OATH OF OFFICE

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

MAYOR CERIELLO: We'll start with the Pledge of Allegiance.

(Whereupon, the Pledge of Allegiance was recited.)

PUBLIC HEARING (BUDGET/LOCAL LAW 2 – 2026/LOCAL LAW 3 -2026)

MAYOR CERIELLO: So we're going to move on to item number three which is the public hearing, the final budget. We have before us the budget that was posted as the draft budget for fiscal year '26/'27. So it starts on June 1st of '26 and it rolls over to May 31st, '27. From the public, any comments on the budget, questions? No. All right. I'll make a motion to move to approve and adopt the final budget for '26/'27 as described.

TRUSTEE MILLER: I second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Aye.

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Aye.

Thank you. It's a great budget, by the way. So this is with regard to Local law 2 concerning swimming pools. We've been studying this matter since it came to our attention that we have a need for more specific reference to hot tub spas and therapeutic spas, whether permanent or moveable. So the change to our law concerning swimming pools is rather modest, but it does lump in with swimming pools which are regulated and have to meet certain building code requirements, hot tub spas and therapeutic spas, which were not so regulated. Do I need to read the local law?

VILLAGE ATTORNEY MORICI: This has also been presented previously and discussed at a prior meeting. It's been published, so you don't necessarily need to as long as the trustees are all on the same page.

MAYOR CERIELLO: As discussed in the prior meeting, because we've been looking at this, the change to the law really is just as I

said to include hot tub spas and therapeutic spas in the definition of swimming pools. And we did one thing here which is a little odd. We decided that a swimming pool was something that has water over 24 inches deep. I didn't think that it was right to include puddles or something small, if they have a kids blow-up pool as a swimming pool that would be subject to regulation. So that's there just for clarification purposes. Does the Board have any questions or comments on the proposed legislation?

TRUSTEE MILLER: No, it was clear. Thank you.

TRUSTEE IM: No.

MAYOR CERIELLO: I'm going to move that we adopt Local Law 2 of 2026 entitled the local law amending Article 7, "General and Supplemental Regulations," Section 200-35 of the Village Code entitled Swimming Pools. Do I have a second?

TRUSTEE IM: Second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Aye.

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Okay, great. Thank you. That's that.

We have proposed a local law, Local Law 3 of 2026 entitled EV Charging Stations. It was published, according to the law by the Board of Trustees, it's been posted on our website. But a little bit of background on 4 this. We do allow residents to have EV charging stations at their home, so this would not regulate any charging station in a residential structure, but just the commercial district. And the genesis of this is what is happening right now behind the Apple store where the owner of that property installed, I think, 12 charging stations and they butt right up to the residential district without any separation or setback. And I understand it's a complicated process and situation there, but I don't want a similar situation to arise in our Village where we have a commercial district with charging stations backing up to the homes and then having people charge their cars late at night.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Right.

TRUSTEE IM: Yes.

MAYOR CERIELLO: So I will read the local law, it's entitled Local Law 3 of the year 2026, a local law to establish a temporary filing -- yes, I'm sorry saying this as if it's the law, it's a moratorium to study it further.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Right, understood.

MAYOR CERIELLO: My apologies for that. A temporary moratorium and filing of the application, acceptance, approval and issuance of permits by the Incorporated Village of Munsey Park for any electric vehicle, EV charging stations not fully contained in a residential structure and battery energy storage systems within the Village. The local law will be known as the Village of Munsey Park Temporary Moratorium Law. It's being adopted pursuant to Municipal Home Rule Law Number 10. Its purpose is to address Village concerns regarding the potential impact of installation of electric vehicle EV charging stations and battery energy storage systems within the Village, including placement of such chargers or systems, the fire risk related to battery technology and the lack of formal zoning regulations for such infrastructure. The Village Board believes a temporary moratorium on EV charging stations and the battery energy storage systems will allow the Village time to consider zoning laws, address placement issues, and evaluate fire safety as well as create guidelines for commercial installations and battery storage. As a moratorium, this local law is a Type II action under the State Environmental Quality Review Act regulations and it's not subject to further environmental law review. This moratorium will be imposed for a period commencing on the effective date of this 13 local law and continuing until June 10th, 2026 and may be extended by the Village Board by resolution for two additional three-month time periods or for such additional periods that are reasonable in scope or duration. And the balance of the local law is just the severability and the effective date. The effective date is immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State. Does the Board have any questions, comments?

