Mineola trustees approve routine permits, parking controls, security contract and well repairs
Summary
The Village of Mineola Board of Trustees approved a slate of routine items — permits and minutes, traffic and parking signage, a short-term security contract for Memorial Park, and two change orders to repair the packed tower aeration system at Well No. 4 (including a $62,886.15 transfer and a $51,329 contract payment).
The Village of Mineola Board of Trustees on Dec. 3 approved a series of routine administrative and operational items, including event permits, traffic and parking signage, a temporary security contract for holiday events and repairs to a water‑system aeration unit.
The board approved bills and payroll and the minutes from Nov. 5 and Nov. 11/12, 2025, by voice vote after motions were made and seconded. It granted Corpus Christi Church permission to hold a devotional procession on Friday, Dec. 12, about 8:15–9:15 p.m., following the route listed on the agenda.
The board authorized Eastgate Security Incorporated to provide security at Memorial Park for December holiday programming, citing an hourly rate of $34.75. Trustees said the short-term contract will supplement safety coverage during the village’s winter festival and other scheduled events.
Traffic-control actions included approval of a "No stopping/standing anytime" sign at 49 Windsor Avenue to prevent obstruction of two business aprons and a separate resolution creating a no-parking loading zone (and no stopping/standing signs) in front of 101 Searing Avenue. Both items were presented as local-business safety measures and passed after routine motions and seconds.
Two change orders to address a leaking packed tower aeration system at Well No. 4 were approved. The board authorized change order No. 9, approving a transfer of $62,886.15 from the general contract to the plumbing contract to perform required repairs and noting that the transfer would leave no funds remaining in the general contract. The board also authorized change order No. 10 under the plumbing contract to rehabilitate the PTAS at an identified cost of $51,329; the contractor named was Benson Contracting, Inc., and funding was cited as coming from bid item 6.
Every motion reported in the public meeting was moved, seconded and recorded by voice as "Aye" with the presiding official stating the motion carried; the transcript records no roll-call tallies or named dissenting votes.
The meeting concluded after other routine business and community announcements, including reminders about upcoming holiday events.
