAT THE THINGS THAT WE YOU KNOW WE ARE CHARGING FOR SO APPLICABLE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ON ANY OF THEM NEED TO BE DROPPED OR ENHANCED OR MODIFIED AND CHANGE, SO WHAT WE WHAT CITY STAFF DID THIS YEAR.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WAS TO ASK ALL THE DEPARTMENT HEADS TO AGAIN REVIEW THE FEES, THE IDEA, SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE YOU KNOW SIGNIFICANT INCREASES ANYONE YEAR, BUT RATHER THAT WE ARE MORE IN LOCKSTEP WITH COST OF SERVICE, SO WHAT YOU SEE AND IT'S REFLECTED.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IN THE MEMO THAT THAT JOE AND CAROLYN PUT TOGETHER, BUT, MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE SECOND PAGE OF THAT AS A DETAILED LISTING OF ALL OF THE FEES REVIEWED BY THE VARIOUS DEPARTMENT HEADS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING TO BE TO BE INCREASED, SOME OF THOSE YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A RELATIVELY SMALL INCREASES A FEW OF THOSE ARE MORE SIZABLE INCREASES THAT REFLECT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW THE DIFFICULTY OF DELIVERING YOU KNOW SOME OF THESE YOU KNOW SOME OF THESE MATTERS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND I'M HAPPY TO YOU KNOW WE CAN CERTAINLY GO THROUGH THESE IN LINE BY LINE OR SPECIFIC ONES, THE ONE THING I WANT TO RAISE BEFORE WE GET INTO THE DETAIL IS YOU'LL SEE THAT, UNDER THE PARKING FEES, THE COMMUTER.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: MTA PARKING LOT FEES HAVE BEEN PROPOSED TO BE INCREASED, THAT IS GOING TO BE SUBJECT TO MTA ACTION IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE COUNCIL WANTS TO ADVANCE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE MTA ACTUALLY HAS TO BUY BOARD ACTION ADOPT ANY FEE INCREASES IN COMMUTER PARKING SO WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR.

[00:35:08]

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: GREG SAYS, I UNDERSTOOD THE MATERIALS.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: YOU'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR COUNCIL BACKING FOR A SERIES OF INCREASES IN IN THE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: COMMUTER PERMIT FEE THAT IS 3% TO START, AND THEN I THINK HE HAD 2% AND I GUESS MY QUESTION WOULD BE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: FOR HOW MANY YEARS ARE YOU ASKING THE COUNCIL TO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ACT AND WHAT SORT OF INCREASES SHOULD WE EXPECT DURING THE PERIOD OF TIME FOR WHICH YOU WOULD LIKE A STACK.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION MAYOR WHAT WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO DO IN THIS IS, I REALIZED, IT GIVES US A LITTLE BIT OF FLEXIBILITY HERE IS, THIS IS A, THIS IS AN APPROACH THAT WE HAVE NOT TAKEN WITH THE MTA IN THE PAST, IF YOU RECALL, GOING BACK TO.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AFTER IT HAD BEEN MANY YEARS SINCE INCREASES, WE WERE LOOKING FOR VERY SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE MTA CAME BACK AND SAID WE'RE NOT COMFORTABLE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WITH IT ALL HAPPENING AT ONCE, WE WOULD BE SUPPORTIVE OF TWO RELATIVELY SIZABLE INCREASES, BUT NOT CONTINUED.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SO REALLY WHAT I WILL WE'RE LOOKING FOR WOULD BE TO ALLOW US TO GO TO EMPTY TO THE MTA HAVE A CONVERSATION.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ON LOOK TO THEM FOR SAY THREE TO FIVE YEAR PROGRAM A PERIODIC INCREASES, BUT THAT STILL IS GOING TO BE SUBJECT TO COUNCIL ACTION, SO WHAT I WOULD ANTICIPATE WOULDN'T BE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THIS INITIAL 3% ASKED, AND THEN A SERIES OF TWO OR 3% INCREASES OVER A PERIOD OF THREE OR FOUR OR FIVE YEARS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE MTA WOULD ALLOW US TO DO WE'RE REALLY LOOKING FOR THIS FIRST INCREASE, I WILL BE ASKING THE MTA FOR COST OF LIVING INCREASES AFTER THAT TWO OR 3%.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND THEN SEE WHERE THEY COME BACK, BUT BEFORE THAT COULD ACTUALLY BE PUT INTO PLACE ON A FUTURE DATE, YOU WOULD HAVE TO YOU KNOW, GIVE US FURTHER AUTHORIZATION.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SOUNDS GOOD, THANK YOU.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SO, HOW WOULD YOU.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: HAVE WE LOST THEM HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE CANCELED THEIR COMPUTER PARKING PERMITS THAT WE LOST REVENUE THEY'RE GIVEN THE PANDEMIC AND ALL THAT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: NOW.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: WE HAVE NOT WE ACTUALLY COUNCILMAN ANDERSON WE STILL MAINTAIN A STEADY WAITLIST OF ABOUT 500 PEOPLE THAT NUMBER HAS NOT DROPPED AT ALL.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I THOUGHT WE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I THOUGHT WE CLEARED THE WHOLE THING AT ONE POINT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND MONEY.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: YEAH 2016 I THINK WE DID, BUT NO WE'RE STILL WHERE ITS PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR THE MTA LOT, WHICH SHOWS US, YOU KNOW THAT THERE IS DEMAND, THERE ARE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THERE, AND I THINK THAT SHE'S THINKING ABOUT THE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: HIGHLAND LOT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WILL WE HAD AVAILABILITY LAST YEAR.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: OH YES, YEAH WE DO HAVE SOME SOME RESIDENT ONLY PARKING AVAILABLE, WE HAVE A COUPLE OF PERMITS THAT'S LEFT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT IT'S PEOPLE WHO WANT TO GET INTO THE MTA LOT BUT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: PEOPLE CAN STILL GET PARKING NEAR THE TRAIN IT'S JUST NOT THAT LOT YEAH OKAY, THANK YOU.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: I'M JUST PROCEDURALLY GREG I'M I FEEL LIKE IN THE PAST, I REMEMBER GOING THROUGH.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: FEES IN THE BUDGET PROCESS, AND SO IS THIS I'M GLAD THAT WE'RE SEEING IT, YOU KNOW OUTSIDE OF THAT CONTEXT BECAUSE IT'S ALWAYS SO CRAZY BUT I'M JUST WONDERING UM WILL WE SEE ADDITIONAL PERMIT FEE INCREASES IN THAT PROCESS, OR WHAT SORT OF.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ANYWAY, YOUR YOUR YOUR MEMORIES EXACTLY RIGHT WE'RE WE'RE ACCELERATING THIS A LITTLE BIT THIS YEAR BECAUSE IT HELPS US WITH THE BUDGET PROCESS.

[7. CapEx Update]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OR WE GET TO BUDGET AND THAT WAY, WE COME TO YOU WITH SOMETHING THAT LOOKS A LITTLE BIT MORE FINAL BECAUSE IF YOU.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IF YOU EITHER ACCEPTED REJECTED OR MODIFIED HAVE A PERMIT REQUEST DURING THE BUDGET PROCESS, IT MAY HAVE GREATER IMPLICATIONS ON THE BUDGET SO REALLY WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS BE ABLE TO BAKE INTO THE BUDGET PERMITS THAT YOU'VE ACCEPTED HERE.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: THE I MEAN.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE ONLY THE ONLY AREA THAT WILL LIKELY COME BACK TO YOU AT A LATER DATE WILL BE FOR WRECK AND THAT WILL BE SOMETHING THAT I WOULD EXPECT IN SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER THAT THAT THE REC COMMISSION AND SALLY WILL HAVE FINALIZED, BUT OTHER THAN THAT THIS, THIS WOULD BE IT FOR THE YEAR.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: AND WE DID THIS BACK IN 20 I THINK 2018 FOR THE 19 BUT THERE WAS A LOT OF YOU KNOW, BIG TICKET ITEMS THAT WE HAD AN INCREASE IN 20 YEARS IN.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: SOME CASES, SO YOU SAW A HUGE SPIKES IN REVENUE BECAUSE OF THAT PARKING FINES STREET OPENING PERMITS.

[00:40:05]

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE SO TERMS OF THINKING ABOUT BIG NUMBERS WE'RE NOT SEEING THAT THIS YEAR WITH ANY OF THESE INCREASES.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: YEAH NO THAT'S GREAT, AND I DO REMEMBER THAT INCREASE JOE AND WE SORT OF ACROSS THE BOARD REALIZED THAT WE HAD INCREASED YOU KNOW.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: SO WITH.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: I DO REMEMBER THAT WE FELT LIKE YOU KNOW IT HAD BEEN 20 YEARS AND SOME OF THEM HADN'T GONE UP AT ALL, AND SO WE KIND OF MADE A BROAD INCREASE, WHAT ARE WE DOING.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT LIKE CONSTABLE THE COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENTS WILL WE BE ARE WE INCREASING ON IT REGULAR BASIS, A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OR NO.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WELL, I GUESS IT CERTAINLY IS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO THE PARKING.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: RIGHT.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU KNOW SOME OF THE OTHER FEES WHEN WE LOOKED AT THEM, WE WERE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF PACK SOMETIMES MAYBE ON THE HIGHER SIDE AND SOME OF THESE WE DID DO KIND OF A ANALYSIS OF OTHER MUNICIPALITIES, AND SO THERE IS SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR THAT AS WELL.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: UM.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WE DON'T WANT TO BE ABOVE THE REST OF OUR NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES, EITHER, BUT WITH THESE INCREASES AND.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE'RE GOING TO BE WHAT YOU SEE AND WE'RE NOT THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE THERE'S PHRASES THERE'S NOT A SYSTEMATIC PROCESS THAT'S GOING TO BE AWAY FROM THE COUNCIL, WE WILL COME BACK TO YOU.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: EVERY YEAR, WITH A HOPEFULLY A RELATIVELY SHORT LIST AFTER WE'VE THOUGHTFULLY REVIEWED, YOU KNOW WHAT'S HERE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND WE ARE REFLECTING SOME COST OF LIVING INCREASE OR COST OF SERVICE INCREASES HERE WE'RE ALSO REFLECTING A FEW CHANGES HERE THAT ARE MORE SIGNIFICANT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT AFTER REVIEWING THE STAFF TIME FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF PERMITS IS MORE REFLECTIVE OF THE TIME AND ENERGY THAT GOES INTO SOME OF THESE.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: YEAH I NOTICED THE UM THE ZONING ONE WITH SIGNIFICANT INCREASE WHICH IS GREAT IF IT'S YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO ACCURATELY REFLECT WHAT KIND OF STAFF TIME THESE THINGS ARE TAKING SO.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WELL I'M ALSO GLAD TO SEE THAT SOME OF THE MORE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ADMINISTRATIVE FEES LIKE YOU KNOW PHOTOCOPIES AND STUFF WERE REMOVED BECAUSE THAT JUST DOES SEEM VERY.

1989.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: UM IT'S GOOD THAT WE GOT RID OF SUPERFLUOUS SORT OF INCONSEQUENTIAL THINGS AND REALLY FOCUSED ON WHAT IS THE WORK, EFFORT INVOLVED HERE AND AND TRIED TO CAPTURE IT, SO I LOVE THAT THIS EFFORT WAS UNDERTAKEN.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WITH RESPECT TO THE TOPIC THAT EMILY RAISED REZONING APPLICATIONS.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ARE THOSE APPLICATIONS FOR VARIANCES OR ACTUALLY FOR REZONE SAY.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: FORCE FOR SOMETHING THAT'S CHARACTERIZED AS AS A ZONING AMENDMENT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THOSE ARE FOR SONY TEXT AMENDMENTS THAT'S THAT'S, THESE ARE THE MORE SIGNIFICANT REQUESTS.

OKAY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: ACCORDING TO CHRISTIAN THERE'S NOT MANY OF THESE IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, SO AGAIN, THIS IS NOT LIKE A HUGE NEEDLE MOVER RIGHT CHRISTIAN AND BELIEVE.

KRISTEN WILSON: ME, ALTHOUGH THIS COUNCIL HAS SEEN A COUPLE.

KRISTEN WILSON: THEY WERE QUITE TIME CONSUMING.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WE'VE SEEN THREE WELL WHEN YOU SAY THIS COUNCIL WITH WITH SOME OVERLAP YEAH.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ONE QUESTION THAT I SEE THE NON RESIDENT COMMUTER FEES ARE THE SAME AS A RESIDENT I ASSUME THE MTA DOESN'T, LET US CHARGE MORE MONEY TO NON RESIDENTS, IS THAT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TRIED, WE TRIED VERY HARD FOR YEARS AGO AND WE'RE NOT WE'RE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN THAT REGARD.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: FROWNED UPON.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO IF THERE ARE NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, MAY I HAVE A MOTION TO ACCEPT THESE RECOMMENDATIONS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I'LL MAKE THE MOTION.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: A SECOND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I THINK WE NEED A ROLL CALL.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: HAPPILY.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: COUNCILMAN HENDERSON.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THANKS TO CAROLYN AND JOE YEOMAN'S WORK ON CORRALLING ALL THIS.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: GREAT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THANK YOU AWESOME.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: IN MIND, WE WILL HAVE RECREATION BOAT AND GOLF FEE SCHEDULES TO COME, SO WE WILL KEEP YOU POSTED ON THAT OKAY.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY NOW CAN FIX UPDATE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THIS IS GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN JUST AN UPDATE AND I THINK RYAN SHOULD BE WITH US SOMEWHERE IN THE IN THE ETHER.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SO WHILE WE'RE LOOKING FOR HIM THE IT'S A PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL AGENDA PACKAGE BACKUP FOR THIS, WE ALSO ARE GOING TO BE DOING A POWERPOINT.

[00:45:04]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IT'S IMPORTANT TO REVIEW, WHERE WE ARE, FROM A COST STANDPOINT RELATIVE TO OUR FINANCIAL RESOURCES.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: GIVEN HOW IMPORTANT THIS HAS BEEN AS A PRIORITY FOR THE COUNTS FOR THIS AND THE PRIOR COUNCIL.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE ARE STARTING TO PROVIDE EVEN MORE INFORMATION ON THE WEBSITE THERE'S NOW A SPECIFIC LINK THAT PROVIDES ALL PROJECTS AND THEN FURTHER CATEGORIZES UNRACED PROJECTS, ALL THE INFORMATION THAT'S AVAILABLE SITE PLANS DRAWINGS ANYTHING THAT HAS BEEN DONE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IS YOU'LL ALSO SEE IN THE ATTACHED AGENDA ITEM, THIS IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE CHARTER REQUIREMENT FOR US TO PRESENT TO THE COUNCIL 90 DAYS BEFORE THE BUDGET.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: A ANNUAL CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN THAT ENUMERATE NOT JUST THE PROJECTS, BUT ALSO THE FUNDING SOURCES IN RELATED COSTS AND SO THAT'S THAT'S ALL INCLUDED HERE AS WELL.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ONE LAST NOTE, I WANT TO MAKE IS THAT THIS DISCUSSION TONIGHT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE BOAT BASIN, NOR DOES IT INCLUDE THE GOLF CLUB, THIS IS ALL RELATED SPECIFICALLY TO THE GENERAL FUND.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE ARE CONTINUING TO WORK, OBVIOUSLY WITH THE BOAT BASIN, AND I KNOW THAT THE GOLF CLUB COMMISSION IS WORKING WITH THEIR FINANCE FINANCE COMMITTEE AND WITH CHRIS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ON FINALIZING THEIR PRIORITIES AND THOSE WILL BE THINGS THAT WILL BE DISCUSSED AT A LATER DATE, BUT TONIGHT REALLY IS JUST GOING TO BE ABOUT THE GENERAL FUND CAPITAL APPROVAL PROGRAM.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: BEFORE WE GET GOING IN IN YEARS PAST WE WERE PRESENTED AS PART OF THIS OVERALL PRESENTATION, WITH A.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: VERY, VERY THICK BOOK OF.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CAPITAL PROJECTS THAT THE CITY HAD ACCUMULATED OVER THE YEARS, WITH THEIR PRIOR PRIORITIZATION AND WHATEVER SORT OF ROUGH ESTIMATES OF THEIR COST HAD BEEN DONE, AND THAT WAS DONE ANNUALLY AND I'M WONDERING IF WE ARE STILL KEEPING UP WITH THAT PROCESS, WHETHER OR NOT IT'S PRESENTED HERE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE ARE GOING TO UPDATE THAT FURTHER MAYOR YOU'RE RIGHT IN YEARS PAST.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT DOCUMENT FOR LACK OF BETTER TERM SERVED AS THE CHARTER REQUIREMENT FOR THE CI P.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE ARE CONTINUING TO MODIFY THAT APPROACH, BECAUSE FRANKLY WE DIDN'T FIND THAT IT WAS TERRIBLY INFORMATIVE TO THE COUNCIL TO GIVE YOU A KITCHEN SINK OF EVERYTHING, BUT RATHER.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TO FOCUS ON ON THESE PARTY PROJECTS, BUT WE WILL WE WILL CONTINUE AND ARE GOING TO BE UPDATING THAT KIND OF MASTER LIST AND AND THAT WILL BE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AVAILABLE ON THE WEBSITE WILL CERTAINLY BE PROVIDED TO TO THE COUNCIL IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD LIKE, FOR US TO COME BACK AND DO YOU KNOW, A YOU KNOW, THE MORE FULL SOME FIVE YEAR TYPES TIP DISCUSSION, WE CAN CERTAINLY DO THAT AS WELL.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I MEAN, I THINK I'M NOT SEEKING TO ENCOURAGE THAT I ACTUALLY PREFER TO HAVE US FOCUS ON THE PRIORITY PROJECTS THAT WE'VE PICKED AND THAT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ARE REALLY GOING TO BE A VIRGIN CONCERN TO US FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT FEW YEARS, BUT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE ARE STILL UPDATING OUR INFORMATION AND HAVE THAT AVAILABLE TO US AS A RESOURCE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WILL BE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ALRIGHT, WITH THAT GUESS RYAN.

