8/4/2026 Board of Trustees, I am writing to request a permit for 6 egg-laying chickens in my backyard at 281 Olean St in the village of East Aurora. Chickens would occupy a chicken coop and fenced-in run at the back of my property and would be raised for the purpose of producing fresh eggs. My property extends back roughly 300 feet back from Olean St., and the hens would be located towards the back edge of my property. This area is not visible from the road. We would like to have chickens for a few reasons: • Fresh, high-quality eggs for our family of four • A fun and educational learning experience for our children • Raising chickens can be a source of entertainment and a fulfilling activity for our family, friends, and guests After reviewing the village code and consulting with the village office, I was provided with a list of properties that would need to sign off on our request in order to receive a permit without a public hearing. One or more of the properties on that list is currently unoccupied, including the abutting property at 297 Olean St. As such, I am requesting a public hearing for my request. I did obtain signatures from the owners of the two occupied houses within 225 feet of the proposed location, who are both in support. Respectfully, The Aures Family (Ryan, Virginia, Kara (14), and Cole (11))

The concerns are that she believes 206 Main Street should be considered a high-intensity use and entertainment use, not just a restaurant. She believes the noise and parking situation are a big problem. • Alaina Smith- 54 Hamlin- She has concerns about pedestrians walking in the area of 206 Main Street. When she called the state, they said that the Village had to request pedestrian crossing devices in that area. She also would not like a concert venue there either. • Jim Suttell- 69 Hamlin- He noted that 206 Main Street has become a problem and is worried it will get worse. He thanked the Village DPW, the EAPD, and the Village support at the Toytown Car Show; without the Village's cooperation, it would not happen. • Mary Ann Colopy- HPC Chairwoman- She reviewed the current status of the National Historic District on Main Street and said that the vote was being held on Wednesday. The district goes from Olean Street up to Riley.

• Gary Wiest- 170 West Fillmore- He is concerned about the mess left over after the events that have been held at 206 Main Street and the noise if the garage doors are opened. • Ryan Kanowski- 206 Main Owner- He said that his intentions are to make 206 Main Street better and more beautiful. He said that they are not trying to keep Misters alive and said that the doors will be closed when they have music. They want to do bridal showers, fundraisers, and community events. Mayor Wochensky spoke about the process and hearing the public’s comments. He spoke about road crossing concerns, said that was part of the Blue Zone plan, and talked about a Z crossing. Department Head and Trustee Reports General Foreman- He said that they are working on storm drainage and working on a storm line on Girard that is starting to collapse. The DPW spread about 80 yards of certified cushion compost a couple of weeks back, and it turned out really nice. The stop signs were installed, and he thanked Trustee Lazickas for letting them put a giant sign in his front yard for two weeks. He has been working on our tree inventory for that grant. The price for salt this year rose about 40%, and it is going to be a tough year for that. He also said that gasoline in the past two months rose 40 cents, and their last bill was almost $1,200 more. Police Chief- He spoke about Patrol Officer Foster being promoted to detective and being the first woman in East Aurora to be a police detective. She is great with kids and will also be a juvenile detective as well. He said that one of the new officers has been trained in car seat safety and installation; there is an event at the East Aurora Fire Department from 9 a.m.- 12 p.m. for car seat safety checks. The Police Department is planning for the Borderlands Festival that is coming up and working with other agencies to be prepared. He said that he has been working with Robyn Drake over the past month and has successfully filed for a grant for $125,000 for new body cameras and car cameras. The police department has been working with the Pedestrian Bike Board to make a trick-or-treating plan in the Village. He said that the HPC is looking into public government buildings and historic preservation grants for the police station building. Code Enforcement- None Village Administrator- She said that she is still getting used to everything and thanked Maureen for teaching her the process of things. Clerk- Treasurer- She said that she has been training the new Village Administrator. Trustee Lazickas- none Trustee Cameron- She asked if the HPC has had any updates on the Stonegate Mansion. Chairwoman Colopy said that Lisa, whom she was dealing with over at Stonegate, said that there has been no communication from the board of directors on the future of the mansion and is very frustrated. She said that if they try to landmark it again, people will come out against it like last time. Chairwoman Colopy said that the former Village Attorney never got a determination on having 87 people own that building and that they are not any further along or have any more information than they did 6 months ago. Trustee Cameron said that she is concerned over the growing use of AI for public-facing communication. Trustee Root- She said that she gave out the awards at the car show and that it was wonderful to be a part of the event. She went with Village Administrator Tufte to meet small business owners and get input on the community. Trustee Viger- She asked if the police department can do more monitoring of the crosswalks because of kids going back to school. Police Chief Welch spoke about social media education. Trustee Kamp- He spoke about the bait and shoot program and gave out the email for residents to contact, [email protected]. Trustee Root asked about automatic responses to emails. Trustee Bojanowski- none Mayor Wochensky- He said that he sent out the structure of the comprehensive plan and is working on the RFP. It will be sent out to the Village Board and the Planning Board for feedback. He said that the Taste of EA is taking place this weekend. ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by Trustee Kamp to adjourn the meeting at 8:36 pm, seconded by Trustee Bojanowski and unanimously carried.

