Campaign Finance Reform Resolution By Councilmember Joan Gronowski

 WHEREAS, there have been numerous successful efforts during the past several decades to affect Campaign Finance Reform in an attempt to modify the influence of money in politics and in political campaigns; and

WHEREAS, these reform measures have included improved disclosure, tougher enforcement, voluntary public financing of elections and lowering the amount of campaign contributions; and,
 WHEREAS, limiting campaign contributions brings many more people into the election process, since candidates are forced to reach out to a broader number of “real voters” and also frees elected officials, candidates and their campaigns from undue influences, lessening the public perception that political favors are often the result of large political contributions

NOW, THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED, that the Code of the City of Yonkers, New York, Chapter 11,
entitled “Campaign Finance Reform”, be amended with the following conditions, to apply for all elected officials and candidates, except where noted otherwise, for any public office in the City of

Yonkers in any primary, general or special election: 

• No
  candidate for Mayor or City Council shall accept or receive a campaign
  contribution from any individual, corporation or unincorporated
  association, of more that Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) per election
  period.
  • Contributions
    include monies, loans, debts incurred, property-in-kind, or things having
    a monetary value incurred or received by a candidate or his agent or
    other person on behalf of the candidate for use in advocating or
    influencing the election of the candidate.

• Candidates
  for office shall be prohibited from receiving any campaign contributions
  from the following:
  • Any
    individual or business entity receiving any manor of government contract
    for services of any kind, has submitted a bid or proposal, or who is
    involved in any business relationship with the City of Yonkers, or who is
    receiving or seeks to receive funds from the city or a grant distributed
    by the city from federal, state or other sources;
  • All
    corporations, developers, contractors, political action committees
    (PACs), labor organizations and other entities which face a substantial
    likelihood of having matters under consideration by the City of Yonkers;
  • Members
    of any mayoral or city council appointed board, commission, or committee;

• Taxpayer-financed
  mailings by incumbents should be banned during the period of six months
  prior to general election and primary, if applicable. Any pertinent
  information required for public consumption can be disseminated by the
  appropriate department head involved, not by the political candidate and
  without the incumbent political candidate’s name being used in the
  notification.

NOW,
THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the acceptance by any candidate or elected
official, of a campaign contribution in excess of $100 shall create a conflict
of interest with regard to that elected official’s vote on any issue or matter
coming before the legislative and or executive branches involving a benefit to
the contributing; and 

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED,
that all challenging candidates for public office who have successfully
met the criteria set forth by the Westchester County Board of Elections and who
are assured placement on a ballot for a primary, general or special election,
shall be allowed to post their issues on the city’s websites, cable access
channel and public access channels, to be afforded the same opportunity
provided to incumbent candidates, who have unlimited access to these taxpayer
funded media, and which amounts to a substantial financial benefit in a
campaign.

Yonkers Police Management Study Resolution By Councilmember Joan Gronowski

       WHEREAS, in 1988,
 the City of Yonkers hired the
independent consulting firm of Murphy, Mayo and Associates, to conduct a
comprehensive study of the Yonkers Police Department to identify its
weaknesses; 

      WHEREAS, in 1989, this
study resulted in a 49-page report, prepared by former New York City Police
Commissioner Patrick V. Murphy and his associate, Louis A. Mayo, former
president of the National Institute of Justice; 

      WHEREAS, the
recommendations of this study included a redefinition of the Police
Department’s goals, the elimination and decentralization of certain special
police units which would put more police officers on regular patrols, and a
reduction of police overtime; 

      WHEREAS, for the past
several years, the Comptroller of the State of New York has cited the City of
Yonkers for its excessive police and fire overtime, calling upon the city to
adjust its deployment of uniformed personnel or identify other measures to
reduce overtime and overtime expenditures; 

NOW,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Yonkers
requests that the City Administration commission a new study by an experienced
and politically impartial police management consultant, to analyze the police
organization with a view toward reducing overtime, and maximizing the workforce.

