Summary of Public Comments:

Annmarie Uhl, Sparkill, asked for the Town Board’s insight with granting Community Funding and she requested the Town Board to consider a four-year term for the Supervisor.

Robert Dell, Orangetown Planning Board, is in favor of Chief Bill Harris Way.  He asked the Town Board to consider expanding the Comprehensive Plan review, to look at land development regulations and the zoning code.

Max and Mary Kaplan, Orangeburg, read a letter regarding their experience with the Supervisor and other Town employees regarding code violations.
