Dobbs Ferry trustees approve routine resolutions ranging from event closures to signage contract
Summary
At its Feb. 10 meeting the board approved multiple routine resolutions including event street closures for summer and fall events, a tax-certiorari settlement, adoption of an updated employee handbook, and a $106,760.09 wayfinding signage contract funded by a Westchester County grant.
The Dobbs Ferry Village Board on Feb. 10 approved a package of routine resolutions and motions during its meeting. Key outcomes included:
- Approval of several event-related street closures and permits: Dine Out Dobbs (07/19/2026), Ferry Festa (10/03/2026, rain date 10/04/2026), a trick-or-treat street closure (10/30/2026) and a holiday parade/tree lighting (12/06/2026). Trustees discussed timing to avoid excessive Saturday closures and confirmed coordination with downtown businesses and religious groups for menorah lighting.
- A tax certiorari settlement with Oceana Partners 2 LLC covering 72 Main Street and two Chestnut Street parcels for tax years 2021–2025 was approved; settlement amounts were read aloud during the meeting.
- The board accepted the resignation of library board member Sam Gruen and thanked him for service.
- The updated employee handbook (dated 02/06/2026) was adopted.
- The board authorized the closure of Village Hall offices, the Department of Public Works, and the Village Court on 05/01/2026 for records management.
- The board awarded a Phase 1 wayfinding signage contract to Wellcraft Manufacturing for $106,760.09. Officials said the project is funded by a Westchester County downtown improvement grant and not village tax dollars; Ashton Design recommended the bidder as the lowest responsible proposer.
- The board authorized the 15th annual Riverkeeper sweep (05/02/2026) at the waterfront.
Votes in open session were recorded as motions made and seconded, with trustees indicating unanimous support for the listed items during roll calls. Where precise roll-call tallies were not read aloud in the transcript, the board’s recorded 'all in favor' indicated passage.
