Top issues during term (20)
Verizon Equipment Upgrade at 73 Crosby Road
A removal bond amount was set to protect the town if equipment is ever abandoned.
Special Permits for Land Conservation
Limiting new construction protects the tax-exempt status discussions and avoids taxable accessory uses on conserved land.
Pabst Water District PFAS filtration and $850K bond
The project is capped at $850,000 and largely covered by an 80/20 grant, limiting local borrowing.
Blue Envelope Program for residents with autism and related conditions
Free to the town and residents — it's funded privately by WeFayo's founders.
Grant Road LLC application at 658 Grant Road
Chapter 189 Tree Ordinance
Restoration and possible litigation costs fall on the property owner, who may seek recovery from the neighbor.
Delancey Hall renovations and move-in
Estimated around $35,000, less if the town buys the paint itself.
Croton Falls Water District Fund Deficit
Failure to act could cost the town roughly $6,200 more on the November 5 note paydown.
Political signs in the public right-of-way
Minimal — staff time from a thinly stretched highway crew.
Route 121 parking near Hayfields
The town will need to buy and install about 61 signs, with the highway department declining to install them.
Tree ordinance and not-for-profit special permit amendments
New permit fees (roughly $75–$100 for the administrative permit) and possibly higher fines — up to $2,500 per tree — are on the table.
Candlewood Lake culvert and road work
Roughly $826,000 sought, with the county match making the FEMA share potentially cost-free to the town.
Auxiliary heat for Delancey Hall
This payment is $117,616.01, part of a contract totaling about $664,800.
Lobdell House porch repair
Roughly $400,000 in needed repairs; the porch alone is estimated in the mid-$20,000s.
Hawley Woods subdivision approval
Three new homes with wells and septic systems would add construction traffic and development on a wooded tract; no town cost estimate was given.
Delancey Hall renovation and reopening
The award is $7,311.01 to the low bidder, with alternatives costing $1,300 to $2,800 more.
$526,000 ARPA commitment to Somers sewer project
Sewer funding costs were not stated in the agenda.
water and sewer districts special meeting
No tax impact — the supervisor confirmed millions in cash remain — but sloppy accounting makes oversight harder.
Silver Coup / Nash Road Lot Line Change
2027 tentative budget
Tasers would cost about $10,795 over five years; the meals program jumped from $1,875 budgeted to a $3,200+ actual bill this year.
