Village of Red Hook Mayor’s Report May 2023

POLICE REPORT & LAW ENFORCEMENT:

Patrick Hildenbrand and Travis Sterritt were sworn in by the Honorable Judge Treibwaser as Lieutenant and Sergeant respectively of the Village of Red Hook Police Department on May 30, 2023 in Village Hall. Their new positions are effective as of June 1, 2023. Congratulations to them both. They are a tribute to themselves, their families, and the Village of Red Hook. We look forward to their continued service to our community.

Lt. Hildenbrand and I are meeting with the Lexipol representative in early June to begin the process of engaging and installing the Lexipol software. This project will include a review of all our police policies. Lexipol provides guidance regarding any new laws that would require changes to our policies. I will have more information to share with you next month.

Incident reports – see attached.

FIRE DEPARTMENT:

I reached out to the Fire Department in April to begin our contract renewal discussions. I am waiting for their response. Incident report – see attached.

PERSONNEL:

Doris Balacic-Scheuing is working on special projects for the Village. She is currently focused on reviewing documents and assisting with classification and storage. Brendan Whitton is a high school intern getting his final credits for school by working a few hours a week in the clerk’s office. We are in the process of interviewing for a replacement Deputy Village Clerk following the resignation of Annamarie Gruntler-Bussey in March.

Account Clerk Angela Dourdis and I have been meeting with ADP to set up a new system for recording employee time. Starting within the next two months, we will begin a new time and attendance system using ADP’s Timekeep Kiosk App. Currently, employees punch in with physical punch cards. The ADP system will have employees punching in via a tablet, located in a similar location to the current punch clocks. In addition to automatically recording time for payroll, this system will automatically keep track of all time-off and remaining balances as well.

INSURANCE:

The medical insurance carrier has been successfully switched from MVP to CDPHP as of May 1, 2023. It is projected to be a slight reduction in costs from the prior year. The deductible amounts are variable so we will review the final costs at the end of the year.

ZONING/BUILDING DEPT:

Z3 Consulting started their contract to provide Building Inspection/Zoning & Code Enforcement services for the Village on June 1. Gary Beck oversees everything. Thomas “Tom” Keith is focused on Code Enforcement. William “Bill” Johosky is focused on Building Inspection & Zoning Enforcement.

NORTHERN DUTCHESS ALLIANCE (NDA) EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE: No meeting was held in May.
