There were no formal Village Green Committee Meetings held during the month of December, 2023 due to illness the December meeting was pushed back to January. We will discuss a formal change to our meeting schedule to better accommodate end of year schedules and the annual crunch time
Residents and businesses interested in having a tree(s) planted on their adjacent Village street or NYS highway right-of-ways, volunteering for planting days, or sponsoring a VGC beautification project, may contact David Pearson, myself, Kym Bradley-Rickard, or the Jen Cavanaugh- Village Clerk.
The Village Green will start to plan the Spring Arbor Day Celebration and Tree planting at the upcoming meeting. The planting will be held in early spring, usually April.
Meetings are open to the public and we are actively seeking members of our community to join the committee. Our next scheduled meeting is the second Sunday of January (14 Jan. 2024).