BRIAN SHEA: NEVER WOULDN'T SEE THIS JUST BEFORE I.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: HAD IT'S NOT IN SLIDESHOW, THOUGH, FOR SOME REASON IT'S.

ONCE.

BRIAN SHEA: THANK YOU.

RYAN COYNE: ALL RIGHT, GOOD, GOOD EVENING SO WE'RE HERE WITH AN UPDATE ON OUR.

RYAN COYNE: CAPITAL PRIORITY PROJECTS.

RYAN COYNE: SO, AS YOU GUYS KNOW WE, THE COUNCIL PRIORITIZE CERTAIN PROJECTS, A FEW YEARS AGO WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON IMPLEMENTING THOSE LARGE IN DESIGN PROCESS UNTIL NOW AND WE'RE RECRUITING TOWARD.

RYAN COYNE: SUBSTANTIAL.

RYAN COYNE: CONSTRUCTION TIMES BIDDING TIMES THIS FALL AND INTO NEXT YEAR, SO WE'LL GIVE YOU AN UPDATE.

[00:50:05]

RYAN COYNE: THESE ARE THE PROJECTS WERE IN A RANGE OF STATUS BETWEEN DESIGN BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION AND I'LL GO THROUGH THOSE IN THE NEXT FEW SLIDES.

RYAN COYNE: SO DP W BUILDING FIVE, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS BUILDING TO IF YOU LOOK AT THE SIGN OF THE BUILDING.

RYAN COYNE: WE'RE PRETTY FAR INTO DESIGN WE'RE PROBABLY YOU KNOW 60% IS THE DESIGN NUMBER APP BUT EVEN FAST FURTHER THAN THAT.

RYAN COYNE: THE PROJECT HAS BEEN REFERRED TO THE VAR WERE ON AN UPCOMING AGENDA WE'VE MET WITH THE ADJOINING NEIGHBORS.

RYAN COYNE: AND LISTEN TO SOME OF THEIR CONCERNS AND LOOKED INTO ADDRESS A COUPLE MINOR MINOR THINGS IN THE BUILDING FACADE THAT THAT FACES TO THE SOUTH.

RYAN COYNE: SO WE'LL BE IN THE CAR, HOPEFULLY IN SEPTEMBER AND THEN BACK TO YOU GUYS FOR SEEKER LW RP AND.

RYAN COYNE: AND AND BIT AWARD THIS FALL WITH US STARTED CONSTRUCTION IN THE SPRING, AND THIS IS A BIGGER CONSTRUCTION PERIOD WE'RE PROBABLY LOOKING AT 18 MONTHS TWO YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION OF THIS BUILDING, BUT THAT'S OUR TIME FRAME HERE.

RYAN COYNE: DW BUILDING SEVEN IS THE OLD SALT SHED IT'S A RECONSTRUCTION OF THAT THE LEFT TURN LEFT PORTION OF THE BUILDING YOU SEEN THAT PICTURE DESIGN IS COMPLETE.

RYAN COYNE: WE HAVE A CONTRACTOR A CONTRACT AWARDED MATERIALS HAVE BEEN ORDERED SOME LEAD TIME ISSUES WITH SOME OF THE TRUSSES.

RYAN COYNE: FOR THE ROOF STRUCTURE, BUT THAT IS NEARING COMPLETION, AND THAT SHOULD BE A FULL BUILD TO THAT WILL GET UNDERWAY RELATIVELY SHORTLY.

RYAN COYNE: THE SALT SHED.

RYAN COYNE: WAS TO THE COUNCIL EARLY THIS YEAR REFER TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION WE DID.

RYAN COYNE: GO TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION LAST MONTH DID HEAR SOME COMMENTS FROM THE COMMISSION AND THE CCA SEE SOME GOOD COMMENTS THAT WERE LOOKING TO ADDRESS.

RYAN COYNE: NOW, AND SOME DESIGN MODIFICATIONS AND GET BACK TO THEM IN SEPTEMBER.

RYAN COYNE: FROM THERE WE'LL GO TO BE IR AND THEN WE WILL BID THE BACK TO YOU FOR FOR SECRET LW RP AND BIT AWARD THIS FALL WINTER, WITH A CONSTRUCTION NEXT SPRING.

RYAN COYNE: FUEL TANKS WERE.

RYAN COYNE: DESIGN IS IN PROGRESS IT'S FUNDED BY THE COUNCIL, WE ARE IT'S ON CONTRACTS SO IT'S NOT NECESSARILY A A PUBLIC BID REQUIREMENT BUT WE'RE JUST MAKING SURE ALL THE PUZZLE PIECES OF THE PARK FIT TOGETHER, AND THEN WE WILL GET THOSE FUEL TANKS INSTALLED.

RYAN COYNE: FIRST, HAVE ANY SIDEWALKS WE DO HAVE THIS IS THE DEITY.

RYAN COYNE: GRANT FUNDED LARGELY GRANT FUNDED PROJECT WE HAVE.

RYAN COYNE: SELECTED A CONSULTANT, THE CONSULTANT DESIGN IS UNDER WAY WE'VE HAD TO PROGRESS MEETINGS WITH THEM EVERY OTHER WEEK.

RYAN COYNE: WE'LL BE BACK TO THE CITY COUNCIL ON THIS RELATIVELY SHORTLY FOR SEEKER AND REVIEW OF THEIR PRELIMINARY DESIGN FROM THERE, WE GO TO THE DO T IT'S A RIGOROUS FEALTY DESIGN REVIEW PROCESS.

RYAN COYNE: BUT WE WILL BE TO YOU RELATIVELY SHORTLY MEANING SEPTEMBER MEETING TIMEFRAME, MAYBE OCTOBER.

RYAN COYNE: WITH OUR CONSULTANTS SPLINTER DESIGN FOR THIS, IF ALL GOES AS PLANNED, IT WILL BE REVIEWED BY THE PUBLIC, AND YOU THIS FALL DO IT THROUGH THE WINTER, WITH A 2023 BID AND BUILD TIME.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THAT'D BE AMAZING ASK A QUICK QUESTION ABOUT THAT, THOUGH RYAN.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I MEAN THIS IS LITERALLY, LIKE SO MANY YEARS IN THE WORKS I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE IT PROGRESSING IN THE DESIGN IS THIS I CAN'T REMEMBER BECAUSE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEARS AGO, WE WERE LOOKING AT YOU KNOW PLACE WHERE IT WENT UP ONE SIDE IT CROSSED OVER AT DIFFERENT PLACES, HAS IS THAT WHAT IS BEING UNDERTAKEN IN THE DESIGN, OR IS IT JUST THE ACTUAL DESIGN AROUND A DECISION THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN MADE.

RYAN COYNE: IT'S THE, THE COUNCIL DID MAKE A DECISION IN THE GRANT APPLICATION PROCESS.

RYAN COYNE: RIGHT, BUT THAT IS STILL THAT IS NOT SET IN STONE.

[00:55:01]

RYAN COYNE: YEAH, SO THERE IS FLEXIBILITY THERE, THERE IS ROOM FOR MODIFICATION TO DESIGN CURRENTLY WHAT IT WAS AND WHAT IT IS.

RYAN COYNE: ALTHOUGH THE SPECIFICS OF WHERE THE CROSSING IS STILL IN DESIGN, BUT THE CONCEPT IS A SIDEWALK RAP ALUMNUS OF THE WEST SIDE OF FOREST CROSSING OVER TO THE EAST SIDE SORT OF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BLOCKS SOMEWHERE AROUND.

RYAN COYNE: YOU KNOW POPE ROAD MAYBE FIELD STONE AREA SYNAGOGUE IF THAT'S STILL IN DESIGN PROCESS THERE AND THEN RUNNING UP THE EAST SIDE OF THE ROAD.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND THERE WOULD THERE BE A LIGHT OR CROSS HAVE WE.

RYAN COYNE: NOT THERE YET.

RYAN COYNE: THERE WILL BE A CROSSING.

RYAN COYNE: MOST LIKELY AT AN INTERSECTION WITH A PUSH BUTTON ACTIVATED FLASHING LIGHT ARE BE LIKE WE HAVE A BLIND BROOK LODGE OR.

RYAN COYNE: YOU KNOW POST ROAD THAT THAT IS THE PLAN NOW.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ALL RIGHT, I DIDN'T WANT TO REALLY GOOD I KNOW DESIGN WILL COME BACK TO US, IT JUST WASN'T SURE IF ANYTHING HAS CHANGED, THANK YOU EXCITED TO SEE SOME MOVEMENT.

RYAN COYNE: SYDNEY ALL HBC THE DESIGN IS CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS ARE JUST ABOUT COMPLETED, WE HAVE A FINAL VAR AND LANDMARKS COMMITTEE REVIEW FOR THE EXTERIOR.

RYAN COYNE: CONDENSING UNITS TO GO ALONG WITH THIS, WE WERE THERE ONCE AND WE HAD TO ADDRESS SOME COMMENTS AND WE'LL BE BACK THERE IN SEPTEMBER AND WE'RE READY TO BID THIS COME BACK TO YOU FOR A BIT AWARD AND BEGIN CONSTRUCTION THIS THIS WINTER, SO THIS IS PROGRESSED DESIGN ANYWAYS PROTEST WELL.

RYAN COYNE: THE MILTON CHANNEL DREDGING PROJECTS THAT.

RYAN COYNE: IS ACTUALLY OUT TO BID SO WE'VE DONE OUT TO BID FOR THE CHANNEL JUDGE AND THE.

RYAN COYNE: BOAT BASE AND FUNDED BASED IN DREDGE NOW.

RYAN COYNE: BIDS ARE OPENING UP IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS ON AUGUST 25.

RYAN COYNE: FOR AN ANTICIPATED COUNCIL AWARD ON THIS AT THE SEPTEMBER COUNCIL MEETING.

RYAN COYNE: SO THIS HAS BEEN ANOTHER LONG TIME COMING PROJECT I THINK THERE'S SOME EXCITEMENT BEHIND IT.

RYAN COYNE: WE HAVE A PERMITTED WINDOW TO DREDGE HAVE NO EARLIER THAN OCTOBER 1 AND NO LATER THAN DECEMBER 31, WHICH IS A.

RYAN COYNE: YOU KNOW RELATIVELY SHORT TIMEFRAME, SO THE THE JUST AS A POINT OF INFORMATION WE'RE WORKING WITH THE BOAT BASIN COMMISSION IN THE SUB FOLDERS THERE WILL BE A NEED TO GET THOSE BOATS OUT OF THE WATER EARLIER THAN NORMAL IN ORDER TO FACILITATE THAT DREDGE PROJECT.

RYAN COYNE: BUT YEAH IF ALL GOES AS PLANNED, WILL WILL BE JUDGING THIS OCTOBER.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: RYAN THAT LOOKS LIKE A PRETTY ROUND NUMBER, THERE ARE WE PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT WE'RE GOING TO GET BIDS CLOSE TO THAT.

RYAN COYNE: UM.

RYAN COYNE: IT IS AROUND NUMBER.

RYAN COYNE: WE DO HAVE A COUPLE OF CONSULTANTS ON BOARD WITH THIS, THE COST ESTIMATES ARE IN LINE WITH WHAT THEY'VE SEEN.

RYAN COYNE: IN THE REGION, HOWEVER, SO I YOU KNOW THE ANSWER THAT QUESTION IS YES, HOWEVER, WITH ALL BIDDING.

RYAN COYNE: IT COMES DOWN TO SUPPLY AND DEMAND, AND IN THIS CASE FUEL COSTS SO PART OF THE DRUG IS IS NOT ONLY JUST THE MATERIAL FROM THE.

RYAN COYNE: CHANNEL AND THE BASIN, BUT WE HAVE TO TRANSPORT IT TO A DISPOSAL FACILITY AND THAT TRANSPORT TIX FUEL FUEL PRICES HAVE INCREASED DRAMATICALLY IF THOSE STATE LEVEL OFFICE THEY ARE NOW.

RYAN COYNE: THESE ARE THE BEST ESTIMATES, WE HAVE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE'VE ALSO GET TO THAT POINT BILL THE ESTIMATED COST FROM THE CONSULTANTS IS RUNNING ABOUT $60 PER CUBIC YARD FOR THIS ACTIVITY AND WE'VE ADDED A 20% CONTINUE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: INTO THE INTO THESE NUMBERS NOW YOU KNOW WHETHER THAT'S GOING TO COVER FOR DOLLAR DIESEL, I HAVE NO IDEA.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT WE YOU KNOW WE'RE WE'RE TRYING TO BE AS HOPEFULLY AS REALISTIC AS INFLAMMATION LAW ALLOWS TO BE.

RYAN COYNE: POLICE COURT IMPROVEMENTS.

RYAN COYNE: THE POLICE COURT DESIGN IS IS WELL UNDERWAY LET'S CALL IT 90% WE DO HAVE.

RYAN COYNE: A PART OF THAT WORK IS, WE NEED TO MOVE THE COURT OUT OF THE COURT FACILITY UNTIL IT IN ORDER TO RENOVATE THE COURTS, WE HAVE TO COME UP WITH A TEMPORARY COURT.

[01:00:03]

RYAN COYNE: SO THAT DESIGN IS IS UNDERWAY AND AND WE EXPECT TO BE BACK TO THE COUNCIL NEXT YEAR.

RYAN COYNE: WITH A FURTHER DESIGN AND IT.

RYAN COYNE: SO THAT'S AN UPDATE ON THE PRIORITY PROJECTS I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS, BUT WE DO HAVE SOME MORE SLIDES THAT I BELIEVE GREG WILL WILL PICK UP ON HERE AND THE FINANCIAL PART OF THIS THIS PLAN.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: RYAN, I KNOW THE SALT SHED DOORS CCTV AC EXPRESSED SOME CONCERNS ABOUT THE LOCATION IS THAT SOMETHING YOU'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

RYAN COYNE: YEAH SO WE WERE WORKING WITH OUR CONSULTANTS TO ADDRESS SOME OF OUR ADDRESS THE COMMENTS.

RYAN COYNE: WHICH WHICH.

RYAN COYNE: MAY OR MAY NOT TWEAK THE LOCATION OF THE BUILDING SOME OF THE COMMENTS WERE RATHER SUBSTANTIAL SO WE'RE WE'RE HOPING TO TO ADDRESS THOSE AND COME BACK TO THE COMMISSION AND THE CCA SEE IN SEPTEMBER.

RYAN COYNE: TO.

RYAN COYNE: TO REPRESENT AND HOPEFULLY.

RYAN COYNE: GAIN APPROVAL.

