- On the agenda tonight is consideration to re-appoint Kevin Bailey to a 5 year term as a member of the Town’s Planning/Zoning Commission.
- The Town has now on board our new WWTP Superintendent, Sean Triplett. I believe Sean to be a great hire and will prove to be a successful addition to the PITTSVILLE employee family.
- Since July 1, the Town has issued 21 building permits with $4,896.06 in building fees collected.
- The PEDC will not be meeting again until January 2024.
- The Planning/Zoning Commission met on December 7, 2023 to hear a request from Pittsville Storage to erect storage pods on their property located off Friendship Road. Since the site plan may require a storm water management plan & a forest conservation plan this matter has been referred to the county. Updates were given on both the Dale Withers “Solomon’s Village” subdivision” pending further review from the Adequate Public Facilities Advisory Committee & the “Addition to Sandyfield” waiting for a formal presentation of the preliminary site plan to be reviewed. Cannabis regulation being worked on by the P/Z Commission & Town Attorney.
- The “Hotdogs with Santa” Christmas event was held on December 9 and was a great success. A big “thank you” to all the Pittsville “ELVES” who helped and to all those who came. In January, I plan to present to the Town Commissioners our community events plan of activities for 2024!
- I have submitted the TMCR request for reimbursement of $14,496.12 for my past services rendered for the months of July, August, September.
- Still waiting to hear from DNR regarding our past due reimbursement of $3,619.69 for Phase II of the “capital park project”.
- We have received five (5) applications regarding the TOWN CLERK position. The applications will be reviewed and forwarded to the Town Commission President for further action.
- The Pittsville VFD will be holding its annual Dinner/Awards Banquet on Saturday January 20, 2024.
- I will provide the Town Commissioners per request from the Town Commission President a memo regarding possible annexation of property to include our own WWTP which will require a comprehensive property survey to be undertaken. Since becoming the Town Manager I have always desired that the WWTP be included within town limits. Commissioner Carozza has also had some concerns regarding the Pittsville Cemetery and lately I had a conversation with an individual who has property located in town and out of Town right behind it. He has indicated to me about potential annexation. I have requested a survey quote from the Town Engineers so we can determine costs. This could be on the agenda for January.
- Rob will present his report to include his recommendation of the bid for the WTP Phase IV Upgrade.
- Next month we will have the 6 months/semi-annual financial report for the Municipal Operating Budget (MOB) & the American Rescue Fund Budget.
- CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY SCHEDULE will be that the Town Offices will be closed December 22 & December 25, 2023 & for NEW YEARS HOLIDAY SCHEDULE Town Offices will be closed December 29, 2023 & January 1, 2024!
MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL!!!
