Summary

Building Inspector Richard Carroll reported a resident inquiry about on-property burial and a food truck vendor proposal for the town’s fishing season; the board noted there is no existing zoning and asked the Planning Board to review options.

Richard Carroll, Building Inspector III, told the board he received an email from a resident interested in being buried on their property and a separate email from a food truck vendor proposing to set up in town beginning the first day of fishing season. Carroll said the town currently has no zoning rules covering either private burials or food trucks and that the Planning Board will examine both topics.

Clerk Gloria Stigers said she will reach out to the Village Clerk to understand their zoning approach so the town can keep rules as consistent as possible. The Planning Board was tasked to study whether local zoning amendments are needed to regulate private in‑ground burials and food vendors and to report back to the Town Board.
