BID and CDA report: solar array testing, EV fair and a planned ADA pathway project

Board of Trustees of the Village of Patchogue · March 9, 2026

Summary

David Kennedy told trustees the BID will adopt its budget March 10; the train-station solar array enters final testing and an EV & Sustainability Fair is set for April 11; CDA approved a five-year plan and is studying a $195,000 pathway/curb-cut project at 380 Bay Avenue.

David Kennedy reviewed the BID, Special Projects and CDA report, saying the BID will adopt its annual budget on March 10 and that funding has been set aside for Waverly Avenue streetlight upgrades and additional holiday decorations. He said the CDA passed a five-year plan and is proposing a pathway and curb-cut project at 380 Bay Avenue estimated at about $195,000; annual CDA grant funding allocated for the year is $115,000, so options to supplement or scale back the project are under review.

"The solar array at the train station should be having its final testing done within the next few days," Kennedy said, and he reminded trustees that the Village will sponsor an EV and Sustainability Fair at the train station on April 11 to highlight the installation. The Climate Smart Task Force is also working toward Bronze status and developing a long-term sustainability plan with Cornell Cooperative.