THANK.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: RYAN THANKS VERY MUCH.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THANKS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SO, SO NOW THAT RYAN HAS TAKEN ALL THE GLAMOUR OF THE FANCY PICTURES OF THE PROJECTS WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE HARSH REALITIES OF COST ON.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU'LL NOTICE IN THE AGENDA PACKAGE IN THE IN THE IN THE MEMO THAT JOE AND I PUT TOGETHER.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: A PRETTY COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF ALL THE PROJECT EXPENSES YOU'LL ALSO NOTICE A COUPLE OF LINE ITEMS THAT WE HAVE HISTORICALLY NOT INCLUDED IN THE CIT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ONE BEING STREET RESURFACING AND THE OTHER BEING STORMWATER SYSTEM, THE SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: PART OF THIS IS DRIVEN BY YOU KNOW, TRYING TO MATCH UP OUR VARIOUS SOURCES OF FUNDING WITH YOU KNOW ALL OF OUR PROJECT COSTS AND PART OF IT IS TO TRY TO GIVE ALL EVERYONE A REALISTIC PRESENTATION OF WHAT THE CITY IS IS EXPANDING, IN TERMS OF FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR THE CAPITAL PROGRAM.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IN TOTAL, BASED UPON THE BEST AVAILABLE INFORMATION WE HAVE, AND THE ASSUMPTIONS THAT ARE IN THE AGENDA, WE HAVE A PRIORITY CAPITAL PROGRAM INCLUDING STREETS AND STORMWATER HAVE A LITTLE OVER $44 MILLION.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHICH ON ITS SURFACE IS IS A SCARY NUMBER BUT YOU'LL SEE AS WE GET INTO THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES KIND OF WHAT HAS BEEN ACCUMULATED AND WHERE WE ARE POTENTIALLY AT RISK IN TERMS OF THAT FUNDING.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: GREG, IF I MAY BE BP, SO WE GO ON AND MAKE IT A LITTLE SCARIER OUR OUR GOAL WITH RESPECT TO ST RESURFACING HAS BEEN 1.8 A YEAR.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND WE'VE GOT THREE YEARS AT FOUR FIVE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND SO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WELL, RISK OF MAKING OUR NUMBERS SCARIER I WOULD I WOULD ARGUE THAT WE'RE WE'RE A LITTLE UNDER WAY THERE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHERE WE'VE ACTUALLY JOSH SINCE SINCE 2017 AND I'M REALIZED THIS PREDATES THIS COUNCIL THE CITY SPENT 1,000,005 SINCE 2018 THIS THE CITY HAS SPENT A MILLION.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: A MILLION SEX, ON AVERAGE, IT YOU'RE CLEARLY IN THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS WE'VE TRIED TO MAKE UP EVEN MORE THAN THAT, AND WE ARE GOING TO BE WITH THE WITH RYAN.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS SPENDING SOME TIME LOOKING AT OUR TV PROGRAM BECAUSE WHEN YOU INCLUDE THE COUNTY ROADS AND YOU INCLUDE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE THE THE ROADS THAT HAVE BEEN REPAVED BECAUSE OF CONTENT AND SUEZ WORK WE'VE ACTUALLY, I THINK THE LAST I KNOW THAT THE CITY HAS PAVED APPROXIMATELY 23 LANE MILES IN THE LAST SIX YEARS, AND I THINK WHEN YOU INCLUDE THE COUNTY AND THE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS I THINK IT'S IT'S OBVIOUSLY SIGNIFICANTLY MORE SO WE'D LIKE TO BE BACK TO YOU AS WE GET INTO THE BUDGET SEASON.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TRYING TO YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY WANT TO SPEND AS MUCH AS WE CAN, ON ROADS, BUT YOU KNOW THIS IN THE PRIOR COUNCIL HAVE DONE A YEOMAN'S JOB OF PUTTING AN AWFUL LOT OF MONEY TO WORK RESURFACING.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: YES, GO GOING BACK OVER THE YEARS, YOU MENTIONED, THOUGH OF COURSE WE ADD STILL A COUNCIL, WE HAVE THE HAND OF A COUNCIL STILL PRIOR TO OURS.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND THAT WAS A SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER AMOUNT, AND WE ALSO HAD OUR COVERED YEAR WHEN WHEN WE WHEN WE BACKED OFF SO WE'LL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO FURTHER DISCUSSION.

[01:05:11]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE HAVE WE DO HAVE ONE GRANT AGAINST THE PUBLIC WORKS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: PROJECTS CURRENTLY AND THAT WAS WITH ASSAULT SHIP THAT WAS A SAM GRANT THAT WAS PROVIDED BY SENATOR MAYOR'S OFFICE SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHICH OBVIOUSLY MAKES A BIG DENT AND WHAT THAT TOTAL COST IS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I DO, AND YOU'LL SEE US IN THE FOLLOWING SLIDES THE COST, SO THE DATE OF THE COST ESTIMATES, IS GOING TO BE IMPORTANT, NOT NECESSARILY ON PUBLIC WORKS PROJECTS BECAUSE THOSE ARE RELATIVELY CURRENT BUT ON SOME OF THE OTHER PROJECTS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT IN TERMS OF NET EXPENSE, WE HAVE WE'RE GOING TO SPEND PROPOSED TO EXPAND A LITTLE UNDER $10 MILLION FOR PUBLIC WORKS IMPROVEMENTS IN THIS IN THIS CURRENT PRIORITY LIST.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: MISCELLANEOUS PROJECTS WHICH IS KIND OF THE CATCH ALL.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT THAT RYAN WENT THROUGH WE HAVE $2.6 MILLION OF GRANTS RECEIVED TO DATE OR SECURED TODAY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE'LL TALK ABOUT GRANTS IN A FEW MINUTES AND MORE DETAIL, BUT I DO FOCUS YOUR ATTENTION ON TO COST ESTIMATES, AND THAT IS FOR THE FOR 70 SIDEWALKS AND POLICE COURT FACILITIES THOSE COST ESTIMATES ARE DATED, TO SAY THE LEAST.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND WE ARE GOING TO BE WORKING TO UPDATE THOSE OBVIOUSLY WE GET INTO THE DESIGN.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: PRESENTATION FOR THE SIDEWALKS YOU'LL SEE A MORE CURRENT NUMBER, BUT I CAUTION YOU THAT THOSE TWO COST ESTIMATES ARE VERY DATED AND ARE GOING TO BE IMPORTANT, GIVEN THE THE SIZE OF THOSE TWO PROJECTS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: NOW GOING INTO MORE OF THE FINANCIAL ASPECT, THE SOURCES OF FUNDS THAT THE CITY HAS IN THIS COUNCIL AND PRIOR COUNCIL HAVE SECURED OUR ARE QUITE SIGNIFICANT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE DID, AS YOU KNOW, IN FEBRUARY BOND FOR THE MAXIMUM COUNCIL AUTHORIZED AMOUNT SO THAT THAT MONEY IS IN HAND, YOU HAVE THE CITY HAS PUT AWAY A LITTLE OVER SIX AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS ON MOST OF THAT IN THE LAST FOUR YEARS FOR THE CAB X PRODUCT PROGRAM.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE DO HAVE THE RAMBLE EXPENSE, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT FINAL NUMBERS, GOING TO BE, BUT WE DO HAVE THE RAMBLE EXPENSE THAT WILL COUNT AGAINST THAT CAP X RESERVE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE DID IN THE LAST WEEK AND A HALF, RECEIVE THE SECOND HALF OF OUR ON FEDERAL MONIES FOR THE RECOVERY ACT WE RECEIVED THE FIRST 800 LAST YEAR AND THAT'S INCLUDED IN THE CAP X RESERVE AND WE JUST RECEIVED THE SECOND LIKE I SAID IN THE LAST WEEK AND A HALF.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE MOST IMPORTANT NUMBER ON THIS PAGE IS CLEARLY THAT SECOND GRANT WE HAVE JUST PUT IN FOR THE WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM GRANT, WHICH IS A STATE GRANT STATE OF NEW YORK GRANT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE DID RECEIVE THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT, THREE YEARS AGO FOR OUR SANITARY SEWER MANDATED SANITARY SEWER PRO PROGRAM THE STATE HAS INCREASED THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF MATCHING NOW THAT $10 MILLION, WHICH IS WHAT WE APPLIED FOR, WE RECEIVED A VERY GOOD LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR FROM.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ASSEMBLYMAN OTIS AND SENATOR MAYOR FOR THAT PROCESS, BUT I CAN'T EMPHASIZE ENOUGH, YOU KNOW, THE SUCCESS OF THAT GRANT IS GOING TO YOU KNOW, AT LEAST IN THE NEAR TERM MAKE OR BREAK OUR CAPITAL PROGRAM.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AS WE GET TO THE LATTER PART OF THIS YEAR ON, WE IT COULD BE ORDERED AND FULL IT COULD BE AWARDED JUSTIN PART I MEAN, I THINK WE HAVE AN EXTRAORDINARILY COMPELLING GRANT APPLICATION.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND BRIAN SHEA AND AND RYAN, AND OUR GRANT WRITER PUTTING TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF TIME INTO IT, IT IS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TO OUR BENEFIT IS A SHOVEL READY PROJECT, AND THAT IS FOR ALL OF OUR STORMWATER IMPROVEMENT OR IRA SANITARY SEWER.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IMPROVEMENTS IT IS BOTH COURT MANDATED AND REGULATORY MANDATED WHICH BOTH MAKE IT A VERY STRONG SCORE, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IN NOVEMBER, WHEN THE THOSE AWARDS ANNOUNCED HER IS GOING TO BE VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO IF WE IF WE DON'T GET THEM THAT MONEY LIKE WHAT WHAT FLOWS OFF LIKE WHAT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WELL THAT'S THAT'S YOU'LL SEE TOWARD THE LATTER PART OF THIS DISCUSSION THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WILL HAVE TO HAPPEN FOR THE END OF THIS YEAR IS A REPRIVATISATION.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BECAUSE THE SANITARY SEWER WORK IS A COURT MANDATED OBLIGATION WE AND AND THERE IS A COURT MANDATED BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF 2024 SO.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IF WE DON'T HAVE ANY DISCRETION ON THAT ONE AND THAT'S WHY I WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT THE TOTAL PROGRAM ON DEPENDING UPON WHAT HAPPENED WITH THAT WITH THAT GRANT.

[01:10:11]

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: UNDERSCORE TWO IS IS NONE OF THIS IS RELATED TO FLOOD PREVENTION, AND YOU KNOW WE'RE DOING A STUDY AND AND AND WE'VE HIRED A CONSULTANT, BUT.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO AT SOME POINT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROJECTS ARE GOING TO BE, WE HAVE A GOOD IDEA OF WHAT SOME OF MY MAYBE BUT THAT'S GOING TO BE A FURTHER.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: REITERATION OF THIS, TO THE EXTENT THAT WE NEED TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS FOR FLOOD PREVENTION.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT'S THAT'S CORRECT NO YEAH THERE'S NO THERE'S THE BLIND BROOK IS NOT IN THIS, BECAUSE NOTHING IS FAR ENOUGH ALONG AND DESIGN OR SPECULATION OR ANYTHING ELSE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FOR THAT, BUT JUST AS WE'VE DONE WITH THE PROGRAM TO DATE IN THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, WE OBVIOUSLY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AS YOU SAY, WITH THE ENGAGEMENT OF DC MC AND OTHERS, YOU KNOW WE ARE GOING TO BE AGGRESSIVELY PURSUING.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW OTHER FUNDING AWAY FROM THE CITY, BUT YES THERE'S NOTHING REFLECTED HERE, EXCEPT FOR THE COST OF SOME OF THE LOCAL STORMWATER IMPROVEMENTS AND SOME OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND SOME OF THE INDIVIDUAL LOCATIONS THERE'S NO BLIND BROOK WATERSHED IMPROVEMENTS HERE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: NOW, SOMETHING THAT WE THAT THE CITY DID NOT DO IN THE PAST THAT WE ARE NOW, INCLUDING FORTUNATELY OR INCLUDING ARE ABLE TO INCLUDE IN OUR PROJECTIONS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IS STATE ANNUAL BUDGET MONIES, STARTING WITH THE STATE BUDGET TWO YEARS AGO, THE STATE ENHANCED ITS ALLOCATION, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS FOR.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FOR LOCAL STREETS AND RELATED INTERRELATED INFRASTRUCTURE WE HAVE HISTORICALLY HAD CHIPS MONEY, WHICH IS THE CONSOLIDATED LOCAL STREET MONIES AND THAT HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN DEDICATED TO STREET RESURFACING FOR A LONG TIME.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHAT HAS BEEN ADDED TO OUR BENEFIT TO THE STATE BUDGET, AND WE ARE LED TO BELIEVE AND DO BELIEVE THAT THIS WILL CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS, OR TWO OTHER REVENUE SOURCES, ONE IS THERE'S MISCELLANEOUS ROAD ALLOCATIONS, WHICH IS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: RELATED TO WINTER STORM RECOVERY OR WINTER STORM IMPROVEMENTS TO STREETS, BUT, MOST IMPORTANTLY, IS WHAT YOU SEE HERE IS THE STATE TOURING ROUTE MONEY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT IS MONEY ALLOCATED ONLY TWO COMMUNITIES WHERE THERE ARE STATE ROADS THAT PASSED THROUGH THE COMMUNITY THAT THE CITY IS OBLIGATED TO MAINTAIN AND SO, BECAUSE OF THE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: PREVALENCE OF BOSTON POST ROAD WE ARE RECEIVING ABOUT $1.1 MILLION A YEAR IN TURIN ROUTE MONEY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT MONEY DOESN'T HAVE TO BE USED FOR POST ROAD, IT IS TO OFFSET OUR ANNUAL COST OF MAINTAINING THE POST ROAD, SO IT CAN BE USED FOR LOCAL ROADS, IT CAN BE USED FOR STORMWATER MANAGEMENT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ON LOCAL ROADS, IT GIVES US A LOT OF FLEXIBILITY AND SO WE'RE INCLUDING THAT NOW AS A SOURCE OF FUNDING THAT WE DIDN'T WE DIDN'T HAVE IN THE PAST, BECAUSE IT WILL OFFSET ST RESURFACING AND SOME OF THESE OTHER ROAD IMPROVEMENTS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE ALSO SEE HERE YOU HAVE ANNUALLY, WE COLLECT $600,000 IN THE TAX RATE THAT IS DEDICATED TO ROADS, YOU ALSO HAVE STREET OPENING SURCHARGES THAT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ON AVERAGE, GENERATE ABOUT $100,000 A YEAR, AND SO THIS IS A THREE YEAR PROJECTION OF REVENUES, SO, IN TOTAL, WE ARE PROJECTING AND AGAIN THE CAVEAT BEING THE STUDY TIP GRANT.

[8. Residents may be heard on matters for Council consideration that do not appear on the agenda.]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TOWARD OUR CAP X RIGHT RIGHT THERE WE GO SO WITH ALL THE CAVEATS I'VE GIVEN YOU, WE HAVE SOME OUTDATED PROJECTED COSTS, WE HAVE THE WI FI GRANT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE HAVE JUST ONGOING ANNUAL COST OF DELAY IN DEFERRED MAINTENANCE, YOU KNOW THERE, THERE IS SOME UNKNOWN HERE, AND I AM THE FIRST TO SAY THAT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHAT WE ALSO HAVE NOT INCLUDED HERE, WHICH YOU KNOW THAT'S THE WHICH IS HOPEFULLY SOME GOOD NEWS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IS NUMBER ONE IS WE HAVE BEEN RUNNING BUDGETS SURPLUSES THAT THIS COUNCIL AND THE PRIOR COUNCIL HAVE DEDICATED TO CAP BACKS ANNUALLY IN RECENT HISTORY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND WE REASONABLY EXPECT, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SOME BUDGET SURPLUSES CERTAINLY OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS AND THAT'S NOT REFLECTED IN THESE NUMBERS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IT ALSO EXCUSE ME, DOES NOT REFLECT OUR AGGRESSIVE PURSUIT OF ONGOING GRANT OPPORTUNITIES EVEN SINCE WE PUT THIS PRESENTATION TOGETHER, THERE ARE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THERE'S AT LEAST ONE OTHER SIGNIFICANT AND MAYBE A COUPLE OF OTHERS THAT HAVE COME TO BEAR THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE PURSUING NONE OF THAT'S REFLECTED IN THESE NUMBERS AS WELL AND IT'S TOO EARLY TO KNOW BUT.

