Yonkers Insider: Town of Greenburgh Report.

Congratulations to the City of White Plains for passing a new law that could save lives and enhance quality of life---a law that enables the city to forfeiture vehicles used in connection with drag racing. I have spoken with the Greenburgh Police Chief Chris McNerney and will propose that Greenburgh adopt a similar law. It's my hope that proposed law could be reviewed by the Town Board this month and enacted into law this fall. Last week the White Plains Common Council passed legislation to address the problem of drag racing on White Plains City streets. The new law in White Plains authorizes the forfeiture of a vehicle used in connection with drag racing. A number of residents who live on or near Central Ave have complained about excessive noise at all hours of the evening -disrupting sleep and quality of life. It is well known that the noise associated with unlawful speed contests creates a nuisance and diminishes the quality of life enjoyed by our residents.
