Highland Falls board authorizes remedial action for 11 Drew, grants 7‑day reprieve for 46 Church
Summary
After due‑process hearings the board authorized village crews to remedy code violations at 11 Drew Avenue and levy costs to the property if unpaid; 46 Church Street was given a seven‑day abeyance to correct vehicle registration issues.
The Board of Trustees held two due‑process hearings and took formal action on property maintenance violations. For 11 Drew Avenue the board found repeated violations of the Village of Highland Falls property‑maintenance code and adopted a resolution authorizing village contractors to enter the property to remedy violations; all costs incurred will be charged to the property owner and may be levied on the tax roll if unpaid.
For 46 Church Street a property representative explained a DMV appointment had been scheduled to register a vehicle; the board, on advice of counsel, held remedy in abeyance for seven days to allow the owner time to complete the registration. The mayor and code‑enforcement officer confirmed certified notices were issued and that the village had documentation of the notices.
The board recorded roll‑call votes on both matters consistent with due‑process procedures and directed staff to follow up administratively to confirm compliance.
