Trustee Lockart mentioned all the various positions Kay held at the Village over the years. Trustee Rubino thanked all the departments for a great job at the Centennial Open House this past Saturday. Deputy Mayor Sim also thanked the departments for their hard work on the Open House. He added it was 2-3 weeks of prep-work by everyone, not just employees but many other people pitched in to make it happen. Mayor Tobin said it was a great event, and the first event to kick-off the Centennial celebration. It was a lot of work by all departments. He mentioned the next event it the Centennial carnival which starts June 9th. The next focus will be on sprucing up Cook Park, to beautify the space for the carnival, picnic and amphitheater shows. Trustee Lockart commended Superintendent Decker for overseeing the paving of the complex recently, and ensuring it was completed for the open house. Chief Kayser thanked all the board who attended the fire department open house that took place in April. Superintendent Decker thanked the board for their support at the open house this weekend. He also thanked Trustee White for his assistance with the landscaping of the complex. A resident from 30 Tanglewood Road was present to discuss concerns with drainage in front of his property. He said he asked the pavers to cut back his driveway, to which the pavers said they couldn’t, and it met the 2” requirements, but with the recent rains, he said there is a lot of pooling in front of his driveway. He said in the winter months the water becomes ice and is very slippery. Deputy Mayor Sim asked Superintendent Decker to stop by the property to look at the area. Deputy Mayor Sim asked the resident if his driveway had a belly, to which he said it does, and that he is going to have his driveway repaved to fix that. The resident also mentioned concerns with speeding on the street, especially now that it is freshly paved. He said that when the speed trailer is parked there it does help for a little while. Deputy Mayor Sim mentioned we can put the radar trailer on the street again, and we can notify the Colonie Police Department of the concern. The resident mentioned that he has offered Colonie Police to sit in his driveway to observe the speeders.