VILLAGE OF EAST AURORA COMMEMORATIVE MEMORIAL TREE AND BENCH PROGRAM PROPOSED POLICY — DRAFT FOR ATTORNEY AND CLERK REVIEW Proposed Adoption: [DATE] Approved By: Village Board of Trustees Effective Date: [DATE] 1. PURPOSE AND INTENT The Village of East Aurora recognizes that individuals, organizations, events and contributions may have played a meaningful role in the civic, cultural, historical, social or community life of the Village and that, in appropriate circumstances, a public memorial may provide a lasting and meaningful way to recognize such contributions. The purpose of this policy is to establish a consistent, equitable and transparent process by which the Village may consider requests for commemorative memorial trees and benches on Village-owned property or within Village rights-of-way. The Village intends this program to provide for public commemoration of persons, organizations, events and contributions having a substantial and meaningful connection to the Village, rather than to establish a program through which private individuals may purchase or reserve memorial space on public property. The Village Board recognizes that a meaningful connection to the Village is not necessarily limited to legal residency. A person who did not reside in the Village may, under appropriate circumstances, have had a substantial and longstanding presence in, relationship with, or contribution to the Village community. At the same time, a person's general appreciation of the Village, occasional visitation, or personal preference for the Village, without more, shall not ordinarily constitute a sufficient basis for a commemorative memorial on Village property. 2. POLICY AUTHORITY This policy shall govern the Village's consideration of requests for commemorative memorial trees and benches and shall be administered consistently with the East Aurora Village Code, including Chapter 240, Trees, and any other applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation.

Page 102

Nothing in this policy shall be interpreted to diminish or alter the existing responsibilities of the Department of Public Works, the Village Tree Board, the Village Board of Trustees, or any other Village board, department or official under the Village Code. To the extent that this policy conflicts with applicable law or the Village Code, the applicable law or Village Code shall control. 3. DEFINITIONS For purposes of this policy: A. Applicant The person, family member, organization, business, civic group or other entity submitting a request for a commemorative memorial. B. Commemorative Memorial A memorial tree, memorial bench, or associated commemorative plaque or marker approved pursuant to this policy. C. Memorial Tree A tree planted on Village-owned property or within a Village right-of-way in recognition or memory of an eligible person, organization, event or contribution. D. Memorial Bench A bench installed on Village-owned property in recognition or memory of an eligible person, organization, event or contribution. E. Eligible Subject A deceased person, organization, event or contribution determined by the Village Board to satisfy the eligibility standards established by this policy. F. Village The Village of East Aurora, New York, acting through its Village Board, departments, boards, officers and employees, as applicable. 4. GENERAL ELIGIBILITY

