Presenter (staff member) introduced a draft vacant‑storefront registry modeled on other Westchester municipalities that would require owners to register properties vacant 30 days, collect contact/insurance/size/vacancy‑reason data, and impose escalating registration fees if vacancies persist; staff proposed a waiver for owners actively marketing a space and pairing registry enforcement with existing storefront improvement grants (up to 75% reimbursement) as an incentive to comply.