TRUSTEE IM: No, thank you.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: No.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Does the audience have any questions? No. I'll move to adopt this local law. May I have a second? It's Local Law 3 of 2026.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: I'll second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Aye. I make a motion to adjourn the public hearing.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Aye. Thank you.

MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF THE PUBLIC HEARING

INCORPORATED VILLAGE OF MUNSEY PARK

MARCH 11, 2026

7:30 P.M.

MAYOR CERIELLO: We're going to start with the Pledge of Allegiance. Let's stand.

(Whereupon, the Pledge of Allegiance was recited.)

MAYOR CERIELLO: Okay, we have our court reporter here. We're adopting Local Law 1 of 2026. This is called the Tax Cap Override. Tax increases by governmental entities in New York

are subject to a cap, I think which is roughly, Paul, is it the inflation rate.

VILLAGE ATTORNEY PEPPER: It's adjusted. It's roughly about two percent. I don't remember exactly what it is this year.

MAYOR CERIELLO: It changes every year. And before we adopt our budget and

determine what the tax load will be, we have to -- if we don't adopt this override, we're

limited to whatever the rate of inflation is or whatever the State sets for municipalities. So

we don't often know what our budget is going to look like. We're going to start that tonight.

But the tax cap override gives the opportunity to impose a tax increase larger than the tax

cap. Now, historically, Munsey Park has not exceeded that. I pulled the information for

the last, like, 13 years and our average increase was 1.3 percent over that time period

whereas, inflation was about three percent for that period. We do it as a matter of precaution. If

something comes up at the last minute and we have to increase our taxes because the only

place we get revenue is from -- well, we get it from a couple of different buckets, but most of

it comes from the residents through taxes. We could be in a budget shortfall. And it's nice

to have. In some villages, it's a must have, but we do it as a matter of precaution.

So, Paul, we had announced that we were going to do this in the January or February

meeting, I forget.

VILLAGE ATTORNEY PEPPER: I believe it was announced last month.

MAYOR CERIELLO: And now we're going to adopt the local law; is that right?

VILLAGE ATTORNEY PEPPER: Yes, that's what we'll be doing now. We can have a motion

to open the public hearing on the proposed local law.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Great. So we'll open up the public meeting by motion.

Who'll second?

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

TRUSTEE LICALZI: Aye.

TRUSTEE CARUSONE: Aye.

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Aye.

So I'm going to move that we adopt Local Law 1 of the year 2026 and I'll read it.

It's pretty short. Be it enacted by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Munsey Park for the Town of North Hempstead, County of Nassau, State of New York: It's the intent of this local law to allow the Incorporated Village of Munsey Park to adopt a budget for the fiscal year

commencing June 1st, 2026 that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the "tax levy

limit" -- that's the cap that I was referring to -- as defined by General Municipal Law

section 3-C. This local law is adopted pursuant to subdivision 5 of General Municipal Law Section 3-C, which expressly authorizes a local government's governing body to override the

property tax cap for the coming fiscal year by the adoption of a local law approved by the

vote of 60 percent of the governing body. The Board of Trustees of the Village of

Munsey Park, County of Nassau, is hereby authorized to adopt a budget for the fiscal

year commencing June 1, 2026 that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the amount

otherwise prescribed in General Municipal Law 3-c. If a court determines that any clause,

sentence, paragraph, subdivision or part of this local law or the application thereof to

any person, firm or corporation, or circumstance is invalid or unconstitutional,

the court's order or judgment shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the remainder of this

local law but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph,

subdivision or part of this local law or in its application to the person, individual, firm or

corporation or other circumstance, directly involved in the controversy in which such

judgment or order shall be rendered. This local law shall take effect

immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State.

Do I have a second on this motion?

TRUSTEE CARUSONE: Second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

DEPUTY MAYOR MILLER: Aye.

TRUSTEE LICALZI: Aye.

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

TRUSTEE CARUSONE: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Aye.

Okay. Thank you. That's it.

