Greenburgh supervisor apologizes for delayed fire district payment; board to require resolutions be stamped quickly
Summary
Supervisor apologized to a village mayor after a February board-approved payment to a fire department was delayed by six months; the board agreed to require that future approved resolutions be stamped within two weeks to avoid similar delays.
Supervisor (speaker 2) apologized to a village mayor for an approved resolution authorizing payment to the fire department that was not acted on for six months. Town staff (speaker 3) described the lapse as an oversight and said they would "do a better job at keeping track of that moving forward." The supervisor said he will call out at each board meeting that resolutions must be stamped within two weeks after approval so that checks and other actions are implemented in a timely fashion.
The board discussed whether there were other outstanding un-stamped resolutions; staff said they would review and handle any that remain. No formal motion was recorded beyond the supervisor's announcement and staff follow-up to check for outstanding items.
Board members accepted the apology and agreed the town should tighten internal procedures to prevent future delays.
