Brookhaven Town Board lists broad slate of resolutions, schedules annexation hearing; moves into executive session

The Town of Brookhaven Town Board read a long resolution agenda that included settlements, property acquisitions, capital and operating budget amendments, grant applications, franchise extensions for pool concessions, procurement and bid awards, and several administrative personnel actions.

Among the resolutions presented were authorizations for acquisition and appropriation of property (examples include land on Beech Street, Middle Island, and 49 Manhasset Drive), extensions of franchise agreements for pool concessions, awards for tree removal and stormwater work, acceptance of grant awards (including a New York State Department of State Smart Growth grant for the Mastic Beach Zoning Code and Urban Renewal Plan project), and amendments to the town’s capital budget for airport runway improvements at Calabrio Airport under the FAA Airport Improvement Program.

The board also announced a joint annexation hearing with the Village of Port Jefferson — to consider annexation of territory from the town’s unincorporated area into the incorporated village — scheduled to be held at 6:00 p.m. on March 6, with the town board to sit alongside the village board for the hearing.

At the end of the public agenda, the supervisor asked for a motion to go into executive session to discuss one program for the public good and personnel matters. A motion was made, seconded by Councilman Munsell, and the supervisor called for the vote. The board responded in the affirmative and the motion to enter executive session carried; the meeting record states the board would conduct no further public business after the executive session.

The meeting transcript lists the full slate of resolutions by number and short subject (for example, Resolution 133: consenting to sale of discontinued roadway in front of 27 Parr Street; Resolution 136: authorizing operation of a nutrition program for the elderly; Resolution 146: appropriation of funds from the Joseph Macchi Environmental Preservation Capital Reserve Fund; Resolution 153: approval of a capital professional service requisition for rehabilitation of the transfer station tip floor; and multiple other procurement, budget and grant resolutions). The transcript does not record roll‑call votes or final board action for those resolutions during the portion of the meeting provided.

The board did not vote on the resolutions in public session in the excerpted portion of the transcript; individual resolutions were read into the record and will be subject to whatever voting procedure the board follows at a future point in the meeting or at a subsequent meeting.