LOCAL LAW 3 – 2025 – POOL MORATORIUM

PROCEEDINGS AND VERBATIM DISCUSSIONS OF THE OFFICIAL BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF MUNSEY PARK, HELD ON THE 10TH

DAY OF DECEMBER 2025, at 7:30 p.m., AT 1777 NORTHERN BOULEVARD, MANHASSET, NEW YORK 11030

MAYOR CERIELLO: So we'll start with the Pledge of Allegiance, open the meeting and take us from there.(Whereupon, the Pledge of Allegiance was recited.) I'll move to open the Board of Trustees meeting for the Village of Munsey Park.

TRUSTEE IM: Second.

MAYOR CERIELLO: In favor?

TRUSTEE MILLER: Aye.

TRUSTEE IM: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All right.

This doesn't have to be on the record at this point.

(Whereupon, a discussion was held off the record.)

THE COURT REPORTER: Back on the record?

MAYOR CERIELLO: Back on now,yes. Thank you.

MR. RYAN: So back on the record. I want to discuss Local Law 3 2025 moratorium, just a brief introduction

into this. This is a local law to establish a temporary moratorium on the filing of application, acceptance, approval and/or issuance of permits by the Incorporated Village of Munsey Park for any structure, whether in-ground or otherwise, intended for swimming or recreational bathing that contains water over 12 inches deep at any point of measurement as determined by the code enforcement officer,

including but not limited to in-ground swimming pools, hot tubs, spas, and therapeutic spas for any facility of whatever name serving essentially any of the same purpose for any of the foregoing, whether permanent or moveable. In brief summary, we found some blind spots in the code when it comes to pool and pool-like structures for area calculations and setbacks, and this moratorium will address that And now at any point if anyone has questions.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Mayor?

UNKNOWN AUDIENCE SPEAKER: No.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Okay. Thanks.John, do I need to read the local law?

MR. RYAN: No, I think that's fine how we read it.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Okay. Have you guys had a chance to review the law?

TRUSTEE MILLER: Yes.

TRUSTEE IM: Yes.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Any questions or changes or suggestions?

TRUSTEE IM: No.

MAYOR CERIELLO: So then I'll move to adopt Local Law 3 of 2025.

MR. RYAN: Yes.

MAYOR CERIELLO: Patty, you want to second?

TRUSTEE MILLER: I second,absolutely.

MAYOR CERIELLO: All in favor?

ALL MEMBERS: Aye.

MAYOR CERIELLO: That's it.

(Whereupon, a discussion was held off the record.)

MAYOR CERIELLO: Let's go back on the record, I rather read it in so I'm gonna go fast knowing that the non-Brooklyn version of it is here.Okay.So be it enacted by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Munsey Park for the County of Nassau, City of Manhasset, Town of North Hempstead, village of Incorporated Village of Munsey Park. Be it enacted by the Incorporated Village of Munsey Park Board of Trustees as follows: Section 1, Title and Authority: This local law shall be known as the Village of Munsey Park Temporary Pool Application Moratorium Law. It is adopted pursuant to Municipal Home Rule Law, Section 10. Section 2, Purpose: The Village Board has significant concerns

regarding the potential impacts of the installation of various structures intended for swimming or recreational bathing within the village. The Village Board believes that a temporary moratorium on structures intended for swimming or recreational bathing is necessary in order to allow the Village Board time to study and review the potential impacts of such structures intended for swimming or recreational bathing on the character of the Village, and if appropriate, to revise the village's zoning code with regard to structures intended for swimming or recreational bathing. As a moratorium, this Local Law is a Type II Action under the State Environmental Quality Review Act

(SEQRA) regulations and is not subject to further environmental review. Section 3, Duration of Moratorium: This moratorium shall be imposed for a period commencing on the effective date of this Local Law and continuing March 11th, 2026, and may be extended by Village Board by resolutions for two additional three-month time periods or for such additional periods that are reasonable in scope and duration. Section -- this is actually mis-numbered, John, it says Section 3. So Section 4, Severability: If a court determines that any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, or part of this local law of the application thereof to any person, firm or corporation or circumstances is invalid or unconstitutional, the court's order or judgement shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the remainder of this local law, but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision or part of this local law or in its application to the person, individual, firm or corporation or circumstances, directly involved in the controversy in which such judgement or ordered shall be rendered. Section 5, Effective Date: This local law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State.

Off the record. (Time Noted: 7:39 p.m.)

