DPW Authorized to Proceed with Drainage Repairs in Lancashire Hills Neighborhood to Address Erosion
The town board authorized the Department of Public Works (DPW) to proceed with drainage system repair work for the Lancashire Hills neighborhood. Residents have raised concerns about increased erosion in a ravine area that receives stormwater discharge from the system. Previous repairs in 2022 were insufficient. The proposed solution involves redirecting the stormwater away from the ravine into an adjacent system, estimated to cost $100,000. This includes $75,000 for sewer work by Villager Construction (using an existing county contract) and $15,000 for in-house trucking and restoration, plus a 10% contingency. Funding is already allocated in the 2026 budget. The goal is to reduce erosion and protect surrounding properties.
James Fasanella Honored for 39 Years of Service to Historic Architecture Commission
The town board recognized James Fasanella for his 39 years of service to the town of Parenton's Historic Architecture Commission, starting in 1987. Fasanella, a founding member, is the last of the original members to serve. His contributions include establishing historic districts, codes, and ordinances, and he is credited with protecting and strengthening the town's historic resources. Over his tenure, he attended over 400 meetings, accumulating thousands of hours of service. The board presented him with a commemorative flag.
Matthew Ball Appointed New Finance Director, Town Thanks Outgoing Director Brian Dick
The town board appointed Matthew Ball as the new Finance Director, effective July 6, 2026. This appointment follows a thorough search process that considered over 30 applications. Ball, a certified public accountant, brings over 10 years of experience in New York State municipal finance, with expertise in budgeting, financial reporting, compliance, and internal controls. The town also expressed gratitude to the outgoing Finance Director, Brian Dick, for his years of service and contributions, including achieving a high credit rating and implementing independent third-party audits and new accounting software. Dick will remain for a period to assist with the transition and the upcoming budget season.
DPW Authorized to Bid for New Generator Maintenance and Repair Contract
The town board authorized the Department of Public Works (DPW) to solicit bids for a new generator maintenance and repair contract. The current contract, awarded in 2021, expires at the end of the month. The proposed contract will be for one year, with options to renew annually for up to four additional years, subject to board approval. The contract will cover essential maintenance and repair services for the town's emergency generators located at facilities including Town Hall, Public Works, and several sanitary sewer pump stations, ensuring operational continuity during power outages. Discussions included details on scope of work, unit pricing, repair rates, and generator types (diesel and natural gas).
Senior Tax Exemption Income Threshold Increased to $50,000; IRA Distributions Excluded from Income
The town board approved amendments to Article 2 of the town code to increase the maximum income level for the senior citizens' tax exemption. The maximum income to qualify for a 50% exemption has been raised from $29,000 to $50,000. Additionally, the proposal eliminates the consideration of taxable IRA distributions as income for qualification purposes. These changes aim to provide more tax relief to senior residents and better reflect current living costs. The program will continue to use a sliding scale for exemptions. The town also adopted a resolution regarding the standard workday and reporting for elected and appointed officials to comply with New York State Retirement and Social Security law.
