FLOOD MEETING WITH OUR CONGRESSWOMAN AND ARMY CORP OF ENGINEERS, DEC

Elmsford Mayor Robert Williams, Greenburgh Public Works Commissioner Victor Carosi, Town Engineer Mike Lepre and I attended a very constructive meeting sponsored by Congresswoman Nita Lowey on Monday afternoon. Representatives of the US Army Corp of Engineers and NYS DEC met with local officials and discussed initiatives that could be taken to address the flooding problems around the county. Specifically, we asked the federal and state officials if we could initiate smaller, less expensive action steps to reduce flooding on the Saw Mill River. Since the 1960s the US Army Corp has been studying the Saw Mill River. We're sick of the studies and want to take some action-- that could at least help reduce flooding. Everytime there is a big storm 9A in Elmsford looks like a lake-- businesses and some homes have suffered significant damages AFTER each strom.
