Board Welcomes Mayor Back In Busy February Session

A chaotic town report covers a mayor return, a jail sentence for failing to pay a fine, a fatal auto crash last Oct. 11 in Westchester, and a string of village meetings. Vincent Esposito of New York was jailed 20 days for inability to pay a $60 penalty after a Broadway collision that injured ten, including Mest Jonas of Brooklyn. A charity revue plan, insurance talk for a pump house, municipal staffing moves, a loan from delinquent taxes, and several trustees’ updates fill a dense board agenda. The meeting also addresses a jail sentence, a proposed pre-service, and ongoing town hall work for early March decisions.
