Brightwaters to open Walker Beach bathroom before Memorial Day; board sets trial hours
Summary
Village officials said the Walker Beach bathroom should be ready before Memorial Day and agreed to open it initially from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; trustees said they will monitor use and adjust hours if problems arise.
The board said the Walker Beach bathroom renovation is near completion and that the village intends to open the facility on a trial schedule of 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. beginning before Memorial Day.
"Right now, the bathroom should be done just before Memorial Day," the presiding official said, adding that the village planned to post a 10‑to‑5 sign and monitor usage. Residents and trustees debated possible misuse and access controls; one resident supported the limited hours for safety and said the facility is useful for families. The board said it will re-evaluate the schedule if the village encounters problems and will rely on code and police presence to address issues.
The funding source for the bathroom work and design choices were described in the meeting; the board said the project remained within its budget estimate and that cameras will monitor the front door.
