We were delighted to welcome Village of Red Hook Mayor Karen Smythe as our guest speaker this week, who gave us a detailed update on what has been accomplished during the first 4 months of her term as mayor, including:

 

Sewer project contracts signed, waiting for official approval letter to begin construction in the village business district

 

Zoning review, renaming the Highway Business District to the “Gateway District”

 

Municipal water system: Phase 1 & 2 completed, mapping out plan for north side of 199

 

Hardscrabble Day review, changes to promote social distancing, four local bands in the evening

 

Starting October 4th, there will be a monthly Village newsletter

 

We also welcomed a new member, attorney Ariadne Montare, who was sponsored by President Jen Van Voorhis and inducted by Judge Jonah Triebwasser. Congratulations Ariadne!
