Board approves condemnation and acquisition of portion of 8 Mangin Road
Summary
Trustees approved a resolution finding grounds to condemn and acquire a portion of property at 8 Mangin Road (SBL 209-3-4) under the New York Eminent Domain Procedure Law. The resolution passed with a recorded 3–0 vote; the minutes list two trustees as absent.
At the May 19 meeting the Village Board passed Resolution No. 039 approving the determination and findings necessary to condemn and acquire a portion of the real property located at 8 Mangin Road (SBL 209-3-4) pursuant to the New York Eminent Domain Procedure Law. The motion is recorded as accepted (mover: Mayor George Kalaj; seconder: Trustee Zalmon Rosner) and the minutes record the vote as "3 Ayes – Mayor Kalaj, Deputy Mayor Weiss and Trustee Rosner; 2 Absent Trustee Feldman and Trustee Guttman." The resolution, as recorded in the minutes, invokes the state eminent-domain procedure statute as the legal basis for the acquisition.
The minutes do not include the property map, valuation estimate, relocation or compensation details, or a staff presentation explaining the public purpose; those materials are not specified in the meeting record. The minutes therefore record the Board's determination but do not provide the supporting exhibits required for a full public accounting of an eminent-domain proceeding.
