ITEMS DISCUSSED:

Chair Carsky called the meeting to order at 3:10 P.M. On motion of Leg. LaMotte, seconded by Leg. Delfino, the minutes of May 14 and May 21 were approved 3-0. Leg. Latimer was out for the vote.

There was a discussion with the Planning Department on how to conduct the Patterns meetings. Chair Carsky suggested a Give and Take with the Planning Department outlining the forum. Comm. Oliva suggested that it could get off track since some subjects do fit into the overall process.

Chair Carsky suggested that the Planning Department do an overview for 15 minutes and then open it up to questions. Comm. Oliva suggested that Chair Carsky open the meeting summarizing with the fact sheet that will be supplied by the Planning Department. Chair Carsky also suggested that if the first forum did not work, we would adjust for the remaining.

Chair Carsky also wanted the Planning Board to sit in the front with the Legislators.

Comm. Oliva stated that her Department will bring summaries to all the hearings.

Leg. Latimer stated that the room for the Mamaroneck Hearing has been changed from the Senior Center to the Court Room - which will give us more space.

The Committee thanked the Planning Department for all their assistance.

The Committee discussed the membership for the Pest Management Committee. Chair Carsky asked Mr. Kriss to draft a resolution that the committee could sign out for the White Sheet naming the members. Since the Committee has not yet received Mr. Nielson’s resume, the Committee is going with the five members that they have received to date.

Leg. LaMotte again brought up the fact that no where in the legislation does it state how to elect a chair. Leg. Latimer suggested that the Chairman of the Board write a letter to the committee directing them to elect their own chair.

There being no further items for discussion, on motion of Leg. Delfino, seconded by Leg. LaMotte, the meeting adjourned at 3:45 P.M.
