Babylon board approves five resolutions in special June 22 meeting

The Town of Babylon Board approved five resolutions at a special meeting on June 22, 2026, voting 4‑0 on each item with Councilman McSweeney absent due to an ankle injury. Supervisor Schaffer made each motion; several were seconded by council members and approved either by voice vote or roll call.

The meeting opened with the Pledge of Allegiance and a moment of silence for service members. The presiding official explained the agenda format — public hearings (none scheduled), resolutions, and an open portion for residents — and directed residents who wish to speak to complete a card with the town clerk. A live YouTube feed of the meeting was available for remote viewers.

During the resolutions portion the board moved through the items in sequence. Supervisor Schaffer moved to approve “resolution 4 66,” seconded by Councilman Martinez; the clerk called the roll and the board approved the measure by a 4‑0 vote with one absence. The board then approved “resolution 4 67” (motion seconded by Councilman Mineta) and “resolution 4 68” (seconded by Councilman Gregory) by voice vote. Later, the board approved “resolution 4 69” following a roll call and concluded the series of motions by approving “resolution 4 72” (seconded by Councilman Mineta) by roll call; each vote was recorded as four in favor, zero opposed, one absent.

No substantive debate, public testimony, or amendments to the items were recorded in the transcript for these resolutions. The clerk confirmed attendance during roll calls for each motion; Councilman McSweeney was noted as unable to attend because of an ankle injury. The meeting record lists the adopted resolutions by their numbers as referenced on the agenda available to attendees.
