Summary
The Town of Greenburgh appointed Nicole Murphy as personnel manager with an anticipated start date of Feb. 5, 2026. Board members discussed phasing out or capping a health-care buyout—one board member suggested an $8,000 cap—then voted to confirm the hire.
The Town of Greenburgh Town Board appointed Nicole Murphy as personnel manager, with an anticipated start date of Feb. 5, 2026, during a brief special meeting. The board moved and approved the appointment after a short discussion.
The appointment was announced by the meeting chair, who also raised a separate proposal to phase out or cap the town’s health-care buyout for employees who decline town coverage. The chair said the buyout “is now over $20,000” for some employees and suggested a cap of $8,000 for new managers to reduce costs. The town clerk responded that the hiring parameters for the posted position were already set and that any change to the buyout policy would need to be placed on a future agenda.
Following the exchange, the chair moved to appoint Murphy; the motion was seconded and carried with an affirmative response recorded as “Aye.” The transcript records the vote as an affirmative voice vote; a full roll‑call tally was not recorded in the transcript.
The discussion did not alter the current appointment or the posted terms for the hire. Board members agreed to place the buyout-cap proposal on a future agenda for further consideration and formal action.
