01/21/25 Board Report
Department of Public Works
Following the snow storm, salt trucks went out at 4 PM Sunday afternoon as precipitation fell and temperatures plummeted. Plows began to clear Village roads at approximately 8:30 PM and crews worked tirelessly throughout the night in very difficult conditions to have all roads cleared. We are so very grateful for our dedicated DPW crews for their hard work. All roads and buildings were cleared by 5:00 AM Monday morning. Please be reminded to clear the sidewalk in front of your home, as well as clearing corners and fire hydrants.
Additionally, Village roads and buildings have been cleaned and maintained, and all garbage and recycling has been collected throughout the Village.
Four Village Studio

MTA
The MTA/LIRR has recently informed the Village of the anticipated construction of a retaining wall just west of the Floral Park Station. As part of this project, seven large trees will be removed next week inside the fence line of the MTA/LIRR property necessitating partial road closures. The retaining wall project is slated to begin February 10th, and will take several months. Superintendents Ginnane and Marcus, Village Administrator Gerry Bambrick, Mayor Fitzgerald, and myself will be meeting with MTA/LIRR officials later in the week to discuss this work.
