During a recent government meeting, members reflected on the significant contributions of Chuck Roussebot, who is set to retire after years of dedicated service to the village. One attendee expressed gratitude for Roussebot's mentorship and commitment, noting, \"He bleeds Balmondsville,\" and emphasized that he would be missed at future meetings.
The meeting also addressed logistical matters, including a motion to approve attendance for Cheryl Adsett and Kelly Battles at the NYSAMCC annual conference scheduled for September 29 to October 3, 2024. The total cost for gas mileage was set at $2,014, with discussions highlighting the need for clarity on the conference's purpose, which relates to municipal court clerks.
Additionally, the board appointed Renee McMonigal as the senior center coordinator, effective June 24, 2024, with a salary of $51,000. This appointment is contingent upon her passing a civil service exam, the scheduling of which remains uncertain.
Overall, the meeting underscored the village's commitment to continuity in leadership and professional development, while also acknowledging the personal impact of Roussebot's departure.
