Summary

After a short public hearing with no extended public testimony, the Village of Champlain Board voted by roll call to adopt Local Law No. 1 (tax cap override).

The Village of Champlain Board voted to adopt Local Law No. 1, a tax cap override, after a public hearing in which no members of the public provided extended testimony.

Board members moved out of the regular meeting to hold the public hearing and, after a brief period with one member of the public saying the tool was “necessary,” the board closed the hearing and returned to the regular meeting. A motion to adopt Local Law No. 1 was offered and seconded; the motion passed on a roll-call vote.

On the record roll call recorded in the meeting transcript shows the trustees and the mayor voting “aye.” The transcript records: “Trustee Traumpling. Aye. Trustee Malintz. Aye. Trustee Connick. Aye. Trustee Hertz. Aye. Mary McPatridge. Aye.” The meeting chair then closed consideration of the item and moved on to other business.

The transcript does not specify an ordinance number beyond “Local Law No. 1,” does not include the exact motion text as read into the record, and does not state the statutory vote threshold required for adoption in the hearing record.