Page 103

A request for a commemorative memorial shall demonstrate that the proposed subject has a substantial and meaningful connection to the Village of East Aurora or has made a meaningful contribution to the life of the Village or its residents. The following factors may be considered, individually or in combination: 1. Whether the person was a current or former resident of the Village; 2. Whether the person owned or operated a business or organization within the Village; 3. Whether the person provided significant civic, charitable, cultural, educational, professional, volunteer, or public service to the Village; 4. Whether the person had substantial involvement with Village institutions, organizations, schools, civic groups, businesses or public service organizations; 5. Whether the person had a longstanding and recognizable presence in the Village community; 6. Whether the person's activities, work, service, or daily presence had a meaningful effect on the Village or its residents; 7. Whether the person made an extraordinary or otherwise significant contribution to the Village; 8. Whether the proposed memorial would recognize an event or contribution of particular historical, civic, cultural, or community significance to the Village; 9. The length and nature of the person's connection to the Village; and 10. Any other facts that reasonably demonstrate a substantial and meaningful connection between the proposed subject and the Village. A. Residency Not Required Residence within the Village shall not be an absolute requirement for eligibility. A nonresident may be considered eligible where the evidence demonstrates a substantial and meaningful connection to the Village or a significant contribution to the Village community. B. Insufficient Connection The following, standing alone, shall generally be insufficient to establish eligibility: 1. Occasional visitation to the Village;

Page 104

2. Attendance at Village events as a visitor; 3. General appreciation for the beauty, character, or history of the Village; 4. A desire by a family member or other applicant to create a memorial in a particular Village location without a substantial connection between the proposed subject and the Village; 5. Ownership of property outside the Village without a meaningful community connection; 6. A personal, sentimental, or familial connection to the Village that does not otherwise demonstrate a substantial community connection; or 7. The fact that the proposed subject enjoyed visiting or spending time in the Village. Nothing in this subsection shall prevent the Village Board from considering the totality of the circumstances where other evidence demonstrates a substantial and meaningful connection to the Village. 5. PUBLIC COMMEMORATION; NO RIGHT TO A MEMORIAL Approval under this policy is discretionary. No person shall have a right or entitlement to a commemorative memorial on Village property based solely upon residency, length of residency, payment of costs, donation of funds, or satisfaction of any individual criterion in this policy. The Village Board shall determine whether a proposed subject is appropriate for public commemoration on Village property. The Village's decision shall consider the totality of the circumstances and the purposes of this program. The Village Board may decline an otherwise eligible request when, in its judgment, a public memorial is not appropriate under the circumstances or would not serve the purposes of this policy. 6. TYPES OF MEMORIALS The Village may consider requests for: 1. Memorial trees;

Page 105

2. Memorial benches; or 3. A memorial tree or bench accompanied by an approved commemorative plaque or marker. The Village Board may establish standards, limitations or caps on the number of memorials approved under this program. The availability of a particular type of memorial shall be subject to the availability of appropriate Village property and the Village's operational, maintenance and capital needs. PART I — APPLICATION AND REVIEW PROCESS 7. APPLICATION An application for a commemorative memorial shall be submitted to the Village Clerk on a form approved by the Village. The application shall include, at a minimum: 1. The name and contact information of the applicant; 2. The name of the person, organization, event or contribution to be commemorated; 3. A description of the subject's connection to the Village; 4. A description of the person's or organization's contributions to the Village, if applicable; 5.

Page 106

Submission of an application does not create a right to consideration by the Village Board or a right to a commemorative memorial. 8. PRELIMINARY ELIGIBILITY AND ADMINISTRATIVE SCREENING Before an application is referred for technical review or presented to the Village Board, the Village Administrator, or their designee, shall conduct a preliminary administrative screening. The purpose of the preliminary screening is to determine whether the application presents sufficient information to warrant further consideration under this policy. The Village Administrator shall consider whether: 1. The application is complete; 2. The proposed subject falls within a category that may be considered under this policy; 3. The application provides sufficient information demonstrating a substantial and meaningful connection to the Village or a meaningful contribution to the Village community; 4. The request is consistent with the purpose and intent of this policy; and 5. Additional information is reasonably necessary before the application can proceed. The Village Administrator may request additional information from the applicant before making a preliminary determination. A. Administrative Determination Following preliminary screening, the Village Administrator may: 1. Advance the application for technical review and potential consideration by the Village Board; 2. Request additional information from the applicant; 3. Defer the application pending resolution of a location, technical, operational or other issue; or 4. Close the application without referral to the Village Board where the application does not demonstrate a sufficient connection to the Village, is inconsistent with the purpose of this policy, or otherwise does not warrant further consideration.

