At a glance: major votes and approvals from the Islip Town Board meeting
Summary
The Islip Town Board approved a series of routine and substantive actions including an IDA authorizing resolution for ISP Millworks, two property cleanups, a Clear Flow contract extension for leachate disposal, multiple downtown revitalization grant applications, and other administrative motions; several items were approved unanimously or by recorded majority.
At its regular meeting the Town of Islip Board approved a sequence of agency and administrative actions. Key outcomes included:
- ISP Millworks (IDA project): The Town of Islip Industrial Development Agency approved an authorizing resolution for ISP Millworks to relocate and expand to 355 Crooked Hill Road in Brentwood, an 80,000‑square‑foot facility described as a roughly $4.5 million capital investment that will retain 111 jobs and add 10 new positions. The IDA motion was moved and seconded and approved.
- Property cleanups: The board authorized the town to board up and secure two vacant, unsecured properties — 74 Allen Street, East Islip, and 1044 Howells Road, Bayshore — citing missing glazing, roof decay, open access doors, overgrowth, debris and unregistered vehicles; motions to board up and clean both properties were approved.
- Resource Recovery Agency contract extension: The Islip Resource Recovery Agency authorized its president to execute an extension of the contract with Clear Flow Technologies for alternative leachate disposal services at agency landfills; the item passed after the board’s motion and second.
- Grants and administrative approvals: The board authorized the supervisor to apply for and accept multiple Suffolk County Downtown Revitalization Program grants for street lighting and municipal parking lot upgrades across several downtowns (West Islip, Bay Shore, East Islip, Bayport, Islip, Brentwood); it also approved bid awards, option‑year resolutions, sole‑source designation for Eagle Control Corp to service a pump control panel at the Blydenberg Road landfill, and other routine items.
Procedural notes: Several items were handled by unanimous voice votes; where recorded roll calls occurred the meeting minutes reflect the outcomes. A time‑sensitive Fair Harbor grant application was added under waived rules and approved before adjournment.
What happens next: The IDA project will proceed under its authorizing resolution; the town attorney and departments will follow up to execute cleaning and contract actions where required.
