Summary

Trustees heard that North Main Street pole removal is complete but new water-main installation will delay sidewalk and street reconstruction until April 1, 2026; National Grid agreed to reimburse paving where new mains were installed and paving will be scheduled in spring.

The Highway Department reported progress and scheduling changes for several infrastructure projects. Crews removed poles on North Main Street, but the new water-main installation requires several weeks to become operational, prompting a decision to delay sidewalk and street reconstruction until April 1, 2026, to avoid winter- and holiday-related disruption.

Officials said plans were reviewed and approved by the Nassau County Department of Health and that National Grid will reimburse paving where new mains were installed; paving is planned for spring. The department also flagged a specific repair: ordering a new grate for Moby Way. No formal vote count was included in the work-session record; staff described the decision to delay reconstruction as based on seasonal and operational considerations.