MAYOR’S REPORT

Mayor Ceriello opened a discussion with residents in attendance to discuss plans for Waldmann Park. He reminded residents of the many functions of Waldmann including its use as an outdoor theater for MPWC’s movie night, for sledding in the winter, a large lawn for various activities and so many other purposes all critical to the enjoyment of our community. He assured residents that what makes the park beautiful and striking would not change.

The Mayor explained that over the last few years, the Village has renovated the small parks that grace main entrances (including the Park Avenue hill), traffic intersections and the cul-de-sacs in the Village. However, the other two largest parks, Waldmann Memorial Park and Copley Pond Park, have received only minimal attention as funds allowed. The Village installed drywells in Waldmann to alleviate the flooding that often resulted in large sections of the park being submerged for extended periods. Similarly, the Village is in the process of adding drywells to Copley to avoid the periodic overflow from the pond that impacts the rear yards of residents on Whistler Road.

We were very fortunate to be approved for a $110,000 grant which would be used to enhance the enjoyment of the park by all residents while improving and maintaining its simplistic beauty. The Mayor explained that contrary to what residents had been told, he didn’t foresee any major changes to the look, use or character of either park and expect the footprint of any work we do to be subtle and inconspicuous. Many residents at the meeting asked to be involved in the planning of these improvements and are welcomed to such involvement. Mayor Ceriello asked anyone interested to call Village Hall. Regardless of whether you are involved in the day-to-day of this process, all plans and each step of the process will be fully disclosed to residents before any work occurs (which will not be until 2026 at the earliest). Following a robust but friendly discussion, the discussion ended.

Questions/Comments were received from the following:

NEW BUSINESS

LEE

Mr. Sean Lee, 499 Hunt Lane, appealed to the Board for the installation of speed bumps to the section of Hunt Lane which is across from the Munsey Park School field. The current speed limit is 15 miles per hour and Mr. Lee said many times the cars are driving 30/40 mph. Mayor Ceriello agreed that speeding is an ongoing issue throughout the Village specifically Park Avenue and Manhasset Woods Road. Several years ago, the Village hired an engineering firm to conduct a traffic study which was required for the Village to lower the State speed limit from 30 mph to 25 mph. The study also included traffic mitigations techniques, some of which included roundabouts, speed bumps and an increase in traffic enforcement. The Board acknowledged that removable speed bumps can be affective tool, however, there are issues to consider for example, the fire department feels it slows down response time, there is an associated noise when cars go over the speed bump, proper signage, safety lighting, removal of bumps and snowplows. The Mayor and BOT will continue the discussion of speed within the Village as it is an on-going issue. Mr. Lee will continue discussions with his neighbors on Hunt Lane and research removable speed bumps and associated costs.

ELECTION

Petitions were submitted to the village clerk for Patty Miller and Bruno Carusone for the two vacant seats of Trustees and Mayor Ceriello for the open seat of Mayor. The uncontested election will take place at Village Hall on March 18, 2025, from Noon to 9 PM.

PROPOSE LOCAL LAW – 2 – 2025 - Tax Cap

Mayor Ceriello read the proposal of a local law to allow the Incorporated Village of Munsey Park to adopt a budget for the fiscal year commencing June 1, 2025, that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the “tax levy limit” as defined by General Municipal Law §3-c, which expressly authorizes a local government’s governing body to override the property tax cap for the coming fiscal year by the adoption of a local law approved by a vote of sixty percent (60%) of said governing body.

There will be a Public Hearing and Vote on Proposed Law, known as proposed Local Law 2-2025, at the next regularly scheduled Meeting of the Board of Trustees on March 19, 2025.

Mayor Ceriello explained that the Tax Cap is tied to the rate of inflation so if the Village’s expenses exceed the levy due to inflation, then we can pierce that cap. The Mayor highlighted that with a modest increase in 2021 the tax levy for the Village remained flat for five years and again with a modest increase last year. He acknowledged the Board has done a tremendous job controlling expenses while continuing to take on major projects throughout the Village.

