The pros and cons of two referendums that would change the composition and size of the North Castle Town Board were discussed at a forum on Monday night, Oct. 6. The proposals, if approved in November, call for electing the board's council members by wards instead of at-large, along with adding two council seats. Panelists included Tony Futia, a North White Plains resident and former town employee who pushed for the referendums; former North Castle Supervisor Howard Arden; former Port Chester Mayor Dennis Pilla; and former New Castle resident Manny Areces, a supporter of a unsuccessful 2011 vote for a ward system in that town.