[01:15:09]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FINALLY, AND I'VE REFERRED TO THIS IN SOME OF THE PRIOR COUNCIL MEETINGS IS THAT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN DECADES THERE IS A STATEWIDE AND ENVIRONMENTAL BOND REFERENDUM ON THE BALLOT IN NOVEMBER.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IT DOES HAVE SPECIFIC VERY SIGNIFICANT MONIES DEDICATED TO LOCALITIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PURPOSES STORMWATER AND SANITARY SEWER IMPROVEMENTS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND THE SUCCESS OF THAT IS WOULD HAVE A VERY MEANINGFUL IMPACT ON OUR CAPITAL BUDGET.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT AGAIN IT'S TOO EARLY NUMBER ONE WE DON'T KNOW WHETHER IT PASSES OR NOT AND NUMBER TWO THERE'S BEEN NO DETAILED GIVING YET IN TERMS OF HOW.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: HOW THAT FUNDING IS GOING TO BE PROVIDED TO LOCALITIES IN TERMS OF THE COMPETITIVE PROCESS, BUT IT IS, IT IS A STATE EQUIVALENT OF A STATE GRANT IF THE REFERENDUM IS SUCCESSFUL.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ON THE I GUESS THE LAST NOTE AND JULIE, THIS KIND OF SPEAKS TO YOUR QUESTION ON THE SOMETIME BETWEEN THE THIRD AND FOURTH QUARTER WE'RE GOING TO KNOW A LOT MORE BOTH ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DEBBIE Q TIP GRANT AS WELL AS WHERE SOME OF THESE MORE SIGNIFICANT BEDS AND VALUE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: PRICE ESTIMATES ARE GOING TO COME IN, I FULLY EXPECT THAT DURING THE BUDGET SEASON OR DURING THAT PERIOD OF TIME.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT WILL BE BACK IN FRONT OF YOU WITH WITH ALL THAT DETAIL AND WITH A NEED TO TALK ABOUT POTENTIALLY PRIORITIZING SOME OF THESE PROJECTS.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AS I LAID OUT IN THE MEMO SOME OF THESE PRIORITIES ARE MANDATED BY COURT OR OTHER REGULATORY BODY AND WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF LATITUDE THOSE INTAKE, FOR EXAMPLE, TO SAVE THE SOUND SO.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SOME OF THESE PROJECTS ARE REQUIRED, FOR I BELIEVE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY PURPOSES AND THEN SOME OF THESE ARE IN FURTHERANCE OF ESSENTIAL SERVICE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AT SOME POINT THE SALT SHED IS NOT GOING TO BE FUNCTIONAL ANYMORE UM, SO THERE ARE THOSE TYPES OF PRIORITIES BUT THAT'S GONNA THAT'S THAT'LL BE A MORE SUBJECTIVE DISCUSSION, ONCE WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE OBJECTIVE INFORMATION.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: GREG IS THE $10 MILLION AND ALL OR NOTHING, OR IS IT COULD THEY COME BACK AND SAY YOU GET TO AND THEN WE'RE LOOKING AT A WHOLE 10 VERSES TWO OKAY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YES, IT'S I'M SORRY I SHOULD HAVE SAID THAT BEFORE IT'S IT'S NOT AN ALL OR NONE, THEY COULD COME BACK WITH SOME PERCENTAGE, BUT NOT ALL THAT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WE ASKED FOR 10.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: UH WE WE WE ASKED FOR 10 WE INDICATED A BRIAN I BELIEVE IT WAS A $14 MILLION SANITARY SEWER NEED.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OH.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: DO WE KNOW WHAT THAT THE HISTORY AND REWARDING THIS IS TO THEY TEND TO GO PICK A FEW PROJECTS AND FUND THEM FULLY OR DO THEY SPRINKLE IT AROUND A LITTLE BIT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WELL, I MEAN THE LAST TIME THAT WE APPLIED FOR THIS GOT 100% OF WHAT WE ASKED FOR, WE HAD A SIMILAR TYPE OF APPLICATION, I MEAN THIS WAS IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE OF THE SETTLEMENT AND THE END THE END THE END THE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: CONSENT DECREE, SO YOU KNOW WE HAVE A SIMILAR APPLICATION WE PROVIDED SIGNIFICANT ENGINEERING INFORMATION REAL COST ESTIMATES SHOVEL READY PROJECTS WITH A WITH A YOU KNOW, A COURT ORDER MANDATED PROJECT AND.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW I UNFORTUNATE I CAN'T TAKE GIVE YOU A LOT MORE COLOR BEYOND THAT, BUT WE DID GET THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT, THE LAST TIME AND WE SUBMITTED A THE SAME TYPE OF STRONG APPLICATION, THIS TIME AROUND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, SO EVERYBODY VOTE IN THIS IN THAT REFERENDUM COMING UP.

PLEASE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND THAT'S THAT'S THE FORMAL PART OF THE DISCUSSION IF I'M NOT SURE IF THERE'S ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR THINGS WHEN WE COME BACK TO THIS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WAIT AND SEE RIGHT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, VERY, VERY GOOD PRESENTATIONS.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THANK YOU.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: JOSH CAN I I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT ON THIS, BUT IS THIS IS FOR WHERE I AM SAID, DO NOT APPEAR ON THE AGENDA AND I RECOGNIZED NAMES THAT ARE CLEARLY PROBABLY HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA, SO CAN YOU JUST CLARIFY, PLEASE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: YES, THIS THIS IS FOR MATTERS THAT THIS PARTICULAR AGENDA ITEM IS FOR MATTERS THAT DO NOT APPEAR ON THE AGENDA.

[01:20:09]

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: A TOPIC THAT SUDDEN MAY WISH TO SPEAK ON HIS TRAP SHOOTING AND I JUST WOULD LIKE TO PREFACE ANY DISCUSSION WITH.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THE THOUGHT THAT THE COUNCIL HAS BEEN ACTIVE IN TRYING TO PROMOTE DISCUSSION BETWEEN WESTCHESTER COUNTRY CLUB AND ITS NEIGHBORS.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO, SO FAR WE HAVE NOT SEEN THE RESULTS OF THAT DISCUSSION, BUT THAT THAT'S WHAT WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING AS WE'VE BEEN LEARNING ABOUT THIS FROM THE VARIOUS PARTIES WHO ARE INTERESTED.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: KRISTIN COULD YOU INVITE A FIRST SPEAKER.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: MR MAYOR YEAH WE HAVE EDWARD LAMANDA TO SPEAK.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: WILL ALLOW HIM TO SLEEP NOW.

EDWARD LAMANNA: GOOD MORNING HELLO, MY NAME IS EVERETT MANA.

EDWARD LAMANNA: I LIVE AT 232 CENTRAL AVENUE AND I'M SPEAKING TODAY BECAUSE GAGLIANO TO PARK IS IN DESPERATE NEED OF A REMODEL.

EDWARD LAMANNA: EVERY NEIGHBOR THAT I CAN SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT THIS AGREES ON MANY OF THE NEIGHBORS THAT I'M REFERRING TO, OR A NEEDLE RIGHT, YOU WOULD KNOW THAT MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS GOING PRECIPITOUSLY AND IT HAS, OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS.

EDWARD LAMANNA: YOU KNOW THE AVERAGE HOME VALUE ON CENTRAL AVENUE BETWEEN CLINTON MAPLES NOW 1.6 MILLION.

EDWARD LAMANNA: THE SURROUNDING BLOCKS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXPANSION SEVERAL HOMES WITHIN THREE BLOCKS OF GAGLIANO PARKER EITHER CURRENTLY FOR SALE OR UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND.

EDWARD LAMANNA: YOU KNOW I SAY THIS JUST TO EMPHASIZE THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW, TAX REVENUE GENERATED FROM THESE NEW HOME SALES CERTAINLY PAY FOR SOME EQUIPMENT, THERE ARE THERE ARE DOZENS OF CHILDREN LIVING IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD ALL THE NEW FAMILIES MOVING IN HAVE CHILDREN, IT SEEMS. EDWARD LAMANNA: AND THE PEOPLE HERE WOULD LOVE TO GO TO GAGLIANO PLAYGROUND, BUT YOU COULD GO THERE ANYTIME OF DAY AND YOU WOULD FIND NO CHILDREN THERE.

EDWARD LAMANNA: YOU MIGHT GO THERE AT NIGHT, AND YOU COULD FIND TEENAGERS POSSIBLY DRINKING THERE BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN PLAYGROUNDS END UP BEING IGNORED.

EDWARD LAMANNA: THE EQUIPMENT THAT IS THERE IS IT'S NOT FUN FRANKLY IT'S NOT REALLY SAFE I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE ALLOWING MY CHILDREN TO PLAY ON IT WITHOUT CLOSE SUPERVISION.

EDWARD LAMANNA: IT'S IT'S STRANGE IT NEEDS ADULT SUPERVISION, BECAUSE IT'S IT'S JUST NOT REGULAR CLIMBING EQUIPMENT THERE'S NO TREEHOUSE THERE'S NO SLIDE.

EDWARD LAMANNA: AND THAT'S ANOTHER THING WE DON'T EVEN HAVE A SLIDE AND SO, MOST OF THE FAMILIES IN THE AREA, YOU KNOW WHEN WE WANT TO PLAYGROUND WE USUALLY DRIVE TO REC PARK, WHICH IS WONDERFUL, BUT WE ARE DRIVING THERE, IT CAN BE CONGESTED THE PARKING LOT.

EDWARD LAMANNA: IS IS SOMETIMES A LITTLE BIT TREACHEROUS, ESPECIALLY WITH SMALL KIDS ALL OF THESE FAMILIES WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO WALK RIDE BIKES PUSH THEIR STROLLERS RIGHT OVER TO GAGLIANO PARK.

EDWARD LAMANNA: WHICH THE CITY IS OF COURSE PAINT THE LANDSCAPE ON A REGULAR BASIS AND I'M SURE THE LANDSCAPERS ANYONE ELSE WILL NEVER FIND ANYBODY ON THAT EQUIPMENT WHICH NEEDS A DESPERATE UPDATE, SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME, I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT TO YOUR ATTENTION IT WASN'T ALREADY.

KRISTEN WILSON: THE PUBLIC HEARING ON BOTH OF THESE ARE IS LATER IN THE AGENDA, AND I BELIEVE THE APPLICANT HAS REP APPLICANT REPRESENTATION THAT COULD PROBABLY ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS.

JULIA: GREAT BUT LATER TODAY.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEAH IT'S AN ITEM NUMBER 11 ON THE AGENDA SO IT'S 21233 THINGS LATER AFTER THIS THAT HAVE COME UP.

JULIA: OH OKAY SOUNDS.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, AND NEXT SPEAKER, PLEASE.

KRISTEN WILSON: BOB.

KRISTEN WILSON: FRIEDMAN.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WELCOME BURB.

BOB FRIEDMAN: I'M AT 68,000 DRIVE IN RIGHT AND I'M GOING TO COMMENT ON THE WESTCHESTER COUNTRY CLUB.

BOB FRIEDMAN: TRAP SHOOTING PLAN CONSTANT GUNSHOT NOISE EVERY SUNDAY FOR SIX HOURS WILL BE ALARMINGLY DISTURBING TO THE 39 HOMES ON EARTH NURSING FIVE HOMES ON SOUTH KOREA NURSING.

BOB FRIEDMAN: AND NUMEROUS OTHER NEARBY HOMES THAT WILL BE PARTICULARLY DEVASTATING FOR TO NORTH NURSING FAMILIES WHO ARE LESS THAN 500 FEET FROM THE TRAP SHOOTING SITE.

[01:30:05]

BOB FRIEDMAN: THE CLUB'S ONLY RESPONSE TO 150 NEIGHBORS OBJECTIONS THROUGH ENDLESS GUNSHOT NOISE IS THAT TRAP SHOOTING TOOK PLACE AT HIS BEACH CLUB OVER 30 YEARS AGO, AND NO ONE COMPLAINED THEN.

BOB FRIEDMAN: AND THE CLUB HOLDS PARTIES DURING THE SUMMER AND NO ONE COMPLAINED ABOUT THAT THOSE SPECIOUS ARGUMENTS ARE NOT WORTHY OF A RESPONSE.

BOB FRIEDMAN: ITS NEIGHBORS ARE ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT TRACKS SHOOTINGS ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE BIRDS AND OTHER WILDLIFE THAT FLOURISH IN OUR AREA, PARTICULARLY INTO CLOSE.

BOB FRIEDMAN: BY WILDLIFE SANCTUARIES THE CLUB'S ONLY RESPONSE TO THOSE CONCERNS IS THAT IN ALL THE YEARS OF SHOOTING BEFORE 1993 KNOW BIRDS WERE SHOT.

BOB FRIEDMAN: THAT DEMONSTRATES THEIR TOTAL INCENTIVE IN SENSITIVITY TO THE BROAD RANGING ADVERSE IMPACT ON BIRDS AND WATERFOWL NEAR THE ON THE WILDLIFE SANCTUARIES HAS RESULTED IN AN OUTPOURING OF OBJECTIONS TO THE CLIENT FROM EVERY LOCAL AUTOBAHN SOCIETY CHAPTER.

BOB FRIEDMAN: CLUB AND SAID ONLY A HANDFUL OF ITS MEMBERS ARE INTERESTED IN TRACK SHOOTING IT IS JUST UNFAIR TO IMPOSE VERY ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES.

BOB FRIEDMAN: ON 150 PEOPLE WHO LIVE CLOSE BY AND I'M A LARGE BIRD POPULATION, JUST TO CATER TO A HANDFUL OF CLUBS MEMBERS THERE'S A SIMPLE WAY TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE FEW MEMBERS.

BOB FRIEDMAN: DESIRES THAT ANY ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES TO OTHERS, THEY CAN SITUATE THAT TRAP SHOOTING AT THEIR 600 ACRE MAIN PROPERTY AND HARRISON.

BOB FRIEDMAN: THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF LOCATIONS, THAT ARE NOT NEAR HOUSES AND THERE ARE NO WILDLIFE SANCTUARY IS FINALLY TRAP SHOOTING IS NOT PERMITTED IN THE ZONING DISTRICT IN WHICH.

BOB FRIEDMAN: THE BEACH CLUB IS SITUATED THE CITY CODE SPECIFIES WHAT TYPES OF ACTIVITIES CAN TAKE PLACE AND THAT ZONING DISTRICT AND TRAP SHOOTING IS NOT INCLUDED.

BOB FRIEDMAN: ALSO, THE PLAN WILL REQUIRE A PERMIT FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION BECAUSE TROUBLESHOOTING WILL BE TAKING PLACE IN A WATERCOURSE AND A TOTAL WETLAND.

BOB FRIEDMAN: THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME, THANK YOU.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU.

KRISTEN WILSON: DR BOB FLOWER.

DR BOB FLOWER: YES, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY AND I WOULD LIKE TO ALLY, MY FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS AS WELL AS THE CITY COUNCIL WITH SOME SCIENCE AND HISTORICAL FACTS THIS FILM IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT 71 YEARS WE SHOT TRAP.

DR BOB FLOWER: AT THE VERY LOCATION WE'RE PLANNING NOW WITHOUT ANY INCIDENT WHATSOEVER, THERE HAS NEVER BEEN AN INJURY TO NEIGHBOR OR PARTICIPANT AND AND AND ANY REGARD NO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: FLOUR, IT COULD YOU PROVIDE US WITH YOUR ADDRESS, PLEASE.

DR BOB FLOWER: PHYSICALLY, BUT ALSO WITH WORD WELL WATERFOWL.

DR BOB FLOWER: WE HAVE NEVER HAD AN INCIDENT WHERE ANY TYPE OF WHAT A FILE HAS BEEN INJURED, AND WE EXPECT TO CONTINUE THAT ENCOURAGED SHOOTING NOW AS TO THE SOUND.

DR BOB FLOWER: THE SCIENCE OUR NEIGHBORS ARE FEARING SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T EXIST, THE AND I, WE PRESENTED A PACKAGE TO THE COUNCIL, SHOWING SCIENTIFIC STUDIES FROM VARIOUS UNIVERSITIES ARE RELEVANT TO DECIMAL RATINGS THAT DOES SYMBOL RATINGS FOR.

DR BOB FLOWER: MUSIC ROCK CONCERTS THAT WE PLAY FREQUENTLY AT THE BEACH CLUB LATE INTO THE NIGHT RELATES TO A 12 GAUGE SHOTGUN BLAST, BUT THIS WILL RATING IS FOR BOTH AROUND 150 DECIBELS.

DR BOB FLOWER: SO WE DON'T RECEIVE ANY SORT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT FREQUENT APPLICATIONS OF OF MUSIC OF THIS NATURE, BUT WE'RE BEING THREATENED WITH WITH THAT OF.

[01:35:01]

DR BOB FLOWER: ACCORDING TO PHYSICS SOUND PHYSICS, THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE SHOTGUN BLAST AND 41 FEET REDUCES THE DECIBEL LEVEL 273 DECIMALS AS COMPARISON.

DR BOB FLOWER: OF PHONE DIAL IS 80 DECIBELS AND I MAY ADD THAT, ACCORDING TO NEW YORK STATE GENERAL BUSINESS LAW SECTION 150 THAT ADDRESSES RANGE PROTECTION THAT THE MAXIMUM THEY DECLARE IS 85 DECIBELS WE SCIENTIFICALLY AND AND AN ACTUALITY.

DR BOB FLOWER: DO NOT APPROACH THAT NUMBER AND FURTHER WE ARE OFFERING AT OUR OWN EXPENSE THAT IF, IN THE EVENT.

DR BOB FLOWER: THAT DECIMAL RATING BOTHERS THE NEIGHBORS WE WILL BUILD A SOUND RETENTION SYSTEM AT OUR OWN COST, WHICH WILL REDUCE THE DECIBEL LEVEL ANOTHER 28 TO 30 DESK DECIMALS I MEAN WE'RE AT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WHISPERY AT THIS POINT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: REAL TIME.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: TIMES UP TIMES UP.

BOBBIE GOTTLIEB: BECAUSE OF THE GROWING OF GUN SHOOTING TRACK OF EASE IN OUR COUNTRY IT'S AN INCREASINGLY MORE FRIGHTENING MORE UPSETTING MORE ALARMING SOUND TO OUR KIDS AND TWO ADULTS AS WELL.

BOBBIE GOTTLIEB: I HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT GUNSHOT IN A VERY QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD I HOPE THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER HAVE THE SOUND OF GUNFIRE WILL DISPEL OUR FEELINGS OF HOME.

TUCKMAN: COMMENTARY SUPPLIERS, I APOLOGIZE, AND ALL OF THE LOGISTICS AND THE SCIENTIFIC FACTS IT CAN'T CHANGE THE REALITY THAT ALL OF THESE KIDS ARE FACING ON A DAILY BASIS, AS WELL AS ADULTS.