Yonkers Mayor Phil Amicone Proposes New Affordable Housing Ordinance

Mayor Asserts Measure will Replace 'Punitive' Federal
Court-Imposed Housing Requirement

New proposal Intended to Encourage Development of Middle-Income
Workforce Housing Throughout the City

YONKERS, NY — With a federal court-imposed housing ordinance set to expire at the end of
the year, Mayor Phil Amicone today unveiled a new affordable housing proposal
that will encourage developers to create more middle-income work force housing
throughout the city of Yonkers. 

The new ordinance, sent to the City Council for its
consideration on Monday, is intended to replace what Amicone called the
"harsh, punitive and onerous" affordable housing requirement that was
imposed by a federal judge as part of an historic desegregation lawsuit brought
against the city in 1980. 

"The long-awaited expiration of the existing housing
ordinance presents us not only with an opportunity to finally put an end to a
troublesome chapter in the history of our city, but also with an excellent
opportunity to fix the well documented problems with the current law and
implement a new one that will actually encourage the creation of new affordable
residential units throughout Yonkers, something that our community desperately
needs," Amicone said in a memo sent to the City Council.

Amicone's new affordable housing ordinance proposal does the following:

* Requires a minimum of 10% of newly constructed units in
multifamily residential developments to be set aside as affordable

* Defines "affordable" as 80% of the

Westchester County

area median income (AMI)

for rental units & 120% of the county AMI

for ownership units

* Establishes a "Yonkers Housing Trust Fund" that
will serve as a funding source for the creation of new affordable housing

* Ends "segmentation" of the community by
establishing a citywide policy, i.e. the same affordable housing requirements
for all parts of the city

* Establishes preferences for the city's critical workforce
(city, school district and hospital employees including police officers,
firefighters, teachers, nurses, and other city workers)

Amicone's memo continued, "This new proposal will fix
the problems with the existing ordinance by reducing the onerous restrictions,
adjusting the income requirements to include more middle-income families and
creating more of an incentive for the private sector to develop work force
affordable housing throughout the city." 

The current court-imposed housing ordinance mandates that a
minimum of 20% of any new residential development units constructed in most
parts of the city (everywhere but Southwest Yonkers) be set aside as low-income
affordable housing, a requirement so onerous that it made the cost of
constructing new housing prohibitive to the private sector.  The existing
law also prohibits the construction of any low-income housing in Southwest
Yonkers, thereby segmenting one part of the community away from
the rest of the city.

Most other municipal affordable housing ordinances
throughout the area have minimum affordable unit requirements of around 10%,
well below the 20% currently required in Yonkers. 

Amicone went on to point out that, other than the 600 units
of court-imposed affordable housing that were constructed throughout the city
as part of the federal desegregation order, not a single affordable housing
unit was developed under the existing ordinance since it was first imposed in
early the 1980's.  "Clearly, the court-ordered housing plan just
didn't work," the mayor said.

By contrast, the new proposal would allow developers a great
deal more flexibility in meeting the city's affordable housing needs, creating
more of an incentive to construct work force housing according to Amicone.

Proposed Flexibility
Incentives for Developing New Affordable Housing:

* Allows developers to construct affordable units on-site or
off-site, or a combination of on- & off-site affordable units

* Provides an alternative to constructing affordable units
by allowing developers to contribute a significant portion (one-third, or 33%)
of a project's per-unit development costs to the "Yonkers Housing Trust
Fund"

* The "Yonkers Housing Trust Fund" would then be
used as a funding source for the construction of new affordable housing

* Opens up income requirements to include more middle-income
workers

"We all agree that the creation of more affordable,
middle-income, workforce housing is a priority for our community.
However, we must acknowledge that the existing court-imposed ordinance did
absolutely nothing to encourage the free market creation of new affordable
housing.  This new proposal will fix that and allow more of our hard
working, middle-income families an opportunity to continue to live and work in
our great city," the mayor's memo concluded.

Yonkers Mayor Phil Amicone Names Two Trustees to Yonkers Board of Education

YONKERS, NY — Mayor Phil Amicone today named two new trustee appointments to the Board of
Education: Paresh Patel, an engineer with two children in the public school system, and Nydia Perez, a financial professional with strong ties to the community.