Page 107

A determination to close an application under this section shall not constitute a final determination by the Village Board regarding the eligibility of the person, organization, event or contribution for public commemoration. The Village Administrator shall provide the applicant with written notice of a decision to close an application and, where appropriate, a brief explanation of the basis for the determination. B. Discretionary Nature of Screening The preliminary screening process is intended to manage the administration of the program and ensure that applications presented to the Village Board are sufficiently developed and appropriate for municipal consideration. The Village Administrator shall not make a final determination that a person, organization, event or contribution is or is not worthy of public commemoration. Final approval of a commemorative memorial remains with the Village Board as provided in this policy. C. Reapplication Following Administrative Closure An application that is closed under this section may be resubmitted when the applicant can provide materially new information, address the deficiencies identified by the Village Administrator, or present a substantially different proposal. The Village Administrator may determine whether a subsequent submission presents sufficient new information to warrant further review. 9. TECHNICAL REVIEW Applications advanced through preliminary administrative screening shall be referred, as appropriate, for technical review. Technical review may include review by the Department of Public Works, the Village Tree Board, the Village Administrator, the Village Clerk, or other Village personnel or advisors as appropriate to the proposed memorial. Technical review shall address matters including: 1. Proposed location; 2. Accessibility; 3. Public safety;

Page 108

4. Pedestrian circulation; 5. Maintenance; 6. Utilities and infrastructure; 7. Future Village projects; 8. Tree species and planting conditions; 9. Bench design and placement; 10. Site conditions; and 11. Other operational or technical considerations. Technical review shall not determine whether the proposed subject is worthy of public commemoration. That determination shall remain with the Village Board. 10. TECHNICAL REVIEW OF MEMORIAL TREES For requests involving memorial trees, the Department of Public Works shall review the proposed location, tree species, size, planting conditions and other operational considerations. The Village Tree Board may be consulted when appropriate regarding: 1. Tree species; 2. Tree size; 3. Planting location; 4. Tree spacing; 5. Compatibility with existing trees; 6. Long-term tree health; 7. Diversity of species; 8. Consistency with Village tree practices; and 9. Other horticultural or forestry considerations. The Tree Board's role under this policy shall be advisory.

Page 109

The Tree Board shall not have final authority to determine whether a person, organization, event or contribution is worthy of public commemoration. 11. TECHNICAL REVIEW OF MEMORIAL BENCHES For requests involving memorial benches, the Department of Public Works shall review the proposed location and design for: 1. Pedestrian circulation; 2. Accessibility; 3. Public safety; 4. Maintenance requirements; 5. Compatibility with surrounding improvements; 6. Existing benches and public amenities; 7. Utilities and infrastructure; 8. Future Village projects; and 9. Other operational considerations. The Village may require that a proposed bench design be modified or replaced with a Village-approved design. 12. VILLAGE BOARD REVIEW AND APPROVAL Following preliminary administrative screening and any necessary technical review, the application may be presented to the Village Board of Trustees for final consideration. The Village Board shall have final authority over: 1. Whether the proposed subject is eligible for public commemoration; 2. Whether a memorial is appropriate; 3. Whether a memorial tree or bench is approved; 4. The type and general design of the memorial; 5. The location of the memorial;

Page 110

6. The species and size of a memorial tree; 7. The wording and design of any plaque or marker; and 8. Any conditions imposed upon approval. The Village Board may approve, deny, table, modify or condition an application. Approval may be conditioned upon completion of additional requirements identified by the Village. An application that has been advanced by the Village Administrator shall not be deemed recommended for approval solely by virtue of having been advanced. The Village Board retains independent and final discretion to approve or deny any application. n application for a commemorative memorial shall be submitted to the Village Clerk on a form approved by the Village. The application shall include, at a minimum: 1. The name and contact information of the applicant; 2. The name of the person, organization, event or contribution to be commemorated; 3. A description of the subject's connection to the Village; 4. A description of the person's or organization's contributions to the Village, if applicable; 5. A proposed location, if the applicant wishes to suggest one; 6. The requested type of memorial; 7. A proposed plaque or inscription, if applicable; 8. Any supporting documentation the applicant wishes the Village to consider; and 9. Any additional information reasonably requested by the Village. The applicant may be requested to provide letters, photographs, historical information, newspaper articles, organizational records or other documentation supporting the proposed memorial. The Village may accept applications submitted by an individual, family member, organization, civic group, business, or other interested party.