TUCKMAN: AND UNFORTUNATELY IT'S A REALITY THAT WE'RE ALL FACING EVERY DAY, AND WE DO LIVE IN A REALLY BEAUTIFUL ENVIRONMENT AND, IN ADDITION TO THE HUMANS THAT ARE HERE THE BIRDS.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: YOU KNOW I ECHO YOU KNOW MY NEIGHBORS CONCERNS THERE'S ABOUT 25 OR SO YOUNG CHILDREN ON NORTH NURSING UNDER THE AGE OF 10 AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT YOU KNOW UNDERSTANDS.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: THE WESTCHESTER COUNTRY CLUB BEACH AREA, IT IS RIGHT NEXT TO OUR OWN BEACH IN NORTH MASTERSON AND THERE WAS NO BARRIERS IN BETWEEN THOSE AREAS IT'S ONE CONTINUOUS SPEECH.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: ON IN THE SUMMER, MANY OF THE MEMBERS OF WESTCHESTER COUNTRY CLUB SPEECH CLUB COME ON TO OUR BEACH ON BECAUSE THE REALITY.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: IS YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW WHERE ONE BEACH STARTS IN ONE BEACH, AND I KNOW MY CHILDREN, AS WELL AS MANY OTHER CHILDREN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: DURING THE WINTER UTILIZE THAT BEACH, AND IT IS COMPLETELY LEGAL AND ACCEPTABLE FOR THE CHILDREN TO START ON OUR BEACH AND WALK UNDER THE HIGH TIDE LINE WHICH.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: DURING LOW TIDE IS ABOUT 50 TO 100 YARDS LONG AND WALK ALL ALONG THAT ENTIRE BEACH WHERE WHERE THE SHORE IS COLLECTING SEASHELLS AND SEA GLASS.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: THE DIFFERENCE GEOGRAPHICALLY OF WHERE THE OTHER CLUBS THAT ARE DOING SKEET SHOOTING ARE IS THERE ARE NOT HOMES THERE AND SUCH THAT.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: IF THIS WERE TO GO THROUGH, YOU WOULD HAVE KIDS THAT ARE LITERALLY WALKING ALONG THE SHORE AS SHOTGUNS ARE BEING FIRED OVER THEIR HEADS.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: SO I WANT YOU TO APPRECIATE THAT GEOGRAPHICALLY, THIS IS VERY DIFFERENT THAN IN OTHER AREAS, AND THERE ARE AT TIMES IN THE WINTER DOZENS OF CHILDREN WALKING ALONG THAT BEACH FRONT DURING THE DAY BECAUSE IT'S FRANKLY SOMETHING TO DO, AND THERE ARE OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD CHILDREN OUTSIDE OF.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: NORTH NURSING THAT ALSO COME FOR THINGS TO DO SO.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: THIS WILL POSE AN INCREDIBLE DANGER TO THE CHILDREN TO YOU KNOW, IN ADDITION TO THE WILDLIFE AND EVERYTHING ELSE, IT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE.

GAVIN MOLINELLI: DROPPED GUNS BEING FIRED WHEN KIDS ARE JUST TRYING TO WANTED TO BE PICKING UP SEASHELLS AT SEA GLASS SOMEONE'S GOING TO GET HURT SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN THERE'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE WANTING TO DRINKING THERE AND IT WOULD BE A REAL TRAVESTY IF SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPEN RIGHT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU.

KRISTEN WILSON: MARTY BRENNAMAN.

MARTY BRADT: HI.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WENDY HI.

MARTY BRADT: CARRIE HI IT'S MARTY BRAD I LIVE AT 164 KIRBY LANE WITH RICK BRAD I ALSO RICK AND I ALSO OWN 176 KIRBY LANE, WE ARE DIRECTLY BEHIND WISHES FOR BEACH CLUB ON A POND.

[01:45:09]

MARTY BRADT: FAR FROM WILDLIFE RESERVES, ETC.

MARTY BRADT: WHEN WE TALK ABOUT DECIBEL LEVELS, I APPRECIATE DR FLOWER TALKING ABOUT DECIBEL LEVELS IT'S VERY IMPORTANT.

MARTY BRADT: BUT WE WOULD NEVER AS A CITY ALLOW FIREWORKS AT 150 OR 160 DECIBELS, WHICH IS WHAT HOW MUCH A FIREWORK IS, WE WOULD NEVER ALLOW FIREWORKS FOR SIX HOURS ON A SUNDAY.

MARTY BRADT: OR SIX HOURS EVER MUCH LESS EVERY SUNDAY FOR FOUR MONTHS, SO WHEN WE THINK ABOUT AND WE THINK ABOUT WE TALKED ABOUT THE CONCERTS WHICH WE CAN VERY WELL HERE FROM OUR HOME AND OUR PROPERTY.

MARTY BRADT: IF THERE'S A LOT OF LEAVES THAT ABSORB ALL THIS NOISE, SO WE CAN HEAR IT, BUT YES, THE THE FOREST ABSORBS THE NOISE IN THE WINTER WE DON'T HAVE THE FOREST SO SOUND TRAVELS FARTHER OVERWATER.

MARTY BRADT: I UNDERSTAND OUR PERMANENT WAS ISSUE, BUT AGAIN I ECHO MR MR TUCKERMAN TALKING ABOUT WE WOULDN'T HAVE OR MR BOTS AND WE WOULDN'T DO THIS.

MARTY BRADT: IN ISOLATION OF NOTE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT WOULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS CITY WOULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS, IF THEY THOUGHT ABOUT ALL THE RAMIFICATIONS.

MARTY BRADT: AND I DO NOTE THAT THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA RELATES TO SOUND LEAF BLOWERS.

MARTY BRADT: SO WE'RE HERE TO TALK ABOUT SOUND WE'RE ALSO HERE TO TALK ABOUT I I DON'T HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN ANY LONGER, BUT I CAN IMAGINE THEY WOULD BE VERY SCARED SO I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND LISTENING TO EVERYONE TALK ABOUT THIS AND FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK, MYSELF AND THANKS VERY MUCH.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU.

KRISTEN WILSON: ANYONE ELSE, THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

KRISTEN WILSON: IF DR BOB FLOWER AGAIN.

DR BOB FLOWER: YES, SO JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS, FIRST OF ALL, RELATIVE TO THE BALLISTICS AND THE SAFETY.

DR BOB FLOWER: BIRDSHOT, WHICH IS WHAT WE SHOOT NUMBER 12 GAUGE NUMBER SEVEN SHOT HAS AN EFFECT OF INJURY RANGE OF 65 YARDS AND THAT'S IT.

DR BOB FLOWER: AT 100 YARDS, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CONCERNS, NO, NO FEAR OF INJURY WHATSOEVER, AND THIS IS STATISTICAL NOW, THESE ARE STUDIES THAT WE HAVE INCLUDED IN OUR PACKAGE.

DR BOB FLOWER: CONDUCTED BY BY OF PHYSICS PHYSICISTS AND AND FURTHER THE NEAREST HOUSE IS 441 FEET, WHICH IS WELL PAST THE EFFECT OF HURT RANGE OF BIRDSHOT AND, SECONDLY, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ISSUES THAT WE THINK WOULD.

DR BOB FLOWER: ROLL INTO TO THE SOUND IS THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT WE'RE AT 73 DECIBELS.

DR BOB FLOWER: TO THE FIRST HOUSE AND WELL BEYOND THAT AND IF IF IT DOESN'T WORK OUT, WE ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO PUT IN A SOUND RETARDING SYSTEM THAT'S GOING TO REDUCE THE NOISE DOWN DOWN TO PRACTICALLY NOTHING.

DR BOB FLOWER: AND I DON'T THINK THAT YOU JUST CAST AWAY 71 YEARS OF VERY SUCCESSFUL OLYMPIC SHOOTING.

DR BOB FLOWER: WITH NO INCIDENTS WHATSOEVER AND SAY OH IT DOESN'T APPLY IT DOES APPLY THE TECHNOLOGY IS MUCH BETTER TODAY THAN IT WAS THEN, AND SO FAR AS SAFETY IS CONCERNED.

DR BOB FLOWER: AND WE ARE, WE ARE VERY SENSITIVE TO WHAT THE NEIGHBOR HAS TO SAY, BUT WE THINK THAT THERE ARE OVER 400 MEMBERS.

DR BOB FLOWER: WHO HAVE ASCRIBED TO SIGNING UP FOR THE PROGRAM I'M HEARING THAT THERE ARE VERY FEW MEMBERS THAT ARE INTERESTED IN THIS THAT'S NOT THE CASE.

DR BOB FLOWER: WE HAVE WE HAVE COMPETITIONS, WITH THE UNITED STATES MILITARY ACADEMY WITH THE UNITED STATES COAST GUARD ACADEMY, I MEAN THIS IS A.

[9. Continue the public hearing to create a new local law, Chapter 122, “Landscapers and Leaf Blower Regulations” requiring all landscapers to obtain an annual permit in order to operate as a landscaper and restrict the use of leaf blowers]

DR BOB FLOWER: WITH EVERY SQUADRON THEY'RE BEEN CERTIFIED AND APPROVED BY THE AMERICAN TRAP ASSOCIATION, AS WELL AS THE NRA.

DR BOB FLOWER: THERE THE SAFETY AND THE SOUND OF FACTORS ARE NOT FACTORS AND MR MAYOR I WOULD APPRECIATE, IF YOU COULD ARRANGE A MEETING WITH THE NEIGHBORS SO THAT WE COULD DISCUSS WAYS OF CIRCUMVENTING ANY OTHER PROBLEMS THAT THEY THINK MAY.

[01:50:06]

BOB FRIEDMAN: THANK YOU, I WANT TO MAKE TWO QUICK COMMENTS, DR FLOWERS KEEPS TALKING ABOUT THE FACT THAT OUR NEAREST HOUSE IS WELL OVER 440 FEET FROM THE.

BOB FRIEDMAN: FROM THE TRASH SHOOT THAT VIOLATES NEW YORK STATE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION LAW THAT PROHIBITS THE DISCHARGE OF FIREARMS WITHIN 500 FEET OF ANY 12 SO YOU CANNOT DO CAPTURING WHERE YOU PROPOSED.

BOB FRIEDMAN: AND YOU HAVE YOU AND THE MAYOR OF ASKED IF THERE CAN BE CONVERSATIONS I HAVE REACHED THAT TO THE PRESIDENT OF A CLUB COUNTLESS TIMES IS NOT RETURN MY CALLS, EXCEPT FOR ONE PROMPTED BY THE MAYOR, WHERE HE SAID.

BOB FRIEDMAN: I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE OBJECTING TO OUR OUR PROBLEM YOU DO IT TO HAVE TO DO AND HUNG UP A THERE IS AN EASY SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM SITUATE YOUR TRAPS YOU AT YOUR HARRISON.

CARY & LOOMIS: THAT IS DESIGNATED BY NATIONAL AUDUBON AND THE SOUND OF THE SKEET SHOOTING WOULD BE DEAFENING AND INJURIOUS TO THESE BIRDS IN THE WINTER.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ELIGIBLE FACILITY REQUEST THAT IS BASICALLY A COLOCATION REQUEST FOR WORK AT A SITE THAT ALREADY HAS TELECOMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE AND BASICALLY THAT ALLOWS FOR CERTAIN EXPEDITING OF REAL PROCESSES BY MUNICIPALITIES.

[02:15:14]

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): DRAWINGS WERE PRESENTED THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD LAST MONTH AND WE RECEIVED APPROVAL SPECIFICALLY YOU'LL SEE HERE WE HAVE THREE ANTENNAS FOR THE NORTH FACADE OF THE TOWER THE TOP TIER THE SOUTHERN FACADE AND THEN THERE'LL BE ONE AT THE WESTERN FACADE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THEN, THESE REPRESENT THE ALPHA BETA AND GAMMA SECTOR PROPOSALS, THESE ARE THREE ANTENNAS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THERE, WITH THE HEIGHTS OF THE ANTENNAS ALREADY EXISTING ON THE SITE, SO THEY LINE UP WITH WHAT'S CALLED THE RA DI HEIGHT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ABOUT WHAT THE SCREENING WOULD LOOK LIKE AND AND THE REQUEST ACTUALLY FROM THE ARV IS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): COULD YOU IMPROVE YOUR SCREENING A LITTLE BIT COMPARED TO WHAT'S ALREADY GOING ON THERE AND WE SAID YES, BECAUSE WE HAVE A GREAT TEAM OF DESIGN CONSULTANTS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ARM, SO IT LOOKS LIKE IN THE PAST, PEOPLE HAVE TRIED TO DO THEIR BEST TO MATCH THE BACK FACADE THE STRUCTURE, WHICH I THINK SOME OF THESE ANTENNAS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEAH LIKE THOSE WHERE YOUR CURSOR IS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: NOT AS EXPENSIVE AS THE ONE THAT YOU ORIGINALLY ARE LIKE THE ONE NEXT TO IT TO THE RIGHT RIGHT LIKE THAT'S TERRIBLE SO.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): WE WOULD BE AIMING TO MATCH THE FACADE IN THE BACKGROUND, AS THESE BETTER SCREEN ONES ALSO REFLECT ON THEN, JUST TO KNOW I'M GOING TO SWITCH BACK TO THE PLANS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO AS AN ORDER THE THREE ANTENNAS OF THE TOWER HERE THEN THERE'S JUST SOME ACCESSORY INFRASTRUCTURE, INCLUDING CABLES AND RADIO UNITS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THE RADIO UNITS ARE GETTING MOUNTED INSIDE CULPABLE SO THEY WON'T BE SEEN FROM THE STREET, AND THEN YOU HAVE A CABINET BEING ADDED TO AN EXISTING PLATFORM THAT'S GOING, AND THIS SHRINK THIS A.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ELEVATION IS TRANSPARENT, TO SAY, YOU CAN SEE ALL DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE TOWER BUT THIS PLATFORM, WILL BE SCREEN BEHIND A TRIANGLE ROOF, PARTLY AS YOU'LL SEE THERE UM AND THEN WE DID RECEIVE THE COMMENT LETTER FROM THE CITY CONSULTANT ABELLA THEY HAD NO COMMENTS ON THE PLANS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THEY JUST DID THE DIRECTIONS FOR ONCE IT'S APPROVED HOW TO MOVE FORWARD WITH A BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): AND THEN, I KNOW, THERE WAS THE QUESTION REGARDING RADIO FREQUENCIES AND RADIATION, SO I JUST WANTED TO ARTICULATE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): FOR THE BOARD, SO THIS IS PART OF THE ROLLOUT BY DISH TO PROVIDE FIVE G'S SERVICE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO WE'RE TALKING DOWNLOADING UPLOADING THINGS ON THE INTERNET, AND THIS IS TO ENHANCE CONNECTIVITY ENHANCE SAFETY ENHANCE ACCESSIBILITY AND IT'S PART OF A FEDERAL ROLLOUT PROGRAM THAT DISH WAS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): DESIGNATED TO UNDERTAKE BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SO THERE'S GOING TO BE CERTAIN FREQUENCIES OF DOWNLOAD SPEEDS AND UPLOAD SPEEDS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): RANGING FROM ZERO UP TO UPWARDS TO 2200 WHAT'S CALLED TX AND WHAT TX SAYS INCREMENT OF HOW YOU MEASURE DOWNLOAD SPEEDS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): AND THEN, WHAT HOW YOU MEASURE UPLINK UPLINK SPEEDS THAT'S A INCREMENT CALLED RX AND THAT'S, RANGING FROM 619 20 RX NOW THESE FREQUENCIES ARE REFERRED.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): TO THEM, AS THESE ARE DESIGNATED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THESE ALL FALL WITHIN THE FEDERAL LICENSING PROGRAM AND THEN, WHEN IT COMES TO ANY POTENTIAL RADIATION IMPACT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ORDER THESE FREQUENCY LEVELS HAVE BEEN SET BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO ENSURE THAT ONE REMAINS BELOW THE FCC SAFETY MAXIMUMS.

[02:20:07]

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): RADIATION MEASUREMENTS, TO ENSURE THE PROTECTION OF HEALTH LIFE AND SAFETY AND TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH THOSE FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: AND I KNOW IT'S CUMULATIVE MAX.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): UM SO IN TERMS OF THE I WAS GETTING THAT JUST THE THE FREQUENCY LEVELS OF IT WHEN IT COMES TO RADIATE I BELIEVE YOUR QUESTIONS, MORE INDIRECT REGARDS ACTUAL RADIATION LEVELS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): IT ALSO INCORRECT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): RADIATION LEVELS ON THOSE ARE THOSE ARE REVIEWED AS PART OF THE FCC LICENSING TO GET THE LICENSE TO OPERATE UNDER THE REGIMENT THAT'S IN SETUP FOR DISH AND SO THAT THAT ENSURES THAT YOU REMAIN UNDER THE FCC MAXIMUM STANDARDS.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: AND MY QUESTION IS CUMULATIVELY SO YOU HAVE A NUMBER OF I MEAN I UNDERSTAND THE GAME OF COLOCATION, WHICH TO ME ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS, BECAUSE THE TOWER AT 66 BLIND YOU KNOW MILTON ROAD IS.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MORE ANTENNAS IT CAN TAKE UM, BUT I UNDERSTAND WHERE WE ARE LEGALLY UM.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): AND JUST A REVIVED BY RESPONSES, NOW THAT I UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION, THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): JUST WHEN IT COMES TO THE FCC LICENSE AND BECAUSE THEY HAVE SO MUCH EXPERIENCE WITH COLOCATION FACILITIES, THEY DO I, AS I UNDERSTAND, LOOK AT THE EMISSIONS IMPACTS OF ALL THE EXISTING AND PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE TO ENSURE THAT AT THE CUMULATIVE AMOUNT HUMAN SAFETY IS PROTECTED.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: THANK YOU.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, DO WE HAVE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS TOPIC OR QUESTIONS FOR MAX, OF COURSE.

