Somers board approves routine administrative actions including Red Cross parking license, tax warrant and budget transfers
Summary
At its March 5 work session the Somers Town Board approved a set of administrative items: acceptance of the 2025 tax warrant, a 10-year license for the American Red Cross to station an emergency vehicle at 100 Primrose Street, acceptance of a planning-board resignation, calendar adjustments and multiple 2025 budget transfers and capital-budget authorizations.
The Somers Town Board on March 5 approved multiple administrative items in a block of motions and voice votes.
The board authorized the supervisor to accept the town’s 2025 tax warrant and approved a revocable, limited license allowing the American Red Cross to park one emergency response vehicle at the municipal parking lot at 100 Primrose Street for a 10-year term beginning March 13, 2026 and expiring March 12, 2036. Board members said the police chief had no objection to the vehicle being stationed there.
The board accepted the immediate resignation of planning-board member Bruce Prince and thanked him for his service and institutional knowledge. The board also moved its April work session and regular meeting to April 9 and April 16, respectively, to avoid conflicts with religious observances.
On finance items, the board authorized a series of 2025 budget transfers and modifications and approved a long list of 2025 capital project budgets and transfers (projects read into the record included town capital projects, the Town Hall/Water Project, Reynolds House Project, park-expansion project, Anglefly preserves, a greenway grant, library teen room work and HVAC work for the library). Board members noted the full list was lengthy and was not read aloud in its entirety; motions to authorize the transfers and capital budgets passed by voice vote.
No members of the public spoke during the meeting’s public comment period.
