Proposed Residential Development
425 S Riverside Ave, Croton-on-Hudson, NY
This memorandum is provided in support of a proposed 3 story residential development (“the Project”) located at
425 S Riverside Ave in the Village of Croton-on-Hudson, NY (tax parcel 079.13-002-091.00, “the Site”). The Site is
located within the Village of Croton-on-Hudson in the Town of Cortlandt in Westchester County, NY. Access to the
Project Site will be provided via S Riverside Ave.
The purpose of this analysis is to evaluate the potential fiscal impacts of the proposed residential development,
consisting of 49 multifamily rental units (25 one-bedroom units and 24 two-bedroom units) and 79 parking spaces.
44 of the new units will be available for rent at market rate, and 10% (5 units) will be affordable (3 one-bedroom
and 2 two-bedroom units).
The Project is in the site plan approval process, and this analysis is based on the most current information provided
by the Applicant including:
•
Proposed Architectural Plans (Jan. 6, 2026, DeMasi Architects, PC)
•
Village of Croton-on-Hudson Tax Bill for the site (01/06/2026)
Potential fiscal and community impacts to the Village of Croton-on-Hudson Police, Fire, EMS, Recreation, and Solid
Waste/Recycling are presented below. The impact to the Croton-Harmon Union Free School District (CHUFSD)
including estimates of school age children is addressed in a separate memorandum, Public Schools Impact
Memorandum (dated 2/27/25, revised 5/22/2026 and revised 7/13/2026). Fiscal impacts to CHUFSD are
summarized herein.
The following research explores potential tax implications of the Project using the most recently available Village
budgets and population data from the US Census Bureau (2024). Where available, 2024 data sources were utilized
throughout this analysis to maintain consistency.

Police
The site is serviced by the Croton-on-Hudson Police Department, which is located at the corner of North Street and
Pleasant Ridge Road. According to the Village of Croton-on-Hudson Police Department Webpage (accessed July
2026), the department includes 22 full time officers, 1 full time parking enforcement officer, 1 full time dispatcher, 5
part time parking enforcement officers, 2 part time park rangers, and 5 part time crossing guards.
According to the Development Impact Assessment Handbook18, police service for every 1,000 people requires 2
staff members, 0.6 vehicles, and 200 sf of facility space. Using this source, it is estimated that the proposed increase
of 92 people would require an incremental increase of 0.184 staff members, 0.0552 vehicles, and 18.4 sf of facility
space. In 2024, the Police Department budget was $3,703,189 and the Auxiliary Police Services Budget was
$262,257. These two police budget categories totaled $3,971,446, representing approximately 17.89% of the total
2024 Village budget. The site currently generates approximately $2,535.34 in taxes to the Police Department
annually. Projected cost to the Police district is $44,546.82 (see Table 4: Cost to Village Taxing Districts) as a result
of the Proposed Action. The proposed development is expected to have a higher assessed value than the existing
use and will generate more taxes than the existing use. The proposed increase in population will not result in a
need for additional staff, vehicles, or facility space, therefore, no significant adverse impact to the Police Department
is anticipated.
Fire Protection
Per Westchester County GIS Municipal Tax parcel Viewer, the Site is serviced by Croton Fire Department.
According to the Croton-on-Hudson Fire Department website (accessed July 2026), the Croton Fire Department
contains 3 stations: Grand Street Firehouse, Washington Engine Firehouse, and the Harmon Firehouse. The
Harmon Firehouse is the closest to the Site; it is located approximately 0.25 miles northwest of the Site at 30 Wayne
St. The Harmon Firehouse is the newest and largest station of the Croton Fire Department and is home to the
Harmon Engine Co. No. 3 (Engine 120) and Croton Fire Patrol No. 1 (Rescue 18/Marine 52). Members of Croton
Fire Patrol Co. No.1 are 100% volunteers.
Table 5: Anticipated Increase in Fire Department Call Volume provides an estimate of the potential increase in fire
department calls associated with the Proposed Action. The average annual call volume was calculated using
historical incident data from the Croton-on-Hudson Fire Department’s online incident logs19. Incident records from
2015 through 2025 were reviewed, and the average number of calls reported during this 11-year period was used
to establish the existing annual call volume baseline.