JULIA: HELLO.

JULIA: AGAIN, SO WHAT DOES IT DO MAXIMUM.

JULIA: FOR THEM FOR THEIR POWER, I HAVE HERE UP TO 500 WHAT IS IT YOU HAVE TO.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO I DON'T WANNA I DON'T WANT TO GIVE AN INCORRECT NUMBER, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I HAVE THE CORRECT NUMBER JUST BECAUSE THIS IS A REGIMENT SET UP BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR THE ROLLOUT OF 5G SERVICE BY DISH SO.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): I JUST WANT TO CONFIRM THAT I DON'T WANT TO.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): MISLEAD BY GIVING AN INCORRECT NUMBER, HOWEVER, I DO KNOW THAT ANY STANDARD THAT IS APPLIED, HAS TO BE COMPLIED WITH AN ORDER TO OPERATE AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DOES HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO REGULATE AREA AND TO ENSURE THAT THAT SAFETY STANDARD IS MATT.

JULIA: EXTENSIBLE ALREADY LAME.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: EXCUSE ME I'M SORRY I JUST NEED WE JUST NEED A MOTION TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.

SORRY.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I'LL MAKE THE MOTION.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SECOND.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: RIGHT THERE WE GO OH FAVOR.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: HI HI.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND AWAY WE GO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: JULIE, I THINK MAX TOLD YOU, HE DOESN'T HAVE THE NUMBER.

JULIA: YEAH HE DOESN'T HAVE THE NUMBER OKAY, BUT.

JULIA: WHAT YOU KNOW WHAT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): IS THIS, AS I UNDERSTAND WHAT THE REGULATION BY THE FCC.

JULIA: REGULATED AND SOMEBODY.

JULIA: BILLIONS HOW MUCH FREQUENCIES, HOW MUCH ENERGY IS GOING THERE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): YES, AS PART OF THE FCC REGULATORY PROCESS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THERE HAS TO YOU HAVE TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH A VARIETY OF REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING RADIATION LIMITS UNTIL THEY GET THIS SITE AND THE RADIATION OUTPUT OF BOTH THIS INFRASTRUCTURE, AS WELL AS THE INFRASTRUCTURE EXISTS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ON THE SITE, MAKE SURE ALL THOSE LEVELS ARE MET, SO ALL OUR ALL OUR T'S ARE CROSSED AND I'S ARE DOTTED.

JULIA: I THINK PULLING IT, I MEAN ARE THEY COMING AND MEASURING IT'S ALWAYS IT'S JUST LIKE YOU, YOU PUT YOUR PROJECT AND THEY GIVE YOU A BETTER ME THAT THAT'S A BIG DONE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): NO, I UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS A THOROUGH REVIEW THEY UNDERTAKE ALL THE APPROPRIATE STEPS TO MAKE SURE, IN REALITY, THAT THE RADIATION LIMIT IS NOT OVERCOME AND THAT'S THROUGH A COMBINATION OF.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THE STUDY OF THE DIFFERENT ARCHITECTURAL MODELS ARE SEEING THE DIFFERENT MODELS LEAD TUNNELS, THE DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DESIGNATED FOR USE BY.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THE GOVERNMENT AND LOOKING AT THE LOCATION OF THE SITE AND AND.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): MAKING SURE THAT IT'S AWESOME.

JULIA: THAT'S A.

JULIA: COMMON METHOD, BECAUSE IT'S.

JULIA: MEASURABLE COMMON MEASURE OR NOT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): I CAN'T SPEAK FOR THE FCC AND WHAT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THEY DO ON A DAY TO DAY, BUT I DO.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THAT THEY ENSURE THAT THE SAFETY STANDARDS MAP.

JULIA: SO BASICALLY THEY ENJOYED BY YOUR BY REVIEWING YOUR INFORMATION, IS IT TRUE.

[02:25:05]

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): ENSURE THAT EVERYTHING IS COMPLIED WITH, AND THEY THIS IS PART OF A NATIONWIDE ROLLOUT SO THE FCC IS VERY USED TO LOOKING AT THESE PROPOSALS AND.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): AND THE FREQUENCIES ARE BEING UTILIZED AND THEY'RE VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE RADIATION RELATED IMPACTS AND MAKING SURE EVERYTHING'S COMPLIED WITH.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I THINK THE QUESTION IS THE PLAN CAN BE APPROVED, BUT THEN WHO MAKES SURE THAT WHAT WAS APPROVED IT'S ACTUALLY INSTALLED.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO I CAN'T SPEAK.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): I COULD, I COULD ASK THE QUESTION I.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): DON'T KNOW PERSONALLY, BUT I DO KNOW THE FCC HAS A PRETTY SICK PROGRAM INTO ENSURE THAT EVERYTHING IS COMPLY WITH, AS APPROVED.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: RIGHT AND I GUESS THAT'S THE QUESTION JULIA IS ASKING IF I, IF I UNDERSTAND IT CORRECTLY, JULIA IT'S IT'S ALL RIGHT, WE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: PUT A PLAN THAT MEETS THE STANDARD FOR FROM FCC IT, BUT THEN, ONCE ITS INSTALLED, HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT WHAT IS INSTALLED IS WHAT WAS IN THAT PLAN AND CONTINUES TO BE WITHIN THE LIMITS.

JULIA: LIMITS THE ENERGY IS CHANGING, I HEARD THAT TOO AND CHANGING IT FROM THE MORNING TO THE EVENING AND IT'S CUMULATIVE AND IT'S NOT JUST YOU KNOW.

JULIA: JUST A PROPOSAL TO TO REVIEW AND SIGN, I THINK, SOMEBODY HAS TO TO COME AND, YES, SO COME AND CHECK ON IT PERIODICALLY, I WILL SAY I DO NOT KNOW HOW IT GOES I I DEFINITELY WILL KEEP CHECKING THE FCC I'M EMAILING THEM, AND I MEAN YOU KNOW IT TOUCHES THEM.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): I WOULD SAY, BECAUSE THIS IS A AREA OF FCC REGULATION.

JULIA: YEAH YEAH.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THEY'RE THE ONES ARE GOING TO HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO APPLY THE CONDITIONS TO ENSURE CONTINUE COMPLIANCE WITH ALL THE REQUIREMENTS.

JULIA: NOW I UNDERSTAND I'LL BE I'LL BE YOU KNOW BE CHECKING ON THIS DEMO FOR US DEFINITELY I UNDERSTAND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ANY OTHER.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SPEAKERS FROM LOOK.

KRISTEN WILSON: WE HAVE I'M.

KRISTEN WILSON: NOT SURE THIS IS ANY VINCENT OH NINE AT GMAIL YOU'RE UP.

KRISTEN WILSON: YOU'RE STILL MUTED.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: CAN YOU HEAR ME.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CAN YOU HEAR ME.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YES, YES, CAN YOU HEAR ME.

KRISTEN WILSON: YES.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: ALL RIGHT, THIS IS NANCY VINCENT I'M A RESIDENT I'M A RESIDENT OF THE BLIND APPLAUD 66 MELTON ROW EMILY I APPRECIATE YOUR ARM ADDRESSING MR MAHELA ABOUT THE TOTALITY THE CUMULATIVE AMOUNT OF YOU KNOW, FIVE G.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YOU KNOW RADIO WAVES AND AND ITS SAFETY.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: AND READING THE REPORT, WHICH I DID, AND I.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: IN THE BACK OF MY MIND I KEPT THINKING ABOUT CUMULATIVE NUMBERS AND EMILY YOU MADE A VERY ASTUTE COMMENT ABOUT YOU KNOW, THERE ARE LIKE A TOTAL OF FOUR DIFFERENT COMPANIES A EQUIPMENT REPRESENTED ON THAT RESIDENTIAL TOWER, I WILL EMPHASIZE RESIDENTIAL REAL PEOPLE LIVE IN THAT TOWER.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YOU HAVE COVERED ON THE YOU KNOW SAFETY ASPECTS.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: BUT NOW I WILL HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: FIVE G TRANSMISSION OF THE WAVES, I WANT TO COMMENT ON THE CUMULATIVE ARM.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YOU KNOW, BECAUSE OF THE GREAT NUMBER OF DEVICES ON THAT TOWER WHEN IT CAME TO THE ENGINEERING STUDIES OF WEIGHT LOAD UNDER NORMAL DAILY CONDITIONS UNDER ICE AND SNOW AND UNDER WHEN I'M WORTHY WAS THE TOTALITY OF THE EQUIPMENT TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: FROM A STRUCTURAL YOU KNOW SAFETY STANDPOINT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO ONE MOMENT I'M JUST GOING TO PULL UP OUR STRUCTURAL REPORT THAT WAS SUBMITTED.

WITH OUR APPLICATION.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: WHAT WE'RE ALL THE OTHER DEVICES UP THEIR COMPANIES DEVICES TAKE IT INTO CONSIDERATION, FROM AN END, YOU KNOW, A SAFETY STANDPOINT, BECAUSE I'M CONCERNED ABOUT YOU KNOW, HURRICANES AND STORMS AND THE FACADE OF THAT TOWER BEING RIPPED AWAY.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO WE THERE WAS A STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS SUBMITTED WITH THIS APPLICATION AND AS PART OF THAT STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS ONE LOOKS AT THE PHYSICAL.

[02:30:04]

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): AND WHEN ONE IS ASSESSING THE STRUCTURAL FEASIBILITY OF THESE TENANTS, THEY HAVE TO LOOK AT WHAT IS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): CURRENTLY, IMPACTING THE BASE STATION, INCLUDING THE IMPACT BY ALL THE OTHER KIND OF TO ENSURE THAT THEY CONTINUE TO PROVIDE STRUCTURAL SUPPORT.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO BY ASSESSING THE BASE STATION STRUCTURAL FEASIBILITY THAT IN TURN ANALYZE THE IMPACT OF THE OTHER TENANTS HAVE ON THE TOWER TO ENSURE THAT SAFETY CAN BE MAINTAINED.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: AND WHAT IF YOU KNOW, IN A.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: WAY.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: THAT THEN.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YOU KNOW, SOME OF YOUR EQUIPMENT IS YOU KNOW OFF.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YOU KNOW, AND THE STRUCTURE OF THE TOWER IS COMPROMISED IS THAT YOUR COMPANY'S RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR THAT AT YOUR COST.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO, THIS WOULD COME DOWN TO RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE PROPERTY OWNER AND US AS A TENANT WITH ACCESS TO THE SITE, SO I HAVE TO DEFER TO THE AGREEMENT MET BETWEEN THE LANDLORD AND US AS A PROVIDER UM.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): I CAN SAY THAT WE ARE RESPONSIBLE, SPECIFICALLY FOR OUR INDIVIDUAL ANTENNAS ACCESSORY STRUCK EQUIPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): BUT I DO KNOW THAT THEY HAVE A GOOD AGREEMENT, GOOD RELATIONSHIP LANDLORD AND I'M SURE THE APPROPRIATE AGREEMENT HAS BEEN MET AND THAT CAN BE INCORPORATED THERE IN SO EVERYONE HAS CAN TAKE THE APPROPRIATE STEPS TO REPAIR ANY DAMAGE AND SOME EXTREME EVENT.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: OKAY, THANK YOU ONE MORE QUESTION UM, IT HAS TO DO WITH THAT GO BACK TO THE TRANSMISSION OF THE YOU KNOW OF THE WAVES.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: YOU KNOW I AM NOT AN ENGINEER OR ANYTHING BUT TELL ME DO THE WAVES GO IN A RADIOS 360 DEGREE, IS THE PROJECTION.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: OF THE TRANSMISSION OF THE FIVE G AND A 360 DEGREE SPHERE, IT OR IS IT YOU KNOW, A LATERAL YOU KNOW VERTICAL.

NEVINCENT09@GMAIL.COM: BECAUSE, AGAIN, I EMPHASIZE THIS IS A RESIDENTIAL TOWER, IT IS NOT ON A HIGHWAY OKAY, IT IS NOT IN A FIELD, IT IS A RESIDENCE SO ADJUST, CAN YOU TELL US HOW THOSE WAVES ARE PROJECTING BECAUSE, JUST A FEW FEET UNDERNEATH THERE ARE HUMANS LIVING IN THAT TOWER.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): SO ASHER AND THE PLANS ARE THREE ANTENNAS FACING TO THE WEST, NORTH AND SOUTH, AND WITH WHILE ACKNOWLEDGING THAT I ALSO GOT ENGINEER.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): JUST THE ATTORNEY I, I UNDERSTAND THAT THOSE THREE TENANTS FACE IN THOSE THREE DIRECTIONS, BECAUSE, EVEN IF THEY WERE TO TRAVEL LATERALLY AT FULL 360 YOU DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE SIGNIFICANT STRAIN YOUR STRENGTH IS SIGNIFICANT IN ONE DIRECTION.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): UM SO THERE MIGHT BE A RING THAT TRAVELS AT 360 BUT THE FORCE GOES INTO ONE DIRECTION THE ATTENDANCE SPACEY AND BESTBUY THERE'S THE THREE TENORS ON THE THREE FACADES.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): BUT THE, BUT THESE ARE TRAVELING, AS I UNDERSTAND, AND WE CAN CLARIFY, BUT, AS I UNDERSTAND, THESE ARE TRAVELING LOTTERY LATERALLY.

[11. Open the public hearing for consideration of an application from Verizon Wireless for antenna work at the existing public utility wireless communications services facility at 66 Milton Rd. (Part 1 of 2)]

KRISTEN WILSON: AND NOW, MY HANDS, MR MAYOR.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, SO I.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CHRISTIAN I JUST TURN TO YOU FOR AN EXPLANATION OF THE EXPEDITIOUS SNUS WITH WHICH THE LAW REQUIRES A STACKED.

KRISTEN WILSON: WELL, YES, THERE IS THE SHOT CLOCK PROVISION OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT I.

KRISTEN WILSON: CALCULATED THOSE DAYS, BUT AS THE QUESTION, MORE SO, CAN YOU DO HAVE TIME TO CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING VERSUS OR YOU MEAN IT EVEN.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: IF.

KRISTEN WILSON: THE CANADIAN.

KRISTEN WILSON: I WOULD ASK THAT WE GET THE CONSENT FROM MAX TO EXPLICITLY WAVE THAT SHOT CLOCK PROVISION TO THE EXTENT IT IS ABOUT TO RUN TO THE NEXT MEETING, IF THAT'S THE WILL OF THE COUNCIL.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WHAT WHAT WHAT IS THAT HOW MUCH DISCRETION, DO WE HAVE HERE.

WELL.

KRISTEN WILSON: YOU HAVE 60 DAYS FROM THE COMPLETE APPLICATION, WE DID REFER TO THE VAR I DON'T RECALL OFF THE TOP MY HEAD WHEN THAT DATE WAS MAX DO YOU REMEMBER.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): UM I DO KNOW THAT THE THE REFERRAL DAY, SO THAT THE FULL APPLICATION WAS FILED, I HAVE A DATE OF MAY 19 AND THEN THE REFERRAL WAS MADE BY THE CITY COUNCIL AT YOUR SAYS AUGUST THAT WAS AT YOUR JUNE MEETING AND I CAN PULL THAT DATA.

[02:35:12]

KRISTEN WILSON: TO DO THAT, IF THE QUESTIONS ARE THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED BY THE PUBLIC, IT SOUNDS LIKE ANSWERS TO THOSE I THINK THAT.

AS A REAL.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I LIKE TO PICK UP ON JULIE'S POINT AND THAT IS THE TOPICS THAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE THE ABILITY TO I THINK THIS WAS JULIE'S POINT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THE TOPICS THAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE THE ABILITY TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT, AND SO, WHILE IT MAY BE INTERESTING TO ASK MAX TO COME BACK TO US AND TELL US ABOUT THE FCC SUPERVISION PROCESS I'M DOUBTFUL THAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE ANY DISCRETION OVER THE FCC SUPERVISION PROCESS AND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I THINK MAX HAS ANSWERED THE AESTHETIC QUESTION AND I THINK MAX HAS ANSWERED THE SAFETY QUESTIONS AND I'M ALSO THINKING THAT AESTHETICS AND SAFETY ARE ALL WE CAN LOOK TO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND KRISTEN WILSON: THAT IS TRUE IF, IN TERMS OF THE CITY COUNCIL'S AUTHORITY, THIS IS A EXISTING.

KRISTEN WILSON: IT SAYS A COLOCATION SO IT.

KRISTEN WILSON: CERTAINLY QUALIFIES AS AN ELIGIBLE FACILITY REQUEST UNDER OUR LAW.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: BOOKS SO, THEN I WILL I WILL, I WILL NOT PRESS TO PUT THIS OVER.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND IN WOULD ASK IF THE COUNCIL IS READY TO VOTE ON THIS, IF SO, MAY, MAY I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE.

