Members STUART GREENBAUM STEVE KRISKY CARA POLITI LEO WIEGMAN Village Engineer VINCENT SALANITRO, P.E. TO: Mayor Brian Pugh and the Village Board of Trustees FROM: Chairman Simon, Waterfront Advisory Committee RE: Referral from Village Board for a Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Consistency review for Local Law Introductory 14 of 2025 to appoint an alternate member to the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals for the term of one official year. DATE: October 23, 2025 On Tuesday, October 14, 2025, the Waterfront Advisory Committee (WAC) reviewed for consistency with the Village’s Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) the referral listed above. Based on the Committee’s review of the 44 LWRP policies, the Waterfront Advisory Committee made a recommendation of consistency with the LWRP. Village Manager Bryan Healy said that NY State allows for alternate board members if there is a conflict of interest. This law goes one step further so if someone is on vacation, or sick, an alternate member may sit in. Bryan Healy clarified that the alternate member would not act as a sixth board member and would not sit on the dais, unless called upon by the chairperson. The WAC reviewed the Short Environmental Assessment Form and determined that there were no changes necessary. The WAC reviewed the Coastal Assessment Form and no changes were noted. The committee reviewed the 44 LWRP policies and determined that none were applicable. Having an alternate member for the Planning Board or Zoning Board of Appeals could potentially save time for applicants and aligns with practices of other local municipalities. It is for the reasons contained in this memorandum that the WAC issues its recommendation of consistency.