8. PRELIMINARY ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW Before an application is presented to the Village Board, it shall undergo a preliminary administrative review. The Village Administrator, or their designee, shall coordinate the preliminary review in consultation with the Department of Public Works and the Village Clerk. The purpose of the preliminary review shall be to determine: 1. Whether the application is complete; 2. Whether the proposed subject appears to meet the basic eligibility criteria; 3. Whether the proposed memorial type is feasible; 4. Whether the proposed or potential location is appropriate for further consideration; 5. Whether there are foreseeable operational, accessibility, maintenance, safety, utility, construction, or other concerns; and 6. Whether additional information should be obtained before the matter is presented to the Village Board. The preliminary review is not intended to constitute final approval of the memorial. The Village Administrator may recommend that an application be supplemented, modified, deferred, or not forwarded to the Village Board where the application clearly fails to satisfy the basic requirements of this policy. 9. TECHNICAL REVIEW OF MEMORIAL TREES For requests involving memorial trees, the Department of Public Works shall review the proposed location, tree species, size, planting conditions and other operational considerations. The Village Tree Board may be consulted when appropriate regarding: 1. Tree species; 2. Tree size; 3. Planting location;

Page 112

4. Tree spacing; 5. Compatibility with existing trees; 6. Long-term tree health; 7. Diversity of species; 8. Consistency with Village tree practices; and 9. Other horticultural or forestry considerations. The Tree Board's role under this policy shall be advisory. The Tree Board shall not have final authority to determine whether a person, organization, event or contribution is worthy of public commemoration. 10. TECHNICAL REVIEW OF MEMORIAL BENCHES For requests involving memorial benches, the Department of Public Works shall review the proposed location and design for: 1. Pedestrian circulation; 2. Accessibility; 3. Public safety; 4. Maintenance requirements; 5. Compatibility with surrounding improvements; 6. Existing benches and public amenities; 7. Utilities and infrastructure; 8. Future Village projects; and 9. Other operational considerations. The Village may require that a proposed bench design be modified or replaced with a Village-approved design. 11. VILLAGE BOARD REVIEW AND APPROVAL

Page 113

Following preliminary administrative review, the application shall be presented to the Village Board of Trustees for final consideration. The Village Board shall have final authority over: 1. Whether the proposed subject is eligible for public commemoration; 2. Whether a memorial is appropriate; 3. Whether a memorial tree or bench is approved; 4. The type and general design of the memorial; 5. The location of the memorial; 6. The species and size of a memorial tree; 7. The wording and design of any plaque or marker; and 8. Any conditions imposed upon approval. The Village Board may approve, deny, table, modify or condition an application. Approval may be conditioned upon completion of additional requirements identified by the Village. PART II — LOCATION AND DESIGN 12. LOCATION The Village shall retain sole discretion to determine the final location of any memorial tree or bench. An applicant may request a specific location, but such request shall be advisory only and shall not create any right to that location. Memorials may be located on Village-owned property or within Village rights-of-way when determined appropriate by the Village. The Village shall consider: 1. Public safety; 2. Accessibility; 3. Pedestrian circulation;

Page 114

4. Existing landscaping; 5. Existing trees and vegetation; 6. Utilities and infrastructure; 7. Drainage; 8. Sight lines; 9. Proximity to roads and intersections; 10. Compatibility with surrounding property; 11. Future construction or capital projects; 12. Maintenance requirements; 13. The character and appearance of the location; and 14. Any other factor relevant to the Village's use and management of the property. The Village shall not be required to maintain a list of available memorial locations. 13. MEMORIAL TREES — SPECIES AND SIZE All memorial trees shall be selected and planted in accordance with applicable Village requirements and sound horticultural practices. The Village may maintain or utilize lists of desirable and prohibited tree species consistent with Chapter 240 of the Village Code. The Village shall have final authority over the species and size of a memorial tree. As a general guideline, memorial trees should be of a size comparable to trees used in the Village's regular street-tree planting program, generally approximately two-inch caliper or another size determined appropriate by the Department of Public Works. Very small or immature saplings may be rejected where their size would make establishment, protection or long-term maintenance impractical. Trees substantially larger than the Village's standard planting size may also be rejected where the size would materially reduce the likelihood of successful transplanting or establishment.

