Summary

During a public hearing on proposed amendments to Chapter 36 (Beaches and Parks), the Supervisor clarified that 'season' means May 15 to Sept. 15 for parking stickers; a Zoom commenter asked how 'resident' is defined in that chapter.

The Town Board held a public hearing on a proposed local law amending Chapter 36 (Beaches and Parks). Supervisor Amber Brach-Williams explained that the proposed amendment corrects the term "season" in the code so that it specifically refers to the period from May 15 to September 15 for parking stickers.

A Zoom participant, Pam Demarest, asked how the definition of “resident” is established for that section of the code. The Supervisor responded that definitions are chapter-specific — each chapter of the Town Code includes its own definition of “resident” tailored to that chapter’s needs. No further public comment was recorded and the hearing was closed.

The clarification anchors the parking-sticker season more precisely in the code text; the board closed the hearing to consider the record before any legislative action.