According to the Development Impact Assessment Handbook18, fire service for every 1,000 people requires 1.65
staff members, 0.2 vehicles, and 250 sf of facility space. The proposed increase of 92 people will require 0.05576
staff members, 0.0184 vehicles, and 23 sf facility of space. In 2024, the Croton-on-Hudson Fire District had a budget
of $738,985 (approximately 3.33% of the total 2024 Village budget). The site currently generates approximately
$471.76 in taxes to the Fire Department annually. Projected cost to the Fire district is $8,289.03 (see Table 4: Cost
to Village Taxing Districts). The proposed development is expected to have a higher assessed value than the
existing use, and will generate more taxes than the existing use. The proposed increase in population will not result
in a need for additional staff, vehicles, or facility space, therefore, no significant adverse impact to the fire district is
anticipated.
Emergency Medical Services
The site is serviced by Croton-on-Hudson Emergency Medical Services (EMS). The Harmon Firehouse currently
functions as the quarters for both Croton EMS and its two ambulances. The Harmon Firehouse is located
approximately 0.25 miles northwest of the Site at 30 Wayne St. Croton-on-Hudson EMS serves the Village of
Croton-on-Hudson, as well as Mt. Airy, and Quaker Bridge Fire Protection Districts in the Town of Cortlandt.
Table 6: Anticipated Increase in EMS Call Volume provides an estimate of the potential increase in EMS calls
associated with the Proposed Action. The average annual call volume was calculated using historical incident data
from the Croton-on-Hudson EMS Department’s online incident logs20. Incident records from 2015 through 2025
were reviewed, and the average number of calls reported during this 11-year period was used to establish the
existing annual call volume baseline.

In 2024, EMS services had a budget of $654,186 (approximately 2.95% of the total 2024 Village budget). The site
currently generates approximately $417.76 in taxes to the EMS District annually. Projected cost to the EMS district
is $7,337.86 (see Table 4: Cost to Village Taxing Districts). The proposed development is expected to have a higher
assessed value than the existing use, and will generate more taxes than the existing use. The proposed increase

in population is not likely to result in a need for additional staff, vehicles, or facility space, therefore, no significant
adverse impact to the EMS district is anticipated.
Parks and Recreational Facilities
There are several parks owned and maintained by Croton-on-Hudson, including Croton Landing Park, Black Rock
Park, Echo Canoe Launch, and Duck Pond Park. The Village is also home to a number of properties conserved as
preserves or open space including Jane E. Lytle Memorial Arboretum (22 acres) and Kaplan’s Pond (8.5 acres).
In 2024, budget categories in this department included: Recreation Administration ($220,265), Parks ($195,470),
Playground & Recreation Center ($92,000), and Special Recreation Facilities ($97,701). Combined, these four
budget categories total $605,436, representing approximately 2.73% of the total 2024 Village budget. The site
currently generates approximately $386.51 in Recreation and Parks/Playgrounds taxes annually. Projected cost to
the Parks and Recreational Facilities is $6,791.04 (see Table 4: Cost to Village Taxing Districts). The proposed
development is expected to have a higher assessed value than the existing use, and will generate more taxes than
the existing use. The proposed increase in population is not likely to result in a need for additional parks and
recreation staff, equipment, or facilities, therefore, no significant adverse impact to Parks and Recreational Facilities
are anticipated.
Solid Waste and Recycling
The Village of Croton-on-Hudson Public Works Department handles sanitation and recycling for the entire
municipality. In 2024, the Recycling Program budget was $174,670 and the Refuse Collection and Disposal budget
was $141,850. Combined, these two budget categories total $316,520, representing approximately 1.43% of the
total 2024 Village budget. The site currently generates approximately $9202.06 in Sanitation taxes annually.
According to the New York State Solid Waste Management21 plan, Westchester County generates 3.77 pounds per
person per day of municipal solid waste. The increase in population of 92 people from development would generate
an additional 347 pounds per day of municipal solid waste. Projected cost to the Solid Waste and Recycling district
is $3,550.33 (see Table 4: Cost to Village Taxing Districts). The proposed development is expected to have a higher
assessed value than the existing use and will generate more taxes than the existing use. The proposed increase in
population is not likely to result in a need for additional staff, vehicles, or facility space, therefore, no significant
adverse impact to Solid Waste and Recycling are anticipated.
Per Capita Cost
The existing per capita cost was calculated by dividing the applicable tax levy or expenditure for each taxing
jurisdiction by the corresponding population served. The analysis includes the Village of Croton-on-Hudson, Town
of Cortlandt, Westchester County, and Croton-Harmon School District. The cost to educate per pupil was 26,005
per the Croton-Harmon Union Free School District Budget analysis in the Public Schools Impact Memorandum
(dated 2/27/25, revised 5/22/2026 and revised 7/13/2026). The resulting existing per capita costs are summarized
in Table 7: Existing Per Capita Cost below.

The projected per capita cost associated with the Proposed Action was calculated based on the anticipated
population increase resulting from the development. As presented in Table 3: Estimated Population Generation, the
Proposed Action is projected to generate approximately 92 additional residents. In accordance with the Public
Schools Impact Memorandum (dated 2/27/25, revised 5/22/2026 and revised 7/13/2026), the Proposed Action is
anticipated to generate up to 11 school-aged children. To provide a conservative estimate of school-related costs,
the analysis assumes the generation of 11 school-aged children. The projected increase in per capita costs
associated with the Proposed Action is summarized Table 8: Per Capita Cost - Population Increase below.

