PRELIMINARY PRESENTATION – Family YMCA at Tarrytown – 50 Ichabod Lane
Nicole Bernardone, Childcare Director for the Family YMCA, explained that the YMCA is out growing their childcare space and are in discussions with the Tarrytown Union Free School District to lease the Tappan Hill School, located at 50 Ichabod Lane. Presently the Y has several childcare locations through the Village and this new space will allow them all to come together into one space.
Mr. Blau asked how much of the school will they be using. Ms. Bernardone said the entire school, but not the trailers at this time. Perhaps they will use the trailers in the future.
Mr. Aukland asked if they were going to make any structural changes to the building. Ms. Bernardone said no, only interior cosmetic changes.
Mr. Aukland asked about the traffic and if there will be school buses used. Ms. Bernardone said there will be no school buses only cars dropping off the children. Ms. Bernardone said presently they service 54 families and the usual drop-off times are approximately 20-30 children at 8:00 a.m. and another 20-30 at 9:00 a.m. It is possible that they can grow to 135 families. Mr. Birgy asked if that is their goal. Ms. Bernardone said “yes.”
Mr. Blau suggest that they do a comparison of traffic when it was a school and what it will be as a daycare; i.e., number of cars and children and the number of buses and children when it was a school as opposed to the number of cars and children as a daycare.
Mr. Tedesco motioned to declare the Board’s intent to be lead agency, seconded by Mr. Aukland, all in favor. Motion carried.
Mr. Tedesco motioned to set an escrow in the amount of $2,500, seconded by Mr. Aukland, all in favor. Motion carried.
