Published: Apr 1, 2026
New Software Implementation and Procurement Policy Review Underway
The town is implementing new software for purchase orders and reporting, with training ongoing for the highway and parks and recreation departments. Implementation specialist Peg is overseeing this. Additionally, efforts to have National Grid late fees credited back have been successful, with Maggie credited for her work on this significant project. The procurement policy is also being reviewed and will be integrated with the new software system to ensure a repeatable and auditable process for purchases.
Comprehensive Plan Update Process Outlined; First Meeting Scheduled
The Comprehensive Plan Committee is working on updating the town's comprehensive plan. They provided an update to the board, outlining the process which includes public input opportunities and a minimum of two formal public hearings. The first public meeting is scheduled for the 17th at 6 pm at the firehouse. The committee will keep the board informed, and any adopted changes will require a resolution and a subsequent public hearing. The process involves county planning department review, public hearings, and environmental review.
Council Discusses Lighting Improvements on Route 31 Amid Safety Concerns
A discussion took place regarding overhead lighting on Route 31 between the convenience store and God Drive, an area with a 55 mph speed limit and a history of accidents due to darkness. Residents and the HOA president expressed strong support, citing a personal accident at the intersection of Harbor Shore Drive. The town is exploring options with National Grid, including extending an existing lighting district or forming a new one, with the primary challenges being cost, financing, and the process of establishing such a district. Residents are willing to pay if costs are reasonable.
Local Law Update for Flood Prevention Approved
The council opened and closed a public hearing for Local Law Number One concerning flood prevention, insurance, and criteria for addressing flooding. Following the public hearing, the council moved to approve the local law and work with Amy for filing.
Town to Consider 12-Month Moratorium on Data Centers
The town is considering a 12-month moratorium on applications and approvals for data centers, cryptocurrency mining operations, and similar high-electricity-consuming facilities. This follows a trend in other towns and addresses potential impacts. The draft moratorium defines these facilities and aims to pause new development while regulations are explored. Concerns include potential tax implications and the state's role in regulating such facilities. The council voted to set a public hearing for the moratorium for the following month.