Page 115

The Village may require an alternative species or size where the requested tree is unsuitable for the proposed location. 14. MEMORIAL BENCHES — DESIGN AND SIZE All memorial benches shall be of a design, material, color and size approved by the Village. The Village may establish one or more standard bench designs for use under this program. An applicant may request a particular design, but the Village shall have final authority over the bench design. Benches shall not interfere with pedestrian circulation, accessibility, drainage, maintenance activities, snow removal or other Village operations. PART III — PLAQUES AND INSCRIPTIONS 15. MEMORIAL PLAQUES A commemorative plaque or marker may be permitted in connection with an approved memorial. All plaques and markers shall be subject to final approval by the Village Board or its authorized designee. The Village shall determine the appropriate size, material, design, placement and method of installation based upon the location and type of memorial. The Village may establish standard plaque formats for the program. 16. PLAQUE WORDING Plaque wording shall be limited to language appropriate for a public memorial. Plaques shall not contain: 1. Commercial advertising; 2. Business promotion; 3. Political campaign messages; 4. Political endorsements;

Page 116

5. Profane or obscene language; 6. Language that is discriminatory, threatening or harassing; 7. Language that is unrelated to the approved memorial; or 8. Other content inconsistent with the purpose of a public commemorative memorial. The Village reserves the right to approve, reject or require modification of proposed plaque wording. The Village may establish a maximum number of words or characters and may require the use of a standard memorial format. PART IV — COSTS AND DONATIONS 17. APPLICANT RESPONSIBILITY FOR COSTS Unless otherwise determined by the Village Board, the applicant shall be responsible for the costs associated with an approved memorial. Such costs may include: 1. Purchase of the tree or bench; 2. Delivery; 3. Installation; 4. Soil preparation; 5. Tree staking and initial establishment; 6. Plaque or marker; 7. Plaque or marker installation; 8. Required landscaping or site preparation; and 9. Other reasonable costs directly associated with the memorial. The Village may establish a fee schedule for memorial trees, benches, plaques and related services. The Village may require payment of estimated costs before ordering materials or commencing installation.

Page 117

The Village may require a deposit sufficient to cover anticipated costs. 18. PAYMENT DOES NOT GUARANTEE APPROVAL Payment of any fee, donation or estimated cost shall not constitute approval of an application. No applicant shall acquire a right to a memorial, location, tree species, bench design, plaque wording or other Village property by virtue of payment. If an application is denied, the Village shall determine the disposition of any funds previously deposited in accordance with the applicable fee schedule and any agreement with the applicant. PART V — INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE 19. INSTALLATION All memorial trees and benches shall be installed by the Village or by a contractor authorized by the Village. Applicants shall not independently install, remove, modify, repair or relocate a memorial on Village property. The Village shall determine the timing of installation. Memorial trees shall generally be planted during periods considered appropriate for long- term tree survival and establishment, as determined by the Department of Public Works. 20. OWNERSHIP Upon installation on Village-owned property or within a Village right-of-way, the memorial tree, bench, plaque and associated improvements shall become and remain the property of the Village. The applicant shall acquire no ownership interest, easement, leasehold interest, maintenance right or other property interest in the memorial or the location. 21. TREE MAINTENANCE

Page 118

Memorial trees shall be maintained by the Village in substantially the same manner as other Village trees, subject to available resources and the Village's ordinary maintenance practices. The Village shall not guarantee the survival of any memorial tree. Memorial trees may be pruned, treated, relocated, removed or replaced as determined necessary for public safety, tree health, utility work, construction, infrastructure work, maintenance or other legitimate Village purposes. 22. INITIAL TREE ESTABLISHMENT The Village shall make reasonable efforts to establish newly planted memorial trees in accordance with its ordinary tree-planting practices. Where appropriate, newly planted trees may receive staking, watering and other establishment measures consistent with Village practices. The Village shall not be responsible for providing a level of care beyond that ordinarily provided to comparable Village trees. 23. TREE FAILURE AND REPLACEMENT If a memorial tree dies or fails within the first two years following installation, the Village shall evaluate the condition of the tree and may replace it in accordance with its ordinary tree-replacement practices. The Village may select a different species, size or location where the original selection or location is determined to be unsuitable. After two years, the Village shall have no obligation to replace a memorial tree that dies, becomes diseased, is damaged, or is removed for any reason. Nothing in this section shall limit the Village's authority to replace a tree at any time when the Village determines that replacement is appropriate. PART VI — REMOVAL, RELOCATION AND CHANGES 24. VILLAGE RIGHT TO REMOVE OR RELOCATE MEMORIALS

