Board authorizes Supervisor to sign NYSDOT undertaking for road closures used at events
Summary
The board authorized the Supervisor to sign a New York State DOT undertaking form that streamlines future road-closure notifications for events that connect to state roads, after Councilwoman Deal explained the portal-based process.
Councilwoman Deal presented a standard NYSDOT undertaking form required for closures that connect to state roads. She said the portal process will make future event-related closures (for example, National Night Out or July 4 activities) simpler and indicated the form could remain in the portal for an extended period.
Deal told the board, "It was a pretty in-depth thing... It will be good for us for all events," describing the form as a standard undertaking that will avoid repeated submissions for recurring events. A motion to authorize the Town Supervisor to sign the attached undertaking was made, seconded and approved by roll call.
Why it matters: adopting the undertaking reduces administrative friction for event organizers and the town when an event requires detours or barricades that affect state-connected roads.
What comes next: Supervisor authorized to sign the undertaking; staff will keep the portal record and use it for future event closures.
