Town Board approves group of administrative resolutions including Brigham Lane sewer grant actions and solar RFP
Summary
The board approved a package of administrative motions: appointment of a deputy water superintendent, stipend adjustments, authorization of an RFP for a county solar grant project at the transfer station, purchase of LED speed signs (not to exceed $11,500), four resolutions tied to a Brigham Lane sewer Small Cities grant, authorization to execute a revised HR/payroll services proposal, and support for a $94,000 Kingston–Ulster airport study required for a grant application.
At a specially called meeting July 2, the Town of Ulster Town Board approved a series of administrative resolutions and motions grouped for a single roll-call vote.
The board appointed Ryan Weissop as deputy water superintendent, effective July 1, 2026, and approved modifications to stipends for several deputy and road maintenance positions. The board authorized an RFP for solar projects in connection with a county solar grant to install construction at the town’s transfer station in the Whittier Sewer District; the board thanked Evelyn Leferier of the Hudson Valley Regional Council for assistance preparing the RFP.
The board authorized the purchase of a two-sign LED speed traffic monitoring system from All Traffic Solutions under Sourcewell contract 090122-HS for an amount not to exceed $11,500.
On the Brigham Lane sewer extension project, the board approved four administrative resolutions: (1) designating the supervisor as the certifying officer for the Small Cities grant application; (2) committing assistance to low- and moderate-income property owners for connections to the sewer system; (3) appropriating local matching funds; and (4) declaring the town’s intent to be the lead agency for the environmental review process required for the project (transcript notes that certain notifications are required by a party named in the record). The board did not provide detailed funding amounts for the local match at the meeting; those appropriations are recorded as part of the resolutions but dollar amounts were not specified in the discussion.
The board also authorized the supervisor to execute a revised proposal for human capital management and payroll-processing services, a follow-up to a resolution passed about a month earlier.
Finally, the board approved a resolution supporting a Kingston–Ulster airport grant application; the resolution references a required study estimated at $94,000 that must be completed before the grant application can be submitted.
All items bundled in the group were approved by roll call; Councilman Shatzel, Councilwoman Hartman, Councilwoman Degrroot and Supervisor Quigley are recorded as voting yes. The meeting then opened to public comment, which included congratulations to recently appointed staff, and adjourned.
