Supervisor's Update- April 8th, 2013

Spring has finally arrived and there are activities galore- please join us in enjoying the festivities and bettering our community!

April 16, 2013 – Town Hall Meeting

Ossining Library 7:30 PM – Lower Level Entrance

Some of the topics that we plan to discuss at the meeting are:

  • Expectations of Public Officials: We want to hear from you what you expect from both your elected officials and the appointed Department Managers.    
  • Transparency in Government : Our goal is to give you the information you require to best understand and participate in your local government. We will always do this to the best of our ability. How can we do better?
  • Details on Highway Audit : There has been a prolonged discussion on the scrap metal portion of the Highway Department Audit; at this meeting, we will discuss the rest of the audit and encourage the Highway Superintendent to share positive updates and workable action plans to move this department forward, while protecting the tax dollars spent there.
  • Where we stand with the SRO at the Middle School: We will outline the process that has been used to determine the correct course of action ensuring support for the program at AMD.

As always, these are your meetings: we encourage you to come with your own questions for the Board.

Supervisor's Update - January 2013

A Message from Town Supervisor Sue Donnelly

Good evening. The entire Board hopes that you and yours are finding peace, joy and especially time together during this holiday season. It seems to be especially important this year because of all the unbelievable events that have happened right in our “backyard”: the devastation of the hurricane, and the senseless murder of so many babies and heroes, all within a two month period. Sometimes we try to distance ourselves from tragedy, but we really never can. Let us remember by standing  together as a community so that we can move forward. Please remember that if you need help, if you know someone that needs help, or if you are concerned about someone, please let us know; the Town of Ossining, as well as the Villages and school systems, are available to help.

This has been a very exciting year for the Town of Ossining.  The Town Board and the administration have been dedicated to accomplishing the goal of keeping services at the high level that the residents deserve, while being fiscally conservative with expenditures.

During 2012, we implemented and/or closely monitored several policies that not only protect and preserve  tax dollars, but also clarify procedures for all employees.  The ability to have structured policies is important, and we will continue to review, adjust and document all of these policies in 2013.
