The Village of Highland Falls Board of Trustees appointed two full‑time DPW maintenance workers: Brandon Colory effective Nov. 20 and Joseph Lennon effective Dec. 1; both appointments carried on roll-call votes and include a probationary period.
Trustees also authorized the mayor to sign a land-permission letter supporting a Burns Avenue grant application from the Town Historical Society, approved the fourth annual holiday parade and tree-lighting event for Dec. 5, accepted the low bid from Neighbors Landscaping for a preserved-tree pruning contract (grant-funded), and set a special meeting for Dec. 10 at Village Hall to receive an architect’s presentation and continue zoning discussion.
The board reviewed and voted on the bulk warrant for bills and claims after removing certain items for separate consideration; trustees discussed one vendor payment for the Little League FEMA project before approving the warrant totals by roll call.
The meeting closed after department reports on water, building permits and DPW operations and with appreciation for volunteers and police support for community events.
