Work Session of the Village Board

7: 30 p.m.

 (Open to Public and Televised

NOTE:  Although the meeting convenes at 7:30 pm. The Board will likely go into Executive Session for approximately an hour.  The open meeting will begin at 8:30 pm.

1.      It is anticipated that the Board will enter into executive session to discuss a matter regarding public safety. 

2.      Discussion on the consideration of transferring Firefighter’s Field to the Croton-Harmon School District.  The Village-owned field is used extensively by CHHS  teams for softball.  Discussions about transferring ownership to the schools have been undertaken. Such a change would result in the district taking over responsibility for maintenance. 

3.      Discussion on the formation of a Humanities and Arts Council.  The Board will consider forming a volunteer council that would promote interest and participation in arts and humanities.  The proposed council would work in coordination with Village staff.  It is proposed to be a 7-member council with two-year terms for members and a Chair appointed by the Mayor with Board approval.  Annually, in December, the council would provide a report to the Board of Trustees summarizing its activities of the previous twelve months.
