Statement from Supervisor Jon (Jay) Baisley regarding the COVID-19 Virus.

You mostly likely already know that the Governor put New York State on “Pause” at this time. The weeks to come still hold many unknowns.

Town Hall is currently closed to the public at this time. Business that needs to be done can be arranged by calling or e-mailing the appropriate departments. Due to the shortened staff requirements and some departments working remotely, you may need to leave a message, but someone will reach out to you. Drop boxes are located by the entrance door on the upper and lower floors.

Town Parks remain open for passive recreation only. The playgrounds and basketball courts are closed. When visiting the parks please practice social distancing.

The Senior Center is closed until further notice. We look forward to seeing you all again soon.

These are tough times we are currently going through. I have been extremely impressed by the stories of compassion and caring going on in the Town. We must show patience and support for one another.

Whether you are a Nurse, Medical Professional, Doctor, Policeman/woman, Firefighter, E.M.S, Supermarket Staff and all the other many essential employees or volunteer on the front lines of this pandemic, thank you for being there for us.

BE STRONG AND BE SAFE
