Summary

Trustees approved an amended Long Island Housing Program technical-assistance MOU with updated dates; staff said the state's revised contract timeline could push back the public hearing for the fire-damaged 50 Rockaway Avenue project.

The board approved Resolution 139-26 to accept updated dates in the Long Island Housing Program technical-assistance memorandum of understanding. Committee member (speaker 3) told trustees the change stemmed from state scheduling and could affect the 50 Rockaway Avenue project, which was awarded a grant but did not start as planned in March.

"So just so this may affect 50 Rockaway Avenue project... we were awarded. We were supposed to start March. Didn't start March," speaker 3 said, explaining that the state sent an updated contract with new dates and the village may need to move the public hearing accordingly. Trustees approved the MOU as presented on a roll-call vote.
