Valley Stream trustees approve package of routine resolutions on bids, insurance, recreation and permits
Summary
The Village Board approved multiple resolutions correcting earlier numbering, awarding low bids for pool and road work, accepting engineering fees, adopting the New York State standard workday reporting, approving flood insurance per FEMA requirements, renewing a special‑use permit and authorizing recreation contracts and facility uses.
The Valley Stream Village Board voted on a package of resolutions that corrected earlier numbering errors, awarded low bidders for pool and road projects, accepted engineering professional fees, adopted New York State standard workday reporting for elected and appointed officials and approved several recreation and facility permits.
Resolution 076‑25 amended resolution numbering from the recent reorganization meeting and related budget documents. Resolution 077‑25 awarded the low bidder for supplies related to the village pool complex so vendors can order goods to open the pool; the board also approved a concession arrangement at the same terms as last year, with the concession price noted by staff as $6,500.
Resolution 078‑25 established New York State standard workday reporting for elected and appointed officials; staff explained the requirement includes a 30‑day posting and a 15‑day filing requirement with the state retirement system. The board voted to accept Lucchese Engineering’s professional service fees for the 2025 road improvement program (080‑25) and approved the low bid for construction in the road improvement program (081‑25).
The board also approved a resolution to carry flood insurance for the community center going forward to comply with FEMA requirements tied to past reimbursements (082‑25); staff said FEMA now requires flood insurance moving forward to avoid future problems with reimbursement. Trustees approved renewing the special‑use permit for the American Legion at 51 Rosebud Avenue with no changes from the prior year.
Recreation program approvals included hiring a registered nurse for the Barrick Park recreation program at a rate of $28 per hour, a scheduled adult dance at Valley Stream Pool with a total cost of $11,400 and summer concert entertainment budgeted at approximately $56,500. The board also approved multiple requests to use village facilities for community events and noted a public hearing scheduled for 7 p.m. on May 19 regarding the annual renewal for a public parking improvement project.
Vote and process: For each resolution presented, the board moved and seconded the item and then took roll‑call votes. Roll calls recorded Trustees Tuffarelli, Thomas, Waszak, Gailey and Daley voting yes on the package of routine items; the meeting transcript shows unanimous yes votes for the resolutions taken that night.
Other administrative items discussed included tax bill timing and several tax‑settlement matters (including a large parcel on Sunrise Highway) and a recommendation from departments to award a roof repair contract based on lowest qualified bid. After completing the public agenda, the board voted to enter executive session to discuss litigation.