   Both vacancy appointments, Patel will replace former trustee John Flynn whose spot has been
open since May, while Perez will fill the remainder of the term of former
trustee Robert Greco who stepped down last month for professional reasons.

   "I am honored to be able to make such quality appointments to the Board of Trustees. These
are two people I know will serve the people of Yonkers,
especially the 24,000 children in our public school system, with dedication and
a deep a sense of purpose toward continuing the great strides the Yonkers Public
School System is making in becoming a model for public education," said
Mayor Phil Amicone.

   Patel, 43, is a twenty-year veteran of the MTA's New York
City Transit agency where he's worked as an engineer in various capacities and
is currently employed as Superintendent of Planning and Production. He earned
an M.E. from City College  of the City University of New York and is also a certified physician's
assistant.

   Perez, 56, is a former vice president with Chase Manhattan Bank and has worked in the finance
and banking industry for nearly forty years. She is very active in numerous
business and community organizations that include the New York State Hispanic
Chamber of Commerce, Hispanic Women Leaders of Westchester, Audubon Partnership
for Economic Development and Dominican American Chamber of Commerce.

   "I am humbled by the confidence the Mayor has shown in me and assure both he and the people
of Yonkers that I will live up to the expectations placed upon me,"
remarked Patel. "I am eager to begin the task with which I have been
entrusted-making quality public education a dependable and exemplary resource
for this city's many youth."

   Perez added, "Ensuring a quality public education for every child is a fundamental
commitment I know the mayor and the Yonkers Public School System take very
seriously and I am excited to be a part of what's happening with the public
schools."

Yonkers Councilmember McDow Asserts Placing Cellphone Nodes in the Southwest Yonkers is Environmental Discrimination

YONKERS, NY — Environmental discrimination exists when a certain sector of the population, especially vulnerable sectors, assumes a disproportionate burden of the effects of human induced environmental degradation.

This can be in the form of sewerage plants location, sewage diversion, relocating financially challenge
communities to another equally financially challenges community, factory locating and saturating one community with antennas. 

It has been recently discovered that the City of Yonkers
is going to move forward with the plans to allow ExteNet to place over 140
Nodes and a BTS Hub throughout the City of Yonkers.
ExteNet Systems located in Lisle, Il, designs, build and operates network
infrastructure primarily using distributed antenna systems. ExteNet System is
commissioned by a Communication Company (MetroPCS located in Dallas,
TX a cell phone Company) to build and place
these Nodes throughout Yonkers, Mount
Vernon and The Bronx
communities.
 
Throughout the years, the Southwest section of Yonkers has been plagued with
numerous antennas being place on residential and commercial building. It was
only last year when the residents of 50, 80 and 100 Riverdale Avenue made their
concerns known when they learned that a series of antennas were going to be
placed on the roof tops of their building.
 
The Southwest section of Yonkers is very attractive to the communication
industry due to its demographics, coupled with the density and skyline. 
The community understands that perhaps one antenna tower produces very low
frequency that is harmless to the general public. However, the question that
many are asking is "with so many antennas in a concentrated area is the
risk heightens with such an accumulation of antennas in a small radius as seen
in the downtown area of Yonkers"? When the question "what are the
risk associated with these antennas" are raised, the communication company
will argue that theses antennas are safe. How "The Bioinitiative
Report" report contradicts these claims stating that childhood Leukemia
and may set the stage for adult cancer later in life, brain tumors and acoustic
neuromas and Alzheimer's disease are associated with Electromagnetic Fields
(EMF).
 
Council Member McDow was outraged to learn that 60 plus Nodes as they are call
will be placed in the Southwest section of Yonkers. 
"Although over 140 of these units are being place throughout the City of
Yonkers, the South West Section of the City has had enough of their fair share,
said Council Member McDow" 
 
On Thursday, November 6th, Council Member McDow hosted a community Meeting at
the Riverfront Library to bring awareness to the Community and to hear the
concerns of the community. ExteNet along with MetroPCS provided the attendees
with a powerpoint presentation and Q & A followed.
 
