Ridgeway board approves reappointments, benefits, ARPA-funded security and garage door projects
Summary
At its Nov. 18 meeting the Ridgeway Town Board approved a package of routine resolutions: training approval, reappointments, reassessment of unpaid water bills, approval of 2025 health insurance, and acceptance of ARPA-funded bids for security cameras and highway garage doors.
The Ridgeway Town Board used a single meeting to approve several routine but actionable resolutions on Nov. 18, 2024.
What the board approved (motions, movers, seconds and outcomes): - Association of Towns land‑use training for four staff/officials — moved by Councilman Cliff Barber, seconded by Councilman Toussaint; adopted 4-0. - Reappointment of Supervisor Brian Napoli to Orleans County Planning Board (three-year term beginning Jan. 2025) — moved by Councilman Toussaint, seconded by Councilman Payne; adopted (3 Ayes, 0 Nays, 1 Abstain — Supervisor Napoli abstained on his reappointment). - Reappointment of Michael Snyder to the Board of Assessment Review (term Oct. 1, 2024–Sept. 30, 2029) — moved by Councilman Barber, seconded by Councilman Toussaint; adopted 4-0. - Reassess unpaid water bills to be placed on the 2025 Town and County tax bills — moved by Councilman Toussaint, seconded by Councilman Barber; adopted 4-0. Supervisor Napoli noted the total to be reassessed remained under $10,000. - Approve 2025 Independent Health proposal and authorize the Supervisor to sign — moved by Councilman Toussaint, seconded by Councilman Barber; adopted 4-0. - Accept low bid from Direct Security Systems for security camera installation at Town Hall and Highway Department ($16,300) using ARPA funds — moved by Councilman Payne, seconded by Councilman Toussaint; adopted 4-0. - Accept Sunrise Door & Woodworks Inc. bid for four overhead doors and installation at Highway Garage ($36,200) using ARPA funds — moved by Councilman Barber, seconded by Councilman Toussaint; adopted 4-0.
Why it matters: these approvals authorize staff training, confirm board representation at the county level, finalize personnel-related insurance coverage, permit reassessment of delinquent water charges to tax rolls, and obligate ARPA funds for security and highway facility improvements.
Provenance: The resolutions and vote totals are recorded in the meeting minutes; bid amounts were read into the record and motions recorded by clerk.
