TOMORROW…SATURDAY—MEETING AT GREENBURGH TOWN HALL AT 2 PM---State Senator Andrea Stewart Cousins, members of the Town Board and representatives of the NYS Public Service Commission will meet tomorrow at 2 PM to discuss the recent Con Ed Clear cutting of trees near transmission lines (Ridge, Sprain, Old Farm Roads, Underhill were impacted). We will then conduct a site inspection of some of the properties. Did Con Ed cut trees down that were not close to the transmission lines/wires? Can we get the PSC to require utility companies that clear cut trees to provide neighborhoods with new plantings? Should state/federal laws be amended to provide local governments with more oversight abilities?

Work Session Agenda of the Greenburgh Town Board
Tuesday – January 12, 2010 – 9:15AM
(Please note that, although the Work Session Agenda is shared with the public prior to each Work Session, the Agenda may be revised at any point up to the start of the meeting as well as during the meeting, if necessary.)
(All Work Sessions are Televised Live on Cablevision Channel 76, Verizon 35 and are streamed live. Work Sessions and Town Board Meetings will be aired each Friday, Saturday and Sunday starting at 7:02am and 4:45pm. Each segment will run for approximately 6 to 7 hours,
depending upon the length of the two meetings.)
09:15 AM Veteran Park (pool) Facility –We anticipate spending between 4 -8 million dollars on replacing the pool at Anthony Veteran Town Park within the next five or six years. The reason: The pool is aging (1979)—any improvement to the facility must meet updated sanitary code. Because of this expense – some people are suggesting that the town reopen the discussion of pool membership. Should village residents have the ability to use the pool if they pay their fair share and contribute to all upcoming capital costs? If a change is made should a mandatory referendum be held? Unincorporated Greenburgh residents would have the ability to vote on allowing non unincorporated Greenburgh residents into the pool. Another option: Mayor Leon of Ardsley will appear at this meeting—with another proposal. Question: Would the NYS Legislature have to amend the Finneran Law if the town wishes to open up our pool facilities? What amendments should we advocate?