The Council will vote on this project on Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 during the regular
scheduled Council Meeting. 
 
For more information or questions, please contact Council Member McDow's Office
at 914-377-6311.

Yonkers Mayor Phil Announces Mid-Year Budget Cuts in Response to Financial Crisis

YONKERS, NY — As the global financial crisis continues, the City of Yonkers will join local governments from around the state and country that are trimming their budgets in the face of shrinking revenues.

Mayor Phil Amicone announced his plan today to cut millions of dollars in expenses from Yonkers' municipal budget including workforce reductions that will close a projected $16 million deficit projected for the current fiscal year.

Joined by Finance Commissioner James LaPerche, Schools
Superintendent Bernard Pierorazio, Deputy Mayor Bill Regan, City Council
President Chuck Lesnick, Councilmember Patricia McDow, and Councilmember Joan
Gronowski, Mayor Amicone made his announcement at a City Hall
news conference today addressing First Quarter financial data for Fiscal Year
2009 (Yonkers' fiscal year runs July 1 through June 30). As part of the budget
presentation, the mayor announced that the city faces a cumulative $16 million
budget gap for FY 2009 and detailed a series of difficult measures to reduce
the deficit.

Non-Personnel Cuts
Totaling $1.6 Million

(All amounts are approximate for Fiscal Year 2009. Exact figures are detailed
in the enclosed reports.)

* 75% across-the-board cut to "professional fees"
totaling $540,000 savings

* Outside consultants

* Equipment maintenance contracts

* Mobile phone contracts

* 40% cut to "special projects" totaling $330,000
savings

* Building demolition

* Special studies

* Training programs

* Special events (parades, festivals, holidays)

* Subsidies to community based organizations &
nonprofits

* 27% cut to various "supplies accounts" totaling
$218,000 savings

* Office supplies

* Equipment supplies

* Data processing

* Hardware

* Audio / visual

* Elimination of tuition / board / travel expenses totaling
$86,000 savings

* Elimination of internship programs totaling $90,000

* Take home vehicle reduction approximately $50,000 savings

* Cell phone reductions & renegotiated contract
resulting in $60,000 annual savings

* Discretionary contract expense account savings $370,000

Additional Deficit Closing Measures

* Freeze on purchasing

* Reopening union contracts (requires union support)

* Renegotiating vendor contracts

* Change or reduction in work hours (requires union support)

* Closing or limiting operating hours of facilities

* Cutting or eliminating nonessential programs

* Non-Personnel Board of Education Cuts Totaling $1.5
Million:

* Elimination of senior administrative positions producing
$250,000 in savings

* Reduce OT/extra pay resulting in $250,000 savings

* Projected fuel oil savings of $500,000

* Reduce lunch fund subsidy of $100,000

* Freeze of purchasing supplies/textbooks resulting in
$400,000 savings

* Elimination of professional conference financed by general
fund – TBD

* 2nd Round of Budget Cuts: Workforce Reductions by Year's
End

Nearly three-quarters of the municipal operating budget is
associated with labor including salaries and fringe benefits. Mayor Amicone
said it will be impossible to close the projected $16 million gap for the
current fiscal year without reducing labor costs substantially. Unfortunately,
he said, this means the city will be forced to make workforce reductions before
the end of the calendar year.

* 200 – 300 layoffs from all city departments

* Elimination of planned police academy class for 2009

* Expansion of the hiring freeze to include all positions
and departments

"When we proposed the budget for this fiscal year, we
presented a conservative spending plan that addressed the needs of Yonkers'
businesses and residents through the continued operation and distribution of
services. However, as financial data from the first quarter has come in, it is
now obvious that our revenue and expense projections must be adjusted in order
to keep the city financially solvent," said Mayor Amicone.

"The gravity of the budget situation requires us to
make hard choices that will not be popular. The truth is that failing to take
these actions would only result in much harder times ahead. Without action, we
risk further damage to our economy, our quality of life and possibly a state
imposed financial control board. Be assured that my administration, including
all of our commissioners and department heads, will work diligently and in
cooperation with the City Council to minimize the impact of the current
financial crisis on our city and its residents."
