Town of Chili approves year-end resolutions, ARPA allocation and Paul Road sidewalk funding
Summary
At its Dec. 11 meeting the Town of Chili board approved a slate of year-end resolutions — including budget amendments, three letter-of-credit releases for the Rose Hill development, ARPA/SFRF funding and Paul Road sidewalk project funding — and accepted a zoning board resignation.
The Town of Chili board approved a series of year-end resolutions at its Dec. 11 meeting, moving a batch of administrative and project items forward and accepting a zoning board resignation.
Supervisor Dunny called the meeting to order and told board members the town’s recent holiday events were well attended. “Thank you to everybody who participated in the tree lighting and then breakfast with Santa — they were both really, really great events, very well attended,” the supervisor said.
Why it matters: The board’s votes finalize several routine year-end financial actions, clear letters of credit tied to the Rose Hill residential project and authorize project funding that will allow a Paul Road sidewalk project to proceed. The measures are administrative steps that unlock developer obligations and municipal funds ahead of the calendar year’s end.
What the board did: The board voted unanimously on every recorded resolution. Key actions included: - Resolution 236 (Child Life Department activity list): moved by Councilman Slattery, seconded by Councilman Valerio; approved 5-0. - Resolution 237 (purchase of computer equipment): moved by Councilman Dori, seconded by Councilwoman Spar; approved 5-0. - Resolution 238 (2024 budget amendments): moved by Councilman Slattery, seconded by Councilwoman Spar; approved 5-0. - Resolutions 239, 240, 241 (letters of credit releases for Rose Hill phases 4, 2 and 3): moved by Councilman Slattery, seconded by Councilman Valerio; each approved 5-0. - Resolution 242 (ARPA/SFRF funds allocation): moved by Councilman Valerio, seconded by Councilwoman Spar; approved 5-0. - Resolution 243 (Paul Road sidewalk project funding): moved and seconded during the meeting and approved 5-0. - Resolution 244 (Nov. 20, 2024 abstract): approved 5-0; Resolution 245 (Dec. 4, 2024 abstract): approved 5-0.

Other business: Town Clerk Jenny Owski reported she had received a letter from Mark Mary of the zoning board announcing his resignation effective Dec. 31, 2024. The board also acknowledged submitted year-end reports and approved previously circulated amendments from the Nov. 13 meeting.
The board recessed the meeting and scheduled the continuation for Dec. 31, 2024 at 12 p.m.