RESOLUTION – GREAT NECK/NORTH SHORE CABLE COMMISSION

The Mayor provided some background and explained that the Village allows cable companies to use our land in the Right of Way (ROW) to provide service and we, in turn, impose a fee for the use of that land. Years ago, each village negotiated a fee separately with every cable company which resulted in unequal negotiating power. Thus, the North Shore Villages united as the Great Neck/North Shore Cable Commission and renegotiated the Cable Franchise Agreement. This agreement expired several years ago. Currently, the fee is 4% of total gross revenue with 1% going to North Shore TV and the remaining 3% going to the village. The Commission is in the final stages of the renewal agreement with Verizon which will be presented and reviewed at a soon to be scheduled public hearing.

Trustee Im made a motion to adopt the following resolution, seconded by Trustee LiCalzi, and carried as follows:

Mayor Ceriello AYE

Deputy Mayor D’Angelo AYE

Trustee LiCalzi AYE

Trustee Im AYE

Trustee Williams AYE

Resolved, that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Munsey Park hereby authorizes a quorum of its Trustees to attend a public hearing with respect to the renewal of the cable franchise of Verizon New York, Inc. (“Verizon”); and Resolved, that the Village shall work cooperatively with the Great Neck/North Shore Cable Commission (the “Commission”) and the other Villages comprising the Commission to schedule a convenient date, time and place to hold said public hearing; and Resolved, that once the date, time and place for the public hearing is established, the Board of Trustees hereby ratifies and adopts the action of the Commission and/or the Village in publishing proper notice of said public hearing in the Village’s official newspaper; and

TREE CITY PROCLAMATION

Tree City USA is a national program that recognizes communities for their efforts to manage and improve their public trees. The Village must re-qualify annually to maintain their Tree City USA designation. In continuing our qualification, we must meet four standards to be designated as a Tree City USA community: maintain a tree board or department, have a community tree ordinance, spend a minimum on urban forestry and celebrate Arbor Day. The Village believes that this annual recognition shows residents that trees, conservation, and the environment are important to our community. The Village will plant several specimen trees during the 2024 /2025 planting season (which runs from the first frost in Autumn, 2024 through April 2025). The first such tree – a flowering dogwood tree, was planted on Dec. 6 along Hunt Lane’s walking path.

Mayor Ceriello read the following Proclamation and moved to adopt December 6, as Arbor Day in the Village of Munsey Park, seconded by Trustee LiCalzi and approved by all.

WHEREAS, in 1872, J. Sterling Morton proposed to the Nebraska Board of

Agriculture that a special day be set aside for the planting of trees, and

WHEREAS, this holiday, called Arbor Day, was first observed with the

planting of more than a million trees in Nebraska, and.

WHEREAS, Arbor Day is now observed throughout the nation and the world,

and

WHEREAS, trees can reduce the erosion of our precious topsoil by wind

and water, cut heating and cooling costs, moderate the temperature, clean

the air, produce life-giving oxygen, and provide habitat for wildlife, and

WHEREAS, trees are a renewable resource giving us paper, wood for our

homes, fuel for our fires and countless other wood products, and

WHEREAS, trees in our Village increase property values, enhance the

economic vitality of business areas and beautify our community, and

WHEREAS, trees, wherever they are planted, are a source of joy and

emotional renewal.

PROCLAIMED, that the 6th of December 2024, will be declared Arbor Day

throughout the Village of Munsey Park.

Signed this 6th Day of December 2024

MAYOR’S REPORT

The mayor reported that the 2024 Road Repair Project is complete. National Grid has informed the village of a new gas main project which will impact Hunt Lane from Manhasset Woods Road to Abbey Road. The Mayor and our Village Engineer, Jim Antonelli, will walk the project with National Grid on Friday, December 13th.

· Mayor suggested revision of the landscape plan as the proposed arborvitae hedge in the front yard (two front yards for a corner lot) will not be approved since the village code prohibits perimeter hedges of one plant species.

· The tree removal application will be approved, however, Mayor Ceriello asked that the updated landscape plan indicate a new replacement tree on the right of way (no specific species).

· The proposed Nicolock paving stone will also not be approved by the BAC and should be replaced with a natural stone.

Cail – 748 Hunt Lane - Fence application backyard/pool

After a long discussion, the homeowner/contractor and the Mayor decided it was best to meet with Anthony DiProperzio, Village Code Enforcement Officer.

*Homeowner has since withdrawn the original application and submitted an amended application to “repair the existing fence” to bring it to code.