Page 119

The Village reserves the right to remove, relocate, modify or replace a memorial when reasonably necessary for: 1. Public safety; 2. Construction; 3. Infrastructure improvements; 4. Utility work; 5. Accessibility improvements; 6. Changes in park or streetscape design; 7. Tree health; 8. Disease or infestation; 9. Damage or deterioration; 10. Maintenance; 11. Changes in the use of Village property; or 12. Other legitimate municipal purposes. The existence of a memorial shall not restrict the Village's ability to use, improve, maintain or alter Village property. 25. NOTICE AND CONSULTATION REGARDING REMOVAL Where reasonably practicable, the Village shall make a good-faith effort to contact the original applicant before permanently removing or substantially altering a commemorative plaque or memorial. Where feasible, the Village may offer the applicant the opportunity to: 1. Receive the plaque or marker; 2. Relocate the plaque or marker at the applicant's expense; 3. Transfer the plaque or marker to another location approved by the Village; or 4. Consider another appropriate disposition.

Page 120

Nothing in this section shall require the Village to delay an action necessary to protect public health, safety, property or Village infrastructure. 26. NO GUARANTEE OF PERMANENCE Approval of a memorial does not guarantee that the memorial, tree, bench, plaque, or location will remain permanently in place. Applicants shall acknowledge this condition before installation. PART VII — SPECIAL CONDITIONS 27. MULTIPLE MEMORIAL REQUESTS The Village may consider the number and concentration of existing memorials when evaluating a new application. The Village may deny or defer an application where approval would result in an excessive concentration of memorials in a particular park, street, area or facility. The Village may establish limits on the number of memorials within a particular location. 28. DUPLICATIVE MEMORIALS The Village may consider whether a proposed memorial would duplicate an existing Village memorial or commemoration. The existence of another memorial shall not automatically prohibit a new memorial, but the Village may determine that an additional memorial is unnecessary or inappropriate. 29. MEMORIALS FOR ORGANIZATIONS, EVENTS OR CONTRIBUTIONS The Village Board may approve memorials recognizing organizations, events, historic occurrences or significant contributions to the Village where the subject has substantial civic, historical, cultural or community significance. Such memorials shall be evaluated under the same general principles applicable to individual memorials.

Page 121

30. LIVING PERSONS Memorial trees and benches under this program are intended primarily to commemorate deceased persons, organizations, events and contributions. Requests to recognize living individuals may be considered only where the Village Board determines that the request serves an appropriate public commemorative purpose and is consistent with the intent of this policy. The Village may establish additional restrictions on memorials recognizing living persons. 31. COMMERCIAL OR PRIVATE NAMING RIGHTS No memorial approved under this policy shall constitute a grant of naming rights for Village property. A memorial shall not be used primarily as advertising, promotion, sponsorship recognition or commercial identification. The Village Board may establish separate policies governing sponsorships, donations, naming rights or other forms of recognition. PART VIII — ADMINISTRATION 32. RECORD OF APPROVED MEMORIALS The Village Clerk shall maintain a record of memorials approved under this program. The record may include: 1. Name of the memorialized person, organization or event; 2. Applicant; 3. Date of approval; 4. Type of memorial; 5. Location; 6. Tree species, where applicable; 7. Plaque wording; 8. Installation date; and

