Referendum Possible falls Trustees Approve Parking Lot Bond Issue

Hoosick Falls village trustees, by four to two, approved a bond issue not to exceed 353000 for a municipal parking lot, subject to permissive referendum. The board rejected two higher bids for intercepting sewers and the sewage plant, opting to split the project and solicit separate bids. Police will be on Halloween duty, with one truck on standby, and the mayor proposed full police jurisdiction at fires. Trustee Severson raised questions about village finances and procedures, and a Kiwanis panel discussion prompted a review of planning-board planning-book copies, to be distributed to libraries.

The trustees say open access to all undergraduates and diverse activities better serve educational aims, while housing and social life move toward personal discovery and broader student involvement.
