Farmington Town Board approves routine hires, equipment purchases and fund releases
Summary
The Farmington Town Board approved a series of routine resolutions by voice vote, including a hire for Highland superintendent, a camera replacement at a town lodge, a final release of letter-of-credit funds for a Country Max site-plan project, pump maintenance contracts, and abstracts to pay 2025 and early‑2026 bills.
Farmington Town Board members approved several routine personnel, maintenance and payment actions during a regular meeting.
The board confirmed the hire of Richard as Highland superintendent at $24 per hour with no holiday pay until Jan. 2 and approved a resolution to record operation vacation time for Earl Goss. A consulting services agreement for a Crogan‑wide consultant was approved at $390 per month. The board also approved replacement of a turret camera on the back porch of the Moriah Lodge at a cost not to exceed $479.99.
The board authorized the final release of funds number 3 tied to a letter of credit for Country Max warehouse and office-building site-plan improvements; the transcript references an amount of $129,000 and also includes an additional figure rendered in the record as "$239.25" (transcript ambiguous). The board approved contracting for preventive maintenance and staff training on Gormrup pumps at pump stations 18 and 19 with a not‑to‑exceed amount referenced as $5,258.
Officials approved acceptance of partial relief for a storm-sewer easement located at 6195 Fawn Metal Road to allow a homeowner to complete a sale. The board also established pending dates for fourth‑quarter accounts for the Farms and Water District and Victor sewer districts as of Jan. 31, 2026.
By voice vote the board approved Abstract 25 to pay 2025 bills (the transcript lists line items and a total of $809,505.80) and Abstract 1 for 2026 bills (transcript lists a total of $181,268.66). The meeting record named top vendors in the payments discussion, including Ontario County Finance, iWorkQ and Holland Company.
All resolutions in the meeting record were adopted by voice votes; the transcript shows consent (“All in favor? Aye”) for each item but does not contain roll‑call tallies.
