The legislative body of a village, the Board of Trustees, is composed of the mayor and four trustees who are elected for a term of two years. The general power granted to the board under §4-412 of the village law provides that they:

“shall have management of village property, and finances, may take all measures and do all acts, by local law, not inconsistent with the provisions of the constitution, and not inconsistent with the general law except as authorized by the Municipal Home Rule Law, which shall be deemed expedient or desirable for the good government of the village its management and business, the protection of its property, its safety, health, comfort, and general welfare of its inhabitants, the protection of their property, the preservation of peace and good order, the suppression of vice, the benefit of trade, and the preservation and protection of public works.”

The Board of Trustees meets the third Wednesday of each month at 6:30PM (except in August), at the Village Hall. Villagers and the public are encouraged to attend these meetings.

The Board of Trustees welcome your comments or concerns. ** Public Meeting Rule: If you would like to address the  Board of Trustees on any item not on the agenda, you shall be limited to 3 minutes.  Please contact the Village Clerk at 516-922-0606 for more information.
