The Town Board approved its consent agenda Sept. 2, including personnel actions (hiring part-time police and recreation staff, transferring a full-time justice clerk to part time) and accepting a donation for the senior center. The board also approved a resolution authorizing a one-time 25% reduction to an out-of-district water bill for the Town of Wappingers after a burst pipe generated an abnormally high bill.
According to the resolution, the original bill was $12,500 and, after the 25% reduction, the final amount is $9,400. Board members also discussed and approved a budget modification to fund installation of town-hall cooling towers and other facility expenses, noting internal savings by completing work in-house. Several smaller administrative resolutions (resignations accepted, hiring approvals) were adopted by voice vote as part of the consent agenda.
