Now that the Village Board has said plans for development at the Freightway site are on hold, two committees of the Scarsdale Forum have issued a report outlining goals and recommendations for any future proposals.

See below for their report:

(From the Scarsdale Forum) As part of the recently concluded public comment period, the Scarsdale Forum Fiscal Affairs Scarsdale and Downtown Revitalization Committees have issued a joint report on the Freightway site redevelopment proposals. The committees recommend that any project meet the Scarsdale community's collective priorities and objectives, while avoiding unnecessary risks and burdens to the school district and existing residential property owners.

Noting that the village government recently halted the redevelopment process, and that the Freightway garage currently meets commuter parking needs while generating income exceeding operating expenses/projected renovation costs, the committees recommend that the village repair and maintain the existing structure.

If the board of trustees provides an additional redevelopment proposal(s) to the community, the committees request that it share the net fiscal benefit it expects from entering into private-public partnership with a developer. Specifically, the public should receive answers to the following:

-Is there a target amount of tax relief associated with a Freightway redevelopment project?
-How does it compare with tax relief provided by the existing garage?
-Will property taxes by reduced? If so, when and by how much?
-What are the risks associated with transit-oriented development fiscal benefits?
-What new revenues are projected?
-What would the assessed value of the apartment buildings be?
-Which partner would receive parking revenues and what are the projected amounts?

Anne Hintermeister, chair of the Fiscal Affairs Scarsdale Committee, said, "Any new development will be expected to endure for many decades, into the next century. Once Scarsdale is committed to a particular outcome, the opportunity to modify it without significant future costs will be limited. The village board should share critical data necessary for an informed decision that will prioritize feasible and realistic outcomes for Freightway."

According to Susan Douglass, chair of the Downtown Revitalization Committee, "We recommend focusing on how to best achieve the community's objectives for the village center as a whole. The future of Freightway must be considered in conjunction with other developments and efforts to revitalize the area. It would be a mistake for the board of trustees to address development proposals in a piecemeal fashion -- a comprehensive approach could lead to even greater benefits and meet the goal of creating greater vibrancy."

5 Quaker Center was demolished.Though the Scarsdale Village Trustees did not address changes in the Village Code to address home teardowns, it appears that the number of home demolitions and new building permits fell for the second consecutive year.

Perhaps market forces, rather than preservation laws, have influenced development in Scarsdale.

According to the Scarsdale Building Department, last year, home demolitions or teardowns declined. In 2017 there were 31, in 2018 the number fell to 26 and in 2019 there were just 18 home demolitions.

Permits for new homes followed suit. In 2019, permits for new homes fell from 32 in 2017, to 28 in 2018 to just 20 in 2019.

Changes in the tax law and the higher prices of new homes as compared to existing homes, may have deterred buyers and discouraged builders from embarking on new projects.

How did sales in Scarsdale’s five school districts compare from 2018 to 2019. The data is below – showing that sales in Quaker Ridge increased by 75% and Fox Meadow was up 52%. Any theories about why these two neighborhoods are hot? Share your thoughts below.

Commenting on the data, Elise Flagg, Associate Broker with Houlihan Lawrence said, “In the last few years today's buyers have had to learn to accept the fact that SALT must be taken into their financial calculations and as a result we see the buyers coming back. Sellers also became more realistic and priced their homes accordingly … they listened to the market.  Sales increased in 2019.  Historically, we see the spring buyer market  begin to emerge after the Super Bowl ...and if Governor Cuomo gets his way maybe we will all get a slight SALT reprieve and see a bit of an increase in allowable SALT deductions, a welcome amendment for the entire real estate market -- if it happens.”