KRISTEN WILSON: WE JUST CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING FIRST.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: A BY ALL MEANS.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: EMOTION, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SECOND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ALL IN FAVOR.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I WANT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, SO NOW I'M ASKING FOR A MOTION TO APPROVE THE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: DISH.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WIRELESS APPLICATION THAT'S BEFORE US.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: LIKE I SAID I DON'T LIKE ANY OF THESE THINGS NO OFFENSE MAX I JUST I THINK IT'S HIDEOUS I THINK IT'S I THINK I WISH THERE WERE SOME CONSOLIDATION, SO WE DIDN'T HAVE THIS LIKE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THING, BUT I JUST I ALSO DON'T THINK WE HAVE A TON OF DISCRETION HERE, HENCE MY QUESTION, AND GIVEN THAT I WILL MAKE THE MOTION.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND ALL STUCK IN IT, YOU DON'T HAVE A CHOICE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ALL IN FAVOR.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I.

POSED.

CAROLYN D'ANDREA, CITY CLERK: TO BE DO A ROLL CALL VOTE FOR THIS.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): MAYOR MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, AND THANK YOU FOR THE EFFICIENT REVIEW OF THIS MATTER, I HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD EVENING AND LOOKING FORWARD TO APPEARING BEFORE YOU IN THE FUTURE.

MAXIMILLIAN MAHALEK (C+F): THANK YOU FOR FOR OTHER MATTERS, BUT THANK YOU.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU, SO NOW WE OPEN A PUBLIC HEARING FOR CONSIDERATION OF IT'S SIMILAR APPLICATION FROM VERIZON WIRELESS ALSO ON THE SAME BUILDING.

KRISTEN WILSON: WE HAVE ANGELA HOSEA LEAVE.

ANGELA POCCIA: GOOD EVENING MAYOR COHEN, MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL, MY NAME IS ANGELA POACHER I'M AN ASSOCIATE AT THE LAW FIRM OF SNYDER AND SNYDER WHICH IS LOCATED AT 94 WHITE PLAINS ROAD IN TARRYTOWN.

ANGELA POCCIA: AND I'M APPEARING TONIGHT, ON BEHALF OF NEW YORK SMS A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP WHICH DOES BUSINESS AS VERIZON WIRELESS.

ANGELA POCCIA: THE APPLICATION BEFORE YOU IS IN CONNECTION WITH VERIZON WIRELESS IS REQUEST TO PERFORM CERTAIN ANTENNA WORK ON ITS EXISTING WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICE FACILITY, WHICH IS LOCATED AT 66 MILTON ROAD.

ANGELA POCCIA: THE ANTENNA WORK CONSISTS OF REPLACING AND INSTALLING ANTENNAS AND ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT ON THE ROOF OF THE BUILDING.

ANGELA POCCIA: ALL ANTENNAS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED USING THE CONCEALMENT TECHNIQUES ALREADY UTILIZED AT THE SITE AND WILL MATCH THE FACADE OF THE TOWER STRUCTURE, ON WHICH THE ANTENNAS ARE LOCATED.

[02:40:06]

ANGELA POCCIA: I'M PLEASED TO REPORT THAT THE BOARD APPROVED THE APPLICATION WITHOUT COMMENT AT IT'S JULY 11 MEETING.

ANGELA POCCIA: AS I KNOW THIS COUNCIL IS AWARE, VERIZON WIRELESS IS ANTENNA WORK IS CONSIDERED AN ELIGIBLE FACILITIES REQUEST UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

ANGELA POCCIA: SINCE IT INVOLVES THE COLOCATION OF TRANSMISSION EQUIPMENT THAT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE TO THE EXISTING FACILITY.

ANGELA POCCIA: AND, IN ACCORDANCE WITH FCC RULES, I MEAN THIS APOLOGY SHALL HAVE PROVEN ELIGIBLE FACILITIES REQUEST APPLICATION WITHIN 60 DAYS FROM THE FILING OF THE REQUEST.

ANGELA POCCIA: THEREFORE TONIGHT WERE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING THAT THE COUNCIL ISSUE, THE SPECIAL APARTMENT APPROVAL FOR VERIZON WIRELESS ANTENNA WORK AND I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING THE INSTALLATION.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SEND YOU ONE ON THE COUNCIL HAVE QUESTIONS BEFORE WE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: TURN TO THE PUBLIC.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IS THERE, LIKE A VISUAL THAT YOU WANTED TO SHOW LIKE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TO SHOW, IF I CAN PULL UP SOME PHOTOS HERE TO SHOW YOU.

ANGELA POCCIA: SEE.

ANGELA POCCIA: OKAY, CAN YOU SEE THESE PHOTOS HERE.

ANGELA POCCIA: SO THIS IS THE EXISTING FACILITY, AND I BELIEVE MAXIMILIAN HAS SIMILAR PHOTOS THAT HE SHOWED YOU BEFORE WITH RESPECT TO THE DISH WIRELESS APPLICATION.

ANGELA POCCIA: THESE ARE THE EXISTING ANTENNAS UP TO SAY THESE ANTENNAS DOWN HERE, THESE SMALLER THAN ONES AT THE BOTTOM LEVEL, THESE ARE THE EXISTING VERIZON WIRELESS ANTENNAS.

ANGELA POCCIA: THE PROPOSED ANTENNA SECTOR THAT VERIZON IS PROPOSING WITH THIS APPLICATION IS GOING TO BE LOCATED RIGHT HERE, AND THOSE ANTENNAS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO MATCH THE EXISTING VERIZON ANTENNAS THAT YOU SEE IN THIS PHOTO DOWN HERE.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: ANGELA ARE THOSE THE ONLY TWO ANTENNAS THAT YOU HAVE IN THE BUILDING.

ANGELA POCCIA: RISING CURRENTLY HAS NINE ANTENNAS ON THE BUILDING AND THERE'S THREE DIFFERENT SECTORS WITH THREE ANTENNAS ONE ON EACH SIDE AND THEY'RE.

ANGELA POCCIA: LOCATING THE FOURTH ONE RIGHT HERE ALL OF THE ANTENNAS THAT YOU SEE ON THIS BOTTOM LEVEL I'M NOT SURE WHICH CARRIER THIS ANTENNA BELONG SO, BUT THESE HERE, THESE THREE HERE AND THEN THESE HERE ARE THE EXISTING VERIZON WIRELESS ANTENNAS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND THEY CAN'T BE CONSOLIDATED IN SOME WAY LIKE ISN'T THERE LIKE ONE PANEL ON ONE SIDE, THAT WOULD BE SLEEKER MORE DISCREET THAT ALL OF THESE STICKY ON SORT OF THINGS.

ANGELA POCCIA: I CAN'T REALLY SPEAK TO THAT POINT BECAUSE I'M NOT RADIO FREQUENCY ENGINEER, THEY HAVE DESIGNED THE SITE, BASED ON THEIR NEED FOR THE SERVICE IN THE AREA AND THIS SITE HAS BEEN EXISTING FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

ANGELA POCCIA: SO THIS IS WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY APPROVED AND WE'RE JUST ADDING THE ADDITIONAL SECTOR NOW IT'S AND KEEP UP WITH THE CURRENT NEEDS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: NO, I CAN'T WHAT WAS ADDITIONALLY APPROVED, BUT YOU CAN SEE HOW THIS IS BECOMING AS YOU CONTINUE TO TACK MORE THINGS ON IT BECOMES MORE AND MORE APPARENT LOOKING.

ANGELA POCCIA: I UNDERSTAND, I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERNS, I CAN'T SPEAK FOR THE OTHER CARRIERS I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHICH CARRIERS, THESE ARE UP HERE I'M ASSUMING IT'S AT AMP T AND T MOBILE, BUT THESE ANTENNAS ARE WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR HORIZONS INSTALLATION AT THIS TIME.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ANGELA CAN YOU GO BACK TO YOUR FIRST SLIDE.

ANGELA POCCIA: TRY THIS ONE DOWN HERE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: YES, AND SO THERE'S YOU, YOU HAVE TWO ANTENNAS THERE THAT ARE A GOOD MATCH AND THEN THAT'S POSSIBLY YOUR THIRD AND 10 IN THE MIDDLE THAT'S NOT A MATCH AT ALL.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: NO.

ANGELA POCCIA: CAN TIME YEAH.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WE ASKED YOU TO FIND OUT IF THAT IS OF HORIZON ANTENNA AND, IF SO, CAN YOU MATCH IT'S COMPANIONS.

ANGELA POCCIA: I BELIEVE THAT THESE THREE ANTENNAS YOU SEE HERE THAT MATCH AND SIZE AND COLOR, THESE ARE THE THREE VERIZON ANTENNAS.

ANGELA POCCIA: I MENTIONED BEFORE THERE'S ONLY THREE ANTENNAS PER SECTOR, I DON'T THINK THAT THIS IS PART OF HORIZONS CURRENT INSTALLATION.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: AND PER SECTOR YOU MEAN PURSE FACADE SIDE.

ANGELA POCCIA: BUT ESSENTIALLY YES.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: AND NOW WE'RE GETTING TO THE ANGLED SIGNS BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH.

ANGELA POCCIA: YES, THIS SPOT RIGHT HERE.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: AND WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER SPOT LIKE THAT, ON THE OTHER SIDE.

ANGELA POCCIA: I'M NOT SURE IF THERE ARE VACANT AREAS ON THE OTHER SIDES.

ANGELA POCCIA: IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S ANTENNAS ON.

ANGELA POCCIA: EVERY FACADE.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: OF THIS TOWER STRUCTURE AND UNDER THE COLOCATION RULES ONCE WE'VE YOU'VE MAXED OUT EVERY POSSIBLE SIDE OF THE BUILDING, THEN WHAT.

ANGELA POCCIA: I I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE FEASIBLE TO CO LOCATE ANY ADDITIONAL ANTENNAS AT THIS SAY IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT VERIZON DOESN'T HAVE ANY MORE PLANS TO GO OKAY ANY ADDITIONAL ANTENNAS UP TO SAY OTHER THAN THE ONES THAT WE HAVE HERE.

[02:45:05]

ANGELA POCCIA: YOU KNOW THE NEED IS EVOLVING OVER TIME, AS I MENTIONED BEFORE THIS SITE IS ACTUALLY VERY OLD, I THINK THIS LEASE AGREEMENT WAS ORIGINALLY FROM 1997 SO THIS SITE HAS EVOLVED SOMEWHAT OVER TIME AND THESE.

ANGELA POCCIA: ANTENNAS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED HERE ARE JUST TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH THE CURRENT DEMANDS IN THE AREA FOR SERVICE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: JUST KIND OF BE A BETTER WAY AND I DON'T AND I'M NOW I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS IS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW, WE MAX OUT AND THEN WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO ASK FOR LIKE THIS, OR LIKE SOME HUGE POLE COMING OUT OF THE BIT I MEAN.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ARE THERE LIVE, IS THIS NOT A QUESTION FOR YOU OBVIOUSLY I'M SORRY TO THE LAWYER OR BUT TO.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I MEAN, MAYBE A CHRISTIAN OR SOMEBODY BUT LIKE IF THIS IS DESIGNATED A COLOCATION SITE AND BERNIE STUCK EVERY SQUARE INCH WITH IT MEAN CAN THEY SAY OH, BECAUSE IT IS YOU HAVE TO SHOVE, A POLL ON THE TOP OR HAVE SPIKES.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: COMING OUT AND.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: MAKE IT LIKE A FRANKENSTEIN THING.

KRISTEN WILSON: NO, I MEAN IT'S THERE ARE, I KNOW THAT THERE ARE CERTAIN SEPARATION BUFFERS BETWEEN DIFFERENT SECTORS AND DIFFERENT ANTENNAS.

KRISTEN WILSON: JUST IF IT BECOMES AND IT'S FULLY LOCATED INTO WELL WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL SPACE, THEN THAT IS NOT A VIABLE SITE WILL YOU KNOW.

KRISTEN WILSON: WE DON'T, WE ARE NOT COMMITTING OURSELVES BECAUSE BLIND BROOK HAS BEEN USED AS A CENTRAL POINT FOR THESE ANTENNAS ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO ALLOW THEM TO GROW IN THE BUILDING A PORTS TO TO ACCOMMODATE ADDITIONAL COLOCATION.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: CAN WE EVER ELEC FORCE RATIONALIZATION OR, IF YOU WANT A NEW ONE, IF YOU HAVE ONE THAT DOES IT, I MEAN THIS MAY BE A BAR QUESTION BUT, BEFORE YOU CAN GET A NEW ONE, YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING ELSE MATCHES IT IS YOU KNOW IT JUST FEEL LIKE IT'S.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IT'S ABSOLUTELY HIDEOUS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND I JUST FEEL LIKE THE CUMULATIVE LIKE YOU KNOW, IN THE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I'LL JUST SHUT UP.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: I THINK YOU HAVE YOUR POINT WE HAVE LIMITED ABILITY TO CONTROL THIS RIGHT, WE KNOW THAT WELL NOW, AT THIS POINT, AND I THINK THE ONE THING WE CAN CONTROL.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: IS THE AESTHETIC AND IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD UM SO I DON'T KNOW IF WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR IS REALLY UM.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WE HAVE LIKE A VISUAL MARKET, SO I WANT TO KNOW IT'S GOING TO MATCH EXACTLY AND IF IT DOESN'T MATCH EXACTLY I WANT TO DO.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: OVER ON IT, LIKE, I WANT TO MINIMIZE THE THE AESTHETIC IMPACT HERE, SO I JUST DO WE ARE WE SEEING LIKE THE FAKE BRICK OR WHATEVER AND WE'RE MAKING SURE AND DO WE HAVE RECOURSE IF IT DOESN'T MATCH UP THE WAY THEY'VE SAID, IS GOING TO KRISTEN.

KRISTEN WILSON: SO THE VAR IS ADVISORY TO THE COUNCIL ON THIS.

KRISTEN WILSON: YOU HAVE FOR IT TO THEM, BUT IT'S ADVISORY BACK.

KRISTEN WILSON: I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE ARE THESE THE RENDERINGS THAT WERE SHOWN TO THE BOARD OF ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW ANGELA.

ANGELA POCCIA: THEY ARE THE SAME PHOTOS.

KRISTEN WILSON: AND DID THEY COME BACK WITH A RECOMMENDATION THAT YOU NEED TO MATCH YOUR EXISTING THE ANTENNAS THAT YOU HAVE UP THERE NOW.

ANGELA POCCIA: THEY DID.

BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT'S VERIZON ISSUE ABOUT THE MATCHING IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S THE ONES ON THE SECOND TIER UP THAT ARE MUCH LIGHTER IN COLOR.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: WELL, IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE WE'RE ABLE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHICH ONES ARE WHICH, AT THIS POINT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THAT I WANT RIGHT LIKE WHAT IS OUR RECOURSE THAT IF THEY SAY IT'S GOING TO MATCH AND IT'S GONNA BE FINE AND THEN IT'S THIS LIKE PINK BRICK OF CRAP LIKE, HOW DO WE GET OUT OF WE GO MAKE THEM GO BACK AND FIX IT.

KRISTEN WILSON: IT WOULD BE A VIOLATION OF THEIR BUILDING PERMIT OR THERE COULD YOU KNOW THE BUILDING PROGRAM INCOME INCORPORATES ANY CONDITIONS AT THE VAR THAT IN THIS CASE THE CITY COUNCIL AS WELL AS WELL WOULD INCORPORATE AS PART OF THE APPROVAL, I MEAN.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO I SUSPECT KRISTEN WE HAVE VIOLATIONS OF BUILDING PERMITS UP THERE NOW.

KRISTEN WILSON: IT'S POSSIBLE I DON'T KNOW.

KRISTEN WILSON: WHETHER THE VAR WOULD HAVE APPROVED THE LIGHTER COLORED.

KRISTEN WILSON: FACADES OR NOT I DON'T KNOW, BUT WE COULD.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: LOOK, IF WE'RE TACKING ON MORE LET'S LOOK AT LEAST CAUSAL REFRESH IF WE CAN LOOK I GUESS SEPARATE POINT FROM PETITION.

KRISTEN WILSON: WE CAN CERTAINLY TAKE A.

KRISTEN WILSON: LOOK AT WHAT'S UP THERE, WHAT OUR RECORD SHOW I DON'T KNOW IF SOME OF THIS MATERIAL CHANGE OVER TIME WITH SUN EXPOSURE AND I DON'T KNOW.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: I'M I MEAN, AS SOMEBODY I'M YOU KNOW I'M THE LIAISON TO THE BOARD OF ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW AND I DON'T UM.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: YOU KNOW I THINK WE TAKE THEIR WORD FOR IT, BUT I DO YOU KNOW I THINK THE GOAL IS ALWAYS TO MATCH IT, IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE WHAT THE BOARDS BEEN ASKING FOR IS AN IMPROVED AESTHETIC MATCH I GUESS WHAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW, REALLY I'D LIKE TO SEE A MAP OF HORIZONS CURRENT.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: INSTALLATION, SO THAT WE CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE AND HAVE YOU KNOW I'M BETTER PICTURES OF THEM AND THEN.