Page 122

9. Other information deemed appropriate by the Village. The Village may maintain the record in electronic form. 33. CEREMONIES AND DEDICATIONS The Village shall not be required to participate in or conduct a dedication ceremony. Applicants may request permission to conduct a dedication ceremony at the memorial site, subject to applicable Village requirements and scheduling. Village officials, board members or employees may participate in such ceremonies at their discretion and subject to availability. Any ceremony shall not interfere with normal Village operations or public use of the property. 34. ADMINISTRATIVE FORMS AND PROCEDURES The Village Administrator, in consultation with the Village Clerk and Department of Public Works, may develop application forms, informational materials, standard plaque specifications, standard bench designs, fee schedules and administrative procedures necessary to implement this policy, subject to any required approval by the Village Board. Administrative procedures shall not modify the eligibility standards or final approval authority established by this policy. 35. RECONSIDERATION AND REAPPLICATION An applicant whose request is denied may submit a written request for reconsideration to the Village Board within thirty (30) days of the decision. A request for reconsideration shall identify the basis for reconsideration and may include additional information not previously submitted. Following a final denial, an applicant shall not submit a substantially similar application concerning the same person, organization or event for a period of one (1) year from the date of denial, unless the Village Administrator determines that the subsequent application presents materially new information, circumstances, or a substantially different memorial proposal that warrants reconsideration.

Page 123

The Village Administrator may determine that an application is substantially similar to a previously denied application and may decline to forward such application to the Village Board. Nothing in this section shall prevent the Village Board from reconsidering a prior decision on its own initiative. A subsequent application shall not be used to circumvent a prior Village Board determination by changing the identity of the applicant while leaving the subject and substance of the request substantially unchanged. 36. VILLAGE DISCRETION Nothing in this policy shall be construed to require the Village to approve a commemorative memorial. The Village Board retains discretion to determine whether a proposed memorial is consistent with the public interest, the character of the Village, the purposes of this program and the appropriate use of Village property. The Village may establish additional reasonable conditions as part of any approval. 37. SEVERABILITY If any provision of this policy is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions. 38. REVIEW OF POLICY The Village Board may periodically review this policy and may amend, suspend or terminate the commemorative memorial program at any time, subject to applicable law. Memorials previously approved and installed shall remain subject to the terms of this policy and any subsequent policy or law governing the use, maintenance or alteration of Village property. 39. APPROVAL

Page 124

This policy was adopted by resolution of the Village Board of Trustees of the Village of East Aurora on ______________________. Village of East Aurora By: ______________________________ Mayor Date: ____________________________ Attest: Village Clerk Date: ____________________________ A few things I would specifically flag for the attorney 1. I would ask the attorney whether this should be a resolution/policy or incorporated into the Village Code. I deliberately drafted this as a policy rather than pretending to know the proper legislative vehicle. New York's Department of State distinguishes local laws adopted by the legislative body from other municipal actions, so the attorney should determine the appropriate mechanism. D Department of State+1 2. I would have the attorney look particularly closely at Sections 4, 5, 16, 18, 25 and 30. Those are the places where the Village is exercising discretion over eligibility, public property, plaque content, donations and commemorations. 3. I intentionally changed the old draft's Tree Board role. Under the current Code, the Tree Board is an advisory body concerning trees; that makes it a very good technical reviewer, but I agree with you that it shouldn't be deciding whether someone's life warrants a public memorial. E Ecode360

Page 125

One change I particularly like compared with the old draft I would not carry forward the old $50 administrative charge. I'd instead have the Village establish an actual fee schedule based on the Village's anticipated costs. That gives you flexibility to have, for example, a tree fee, a bench fee, a plaque fee, and potentially an installation/site-preparation fee rather than having to amend the policy every time costs change. And I would not make the applicant responsible for watering a street tree as the old draft contemplated. The old language is somewhat awkward because responsibility could effectively fall on an adjacent property owner who had nothing to do with the memorial. I'd make the memorial tree part of the Village's ordinary tree-maintenance system. One final policy choice I'd discuss with the Board I think the most important decision before this goes to the attorney is who conducts the preliminary review. My preference would be: Applicant → Village Clerk (completeness) → Village Administrator + DPW Superintendent (preliminary review) → Tree Board only if a tree/technical issue warrants it → Village Board (final decision). That keeps the Tree Board out of the uncomfortable position of deciding whether a deceased person was “important enough,” while giving you a meaningful screening process so the full Board isn't receiving applications that are obviously inconsistent with the policy. And importantly, the first person's situation you described would have a clear path through this policy: residency isn't required, and a longstanding, recognizable presence and meaningful relationship with the East Aurora community can independently establish eligibility. The second situation would generally fail because merely admiring East Aurora's beauty, without a substantial community connection, isn't enough. I think that's the core distinction the policy needs to accomplish.
