Town board adopts resolution to create Plattekill ambulance district, subject to referendum
Summary
The Town Board approved Resolution No. 39 to establish an ambulance district covering the town, finding the service necessary and leaving the measure subject to a permissive referendum. A full copy of the resolution was made available at the clerk’s office.
The Town of Plattekill Board on Aug. 5 voted to adopt Resolution No. 39, establishing an ambulance district intended to provide emergency medical and ambulance transportation services to properties within the proposed district. Supervisor Lendly read the resolution and moved for adoption; the motion was seconded and recorded as 'Aye.'
The resolution, read into the record, states the board held a public hearing on the proposal and that notice and procedural requirements under Town Law Article 12 were met. It says the proposed district will include all areas of the town that would benefit from consolidated ambulance services and that creation of the district is in the public interest. A copy of the complete resolution is available for inspection at the town clerk’s office during business hours.
The board recorded the action as adopted subject to a permissive referendum, meaning voters may petition to require a referendum on the establishment of the district. The clerk recorded the board’s vote as 'Aye' at the meeting. The board did not provide a recorded roll‑call tally in the minutes on file at the time of the meeting.