[02:50:09]

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEAH WE DIDN'T GET WHEN THERE'S A TON OF STUFF FROM ADDITION A PACKET BUT I'M NOT SEEING MY MISSING I DON'T.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: MAYBE I JUST DIDN'T.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: LIKE WHITE CORN IS IT'S LIKE THE NORTH SIDE.

SOUTH SIDE.

ANGELA POCCIA: SO I THINK THIS PHOTO HERE IS SHOWING THE, THIS IS IT.

ANGELA POCCIA: SEE THE EAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: THAT'S FACING MOUNTAIN ROAD.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: RIGHT.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: I MEAN I DON'T KNOW IF WE NEED TO BELABOR THE POINT HERE WITH SOMETHING I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE FOLLOW UP ON.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: YEAH I.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I THINK WE HAVE THE BAR HAVING MADE A DECISION POLL READY THAT'S VERY.

JOSEPH FAZZINO CITY COMPTROLLER: WELL, WOULD YOU TAKE HIM OUT RIGHT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEAH I MEAN YEAH AGREED, I THINK, WHERE WE HAVE A DIFFERENT CONVERSATION ABOUT GOING FORWARD, AND I THINK THAT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IF WE'RE WANTING TO IMPROVE THIS IT'S CONDITIONAL ON THE FACT THAT IT MATCHES, AND IF IT DOESN'T WE'LL COME BACK AND ASK FOR RADIO, I THINK.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO LET'S LET'S IF THERE'S NOTHING MORE FROM THE COUNCIL LET'S TURN TO THE PUBLIC.

KRISTEN WILSON: CAN JUST MAKE A MOTION TO A PUBLIC HEARING.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: MAKE THE MOTION.

CHECKING.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OH, AND FAVOR HI.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I'M.

KRISTEN WILSON: JULIA WITH HER.

AND UP.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: QUESTION.

JULIA: SO I UNDERSTAND THAT LEVEL MY RECOMMENDATION, BUT THE PERSON WHO SAID HE DOESN'T KNOW.

JULIA: COMMENDATIONS, AT LEAST NOT BY YOU KNOW NOT THAT HARD BECAME THIS STANCE, IS IT POSSIBLE FOR SOMEBODY TO MAKE IT PUBLIC, WHAT IS YOUR RECOMMENDATION AND WHAT ENERGY LEVEL IS GOING ON ON THIS PLACE.

JULIA: SO PUBLIC CAN SEE THAT IT MATCHES OR DO I HAVE TO DO INVESTIGATION MYSELF IS FCC EMAILING AND YOU KNOW DOING IT, I CAN DO IT BY MY OWN I'M SURE THEY WILL ANSWER BY COMPLAINTS AND STUFF BUT MAYBE IT'S POSSIBLE TO DO IT BEFOREHAND.

ANGELA POCCIA: SO I WILL REITERATE MAXIMALLY AND STATEMENTS, BEFORE I AM NOT AN RF ENGINEER, SO I CANNOT SPEAK TO THE STANDARD LEVELS, THAT IS, YOU KNOW FCC REGULATED.

ANGELA POCCIA: MEDICAL AND DID ACCURATELY STATE BEFORE THAT THE COUNCIL IS.

ANGELA POCCIA: PRECLUDED FROM CONSIDERING THIS ISSUE, HOWEVER BVI CONSULTING, WHICH IS AN RF ENGINEER EMPLOYED BY VERIZON WIRELESS HAS PREPARED A REPORT REGARDING OUR HEALTH AND SAFETY.

ANGELA POCCIA: THIS REPORT DEMONSTRATES.

ANGELA POCCIA: THAT THE FACILITY, AND IT IS CUMULATIVE, TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION ALL THE ANTENNAS ON THE STRUCTURE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS.

ANGELA POCCIA: WE JUST RECEIVED THIS REPORT TODAY, AFTER WE HAVE REQUESTED EPI TO INCLUDE DISH AS WE WERE JUST MADE AWARE OF THEIR APPLICATION.

ANGELA POCCIA: SO WE CAN SUBMIT A COPY OF THIS REPORT TO THE CITY, BUT WE WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT THIS BE MADE A CONDITION OF ISSUING THE BUILDING PERMIT SO THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH A SPECIAL PERMIT APPROVAL THIS EVENING.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: AND, JUST LIKE TO CLARIFY THE DISTINCTION THAT YOU'RE MAKING IS NOT ACCURATE, THE CITY COUNCIL IS ALLOWED TO.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: ASK FOR CONFIRMATION THAT YOUR INSTALLATION IS UNDER WITHIN FCC REGULATIONS WE ARE ALLOWED TO ASK THAT QUESTION.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: SURE WE CAN TALK ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THE FCC REGULATIONS ARE SAFE OR NOT, SO WE ARE TOTALLY WITHIN OUR RIGHTS TO ASK YOU WHETHER OR NOT YOU'RE AN RF ENGINEER OR NOT, AS THEIR LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE TO CONFIRM IN WRITING, WHICH YOU SAY THAT YOU HAVE IN COMPLIANCE.

ANGELA POCCIA: YES, AND WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO SUBMIT THAT REPORT FOR YOU.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT MAYBE WE SHOULD GET THAT AND THEN FOR US, ONCE WE HAVE THAT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I I WOULD.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT, WHETHER THAT ASSERTION IS IN OUR AGENDA PACKAGE, BUT I WOULD.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: BE HAPPY TO APPROVE SUBJECT TO GETTING THAT REPORT IMMEDIATELY.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I LIKE TO HEAR IF OTHERS ON THE COUNCIL WOULD AS WELL.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEAH.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ALL RIGHT, WHY WOULD WE APPROVE WHY WOULDN'T WE JUST GET THE PACKET AND THEN APPROVE IT, THE NEXT MEETING OR AM I MISSING SOMETHING.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I I I DON'T KNOW WHAT OUR SHOT CLOCK TIMING IS.

[02:55:02]

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WE HAVE TIME, I AGREE WITH.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: JOSH.

KRISTEN WILSON: WE WILL NEED.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: TO YOU HAVE TO JOSH HAS ALL.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ULTIMATELY, IT IS A MATTER OF FEDERAL REGULATION AND.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET TO POLICE THE COMPLIANCE OF THE FACILITY WITH FEDERAL EMISSION STANDARDS IT'S JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

KRISTEN WILSON: WHAT WE COULD DO IS, WE CAN EITHER ASK FOR THE CONSENT OF THE APPLICANT TO TO HOLD THIS OVER TO GET THAT REPORT OR, AS I BELIEVE.

KRISTEN WILSON: THE MAYOR JUST SUGGESTED, YOU CAN CONDITION THE ISSUANCE OF THE BUILDING PERMIT ON THE CITY'S RECEIPT AND I CAN FORWARD IT TO THE COUNCIL, YOU CAN AUTHORIZE ME TO REVIEW IT WITH THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT THAT IT IS THAT IT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FCC REGULATIONS.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IS ONE MORE QUESTION UM, SO WHY WOULDN'T THAT WHY WHY WOULDN'T THAT HAVE BEEN PART OF THIS TO BE MAKING THIS ASK, IN THE FIRST PLACE, IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S A MISSING APPLICATION, IF THAT IS A REASONABLE THING.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TO ACCOMPANY THIS APPLICATION IN THE FIRST PLACE, LIKE SHOULDN'T WE HAVE HAD THAT SHOULDN'T THAT HAVE BEEN PART OF THE PACKET THAT WAS PUT IN FRONT OF US RATHER THAN.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IF YOU'RE JUST I MEAN I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW OUR SHOT CLOCK IS RUNNING OUT WHEN THEY HAVEN'T EVEN PROVIDED SOME OF THE INFORMATION THAT OBVIOUSLY WOULD BE RELEVANT HERE.

ANGELA POCCIA: IT WAS NOT INCLUDED WITH THE ORIGINAL BUILDING.

ANGELA POCCIA: PERMIT APPLICATION, I DID JUST RECEIVE THIS UPDATED REPORT TODAY BECAUSE IT DOES TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DISH ANTENNAS THAT ARE PROPOSED UNDER A SEPARATE APPLICATION BEFORE THE COUNCIL.

ANGELA POCCIA: I WOULD ALSO JUST LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT MISS WILSON CONFIRMED TO MR SHERIDAN WHO APPEARED BEFORE THE COUNCIL ON JUNE 15.

ANGELA POCCIA: THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO MOVE TOWARDS A RESOLUTION AT THIS MEETING AFTER REFERRAL TO THE BOARD OF ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, SO I WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU MAKE THIS A CONDITION OF ISSUANCE OF THE BUILDING PERMIT AND WE WILL HAPPILY SUBMIT THAT TO THE BUILDING INSPECTOR.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: GIVE IT WHY DIDN'T IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS NORMAL TO PROVIDE WHY WHY WOULDN'T IT HAVE BEEN RECEIVED SOONER AND GIVEN TO US IN AMPLE TIME TO MAKE THIS DECISION IT'S I'M SORT OF GETTING THAT LIKE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW, A LACK OF PREPARATION ON YOUR PART DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN EMERGENCY ON MINE SORT OF THING IN MY HEAD RIGHT NOW AND AND I DON'T MEAN THAT DISPARAGINGLY I'M JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS SOMETHING WE SHOULD HAVE AND WE WEREN'T GIVEN IT.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT THEN YOU'RE ASKING US TO SORT OF MAKE A DECISION, RIGHT NOW, WITHOUT THAT PIECE OF INFORMATION, IT JUST IT SEEMS IRRATIONAL.

ANGELA POCCIA: I DON'T THINK THAT THAT THAT TYPICAL REPORT IS PART OF A STANDARD BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION, I BELIEVE THIS WAS REFERRED TO THE COUNCIL FOR A SPECIAL PERMIT REVIEW AFTERWARDS.

ANGELA POCCIA: I COULD.

ANGELA POCCIA: CONFIRM THAT FOR YOU, BUT.

ANGELA POCCIA: LIKE I SAID I WOULD BE HAPPY TO SUBMIT IT, I WOULD JUST LIKE IT TO BE A CONDITION OF THE BUILDING PART OF APPLICATION.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT I THINK I THINK YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO AFFIRM AND ATTEST TO THAT WHAT YOU PROPOSE IS COMPLIANT SO IF WE DON'T HAVE THAT AND YOU'VE SAID YOU'RE NOT AN ENGINEER.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THEN, THEN WE SHOULD GET THAT THEY'RE WISE IT'S KIND OF BACKWARDS.

KRISTEN WILSON: SO UNDER OUR CHAPTER 196.

EMILY HURD RYE CITY DEPUTY MAYOR: X RIGHT, YES, HOW COULD YOU EVER FORGET THAT NUMBER.

KRISTEN WILSON: I GET IT MIXED UP WITH ZONING SO THE RF COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATION TO THAT EFFECT IS CERTAINLY REQUIRED AS PART OF THE APPLICATION I.

KRISTEN WILSON: I ASSUME THAT IT WAS IN THERE AND APPARENTLY WAS THAT I DIDN'T EVEN CATCH IT THAT FOR THIS MEETING WAS THAT IN THERE, SO THAT, TECHNICALLY, I WOULD ARGUE THAT IT'S NOT A COMPLETE APPLICATION UNTIL WE HAD THAT SO I.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: KNOW WE HAVE A COMPLETE APPLICATION.

KRISTEN WILSON: BUT I SAID BEFORE, AND IF IT'S NOT A COMPLETE APPLICATION, THE SHOT CLOCK DOES NOT START TO RUN.

KRISTEN WILSON: AND IF THE COUNCIL WISHES TO PUT THE PUBLIC HEARING OVER OR MAYBE JUST PUT THE DECISION OVER CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND PUT THE DECISION OVER UNTIL NEXT MONTH, IT WOULD BE WITHIN YOUR RIGHT TO DO THAT.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I I AGAIN WOULD COME TO A CONCLUSION.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND MAKE IT SUBJECT TO IMMEDIATE RECEIPT OF THAT INFORMATION LIKE TOMORROW ANGELA.

ANGELA POCCIA: ABSOLUTELY.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND IF WE DON'T GET IT THEN WE'RE WE WE WOULD TAKE THE POSITION THAT KRISTEN SUGGESTS UNDER THE SHOT CLOCK OKAY.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: DOES THAT WORK FOR EVERYONE.

BILL HENDERSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU WORKS FOR ME.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I'M GONNA TAKE SILENCES AS ACQUIESCENCE.

JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I DON'T WANT IT.

[03:00:01]

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO IT JUST ODD I MEAN I APPRECIATE THE DESIRE TO EXPEDITE THIS AND THERE IS A PRAGMATISM TO THAT AND I LIKE I'M A LITTLE TORN BECAUSE I HIGHLY RESPECT THAT APPROACH, BUT IT JUST BUGS ME THAT WE DON'T HAVE THE CERTIFICATION, I MEAN IT'S JUST THAT'S HOW THE RULES WORK SO.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I THINK WE HAVE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I THINK WE HAVE OTHER OTHER BUSINESS WITH HORIZON.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I JUST HAVE TWO QUICK THINGS HERE.

JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: GO AHEAD.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ONE IS.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I KNOW RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVING NOTES FROM CON ADD ABOUT.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THEIR POWER BEING SWITCHED FROM WESTCHESTER POWER AND I JUST WANTED TO ASK THE CITY MANAGER IF HE COULD.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ELABORATE A LITTLE BIT IN JUST SO THAT PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY'RE BEING ASKED TO DO AND AND HOW THAT ALL FITS I KNOW WE'VE HAD SOME PRESENTATIONS FROM WESTMINSTER POWER, BUT PERHAPS IT WAS CONFUSING.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SURE I'D BE HAPPY TO JOSH SO AS WE ALL WILL CALL PROBABLY RECALL.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: GIVEN COMMODITY PRICES GIVEN ENERGY PRICES GENERALLY SUSTAINABLE WESTCHESTER OR WESTCHESTER POWER WAS NOT ABLE TO MEET.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FIRST, ITS ORIGINAL RENEWAL CONTRACT AND THEN TWO SUCCESSIVE RESETS THAT THEY THEY INTENDED TO DO, AND A NEW AUCTION, THESE ARE OUR AUCTION ANNUALLY, IT IS A FIXED PRICE FOR THE TERM OF THE YEAR, BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO MEET THAT SCHEDULE THE OLD AGREEMENT LAPSED, WHICH IS WHY CURRENT.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: RESIDENTS WHO ARE INVOLVED, OR HAVE SUSTAINABLE WESTCHESTER WESTCHESTER POWER RECEIVED THE NOTICE, THEY WERE AFTER THE JUNE BILLING CYCLE MOVED BACK TO THE NORMAL CON ED ENERGY COSTS, WHICH IS A SPOT PRICE TO CHANGES EVERY MONTH.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE, THE COUNCIL DID APPROVE A NEW CONTRACT.

[03:20:01]

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I WOULD EXPECT THAT'S GOING TO BE IN THE NEXT TWO OR THREE MONTHS, BUT JUST TO REMIND EVERY ANYBODY THAT'S LISTENING, YOU DO HAVE THE OPTION TO ANYTIME YOU WANT TO OPT OUT OF THE CONTRACT SO YOU'RE AUTOMATICALLY PUT BACK IN IF YOU PREVIOUSLY SUBSCRIBE, BUT YOU CAN AT ANY POINT IN TIME.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WITH 30 DAYS NOTICE UP BACK OUT BUT THAT'S THAT'S THE REASON WHY YOU'RE GETTING THE NOTICE THIS WHEN THE LAST MONTH.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO BOTTOM LINE IS IF IF WE JUST DO NOTHING AND IGNORE IT OR SWITCHED OUT AND THEN WE'LL JUST GET SWITCHED BACK IN AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME AND IF WE'RE UNHAPPY WITH THAT WE CAN OPT OUT ON NOTICE.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT'S RIGHT IT'S ACTUALLY.

GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT THAT THAT INFORMATION IS INCLUDED, I BELIEVE, ON EVERY FILM, SO YOU KNOW IF YOU, YOU KNOW DECIDE, YET THE INFORMATIONS RIGHT THERE IF THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT TO DO.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YES, YEAH OKAY MIGHT MIGHT BE HELPFUL AND I LEAVE THIS TO TO THE CITY MANAGER AND COMMUNICATIONS TO POST SOMETHING OR PUT SOMETHING ON THE LISTSERV JUST PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ASKING QUESTIONS, AND IT MAY BE, SOME PEOPLE ARE FOLLOWING THIS AND IN SOMEWHERE, BUT YOU LEAVE THAT TO YOU.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND THEN THE THE THE SECOND ITEM WAS JUST.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: JUST A FOLLOW UP TO THE TRAP SHOOTING I KNOW, THERE WAS A LOT OF COMMENTS ABOUT WHAT THE LAW ALLOWS OR REQUIRES THAT WE HEARD TONIGHT AND WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF LETTERS AND IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TO ALL OF US IF IF OUR COUNCIL PROVIDED SOME KIND OF SUMMARY OR OUTLINE OF HOW THIS WORKS AND WHAT OUR OPTIONS ARE AGAIN I JUST PUT THAT OUT THERE.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THERE'S JUST A LOT OF LITTLE PIECES.

JOSH NATHAN RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL TO PULL IT ALL TOGETHER.