The assessed value of the Proposed Action will be determined by the Village of Croton-on-Hudson Assessor
following completion of construction and therefore is not available at this time. The completed project is expected
to have a significantly higher assessed value than the property's current assessment. The post-construction market
value of the Proposed Action is estimated at approximately $28,500,000. The estimated assessed value per unit is

$438,775.51. The Assessed Value Per Unit was estimated by dividing the conservative post construction assessed
value of the property by the total number of units ($28,500,000/49 units = $438,775.51/unit). The Tax Revenue Per
Unit is calculated by multiplying the Assessed Value Per Unit by the Equalization Rate and dividing by 100. Dividing
by 100 converts the equalization rate from a percentage to a decimal number.

SCHOOL DISTRICT IMPACT
The potential fiscal impact of the Proposed Action on the Croton-Harmon School District was evaluated based on
existing school district expenditures, anticipated changes in school tax revenue (using updated estimated assessed
value), and projected enrollment generation (as referenced in the Public Schools Impact Memorandum dated
2/27/25, revised 5/22/2026 and revised 7/13/2026). The existing per capita cost was calculated using the School
District’s annual expenditure divided by total enrollment. This per student cost was then applied to the estimated
increase in school-aged children associated with the Proposed Action to estimate the potential cost of additional
enrollment.
The values summarized in Table 11: Summary of Anticipated School District Fiscal Impacts are based on the
previously presented Table 7: Existing Per Capita Cost, Table 8: Per Capita Cost - Population Increase, and
Table 10: Anticipated Net Increase in Tax Revenue.

Estimated Fiscal Difference

Based on the per capita cost methodology, the Proposed Action is anticipated to generate approximately
$410,154.79 in additional annual school tax revenue while resulting in an estimated cost of approximately
$286,055.00 associated with the projected increase of up to 11 school-aged children. The resulting fiscal difference
of approximately $154,847.75 is a positive annual benefit to the school district.
WATER AND SEWER SERVICE
The Proposed Action will be served by the Village's public water distribution and sanitary sewer systems. The
project is expected to generate revenue for the Village through water and sewer user charges. Based on the
estimated average water demand of 4,828 gallons per day and the estimated average sewer generation of 3,958
gallons per day, annual water and sewer user fee revenue is estimated to be approximately $27,821.33 and
$3,816.57, respectively. The estimated annual utility revenue is summarized below.

Water
The Proposed Action is estimated to require approximately 4,828 gallons per day (GPD) of water, which is
equivalent to 644.76 cubic feet per day (1 cubic foot = 7.48 gallons). The 2024 Village of Croton-on-Hudson Master
Fee Schedule31 bills water usage in 100 cubic foot units on a quarterly basis. Accordingly, the projected water
demand is equivalent to 6.45 units per day, or approximately 588.35 units per quarter (6.45 units/day × 91.25
days/quarter). Based on the 2024 Village of Croton-on-Hudson Master Fee Schedule31, this level of water usage
falls within Tier 3, which is billed at $11.8218 per 100 cubic foot units. The estimated daily water charge was
calculated by multiplying the projected daily water usage (6.45 units/day) by the applicable rate, resulting in an
estimated charge of $76.22 per day. Multiplying the daily charge by 365 days yields an estimated annual water user
fee revenue of $27,821.33.
Sewer
The Proposed Action is estimated to generate approximately 3,958 gallons per day (GPD) of wastewater, which is
equivalent to 528.58 cubic feet per day (CFD) (1 cubic foot = 7.48 gallons). The 2024 Village of Croton-on-Hudson
Master Fee Schedule31 bills sewer usage in 100-cubic-foot units. Accordingly, the projected wastewater generation
is equivalent to 5.29 units per day. Based on the 2024 Village of Croton-on-Hudson Master Fee Schedule, this level
of sewer usage falls within Tier 2, which is billed at $1.9782 per 100-cubic-foot unit. The estimated daily sewer
charge was calculated by multiplying the projected wastewater generation (5.29 units per day) by the applicable
rate, resulting in an estimated charge of $10.46 per day. Multiplying the daily charge by 365 days yields an estimated
annual sewer user fee revenue of $3,816.57.
CONCLUSIONS
The Project is expected to generate significantly more taxes due to the increased assessed value of the proposed
development. This fiscal analysis was based on the most recent estimated post-construction market value of
$28,500,000. The final assessed value of the property will be formally determined by the Tax Assessor upon
construction completion. The proposed residential development is not likely to have significant adverse fiscal
impacts the Village of Croton-on-Hudson, the Croton-Harmon School District, the Town of Cortlandt, or Westchester
County.
