Village of Red Hook ~ Sewer Department 1 Monthly Report ’ ' May 2024

We continue to work with the village engineer on the planning of expansion phase II. This work also includes discussion around servicing sewer to the Town. There are many elements up in the air but we have been zoning in our expanses in Phase I and the potential need in Phase II so that we can accurately estimate costs for this second phase.

As a reminder to all residents whether you are in the Sewer Use Area or not be kind to your pipes! Please put only 3 P’s in the toilet: Pee, Poop and (Toilet) Paper and while in the kitchen (or near other drains) no Fats, Oils, or Grease “FOG” – they clog up the pipes and make the system stressed. What goes down the drain matters!

If you are in the sewer use area and the emergency alarm goes off, call the Village Sewer Operator (845) 758-1081, option 8. Press the “Silence Alarm” button ONLY AFTER notifying the Sewer Operator. Please do not open the box or tamper with Village owned equipment.

Village of Red Hook LY Speed Limit Initiative ' Monthly Report ’ ' May 2024 ’

Our engineers are looking over all the data for the second and third part of the study. However, in light of the recent tragedy and what appears to be excessive speeding lately we are hoping to be able to move quickly on lowering the speed limit and bringing attention to the necessity of slowing down and abiding by posted speed and parking laws.
