Deputy Mayor Melkorka Kjarval’s Monthly Reports

June, 8th, 2026

Red Hook Together meets every first Thursday of the month. The group attended an Art Box 2026 Ribbon Cutting on Thursday Jun 4, 2026 at 4pm. I was unable to attend.

Town of Red Hook Comprehensive Plan:

The Town committee meets monthly from 7:30pm to 9pm on the fourth Tuesday at Town Hall. May's meeting conflicted with the Town grievance day so the meeting was canceled.

The Village board approved the Mayor reading out a letter to the Town Council, on May 12th, 2026. requesting that before they amend the law, and/or renew the tax they enter into an agreement with the Villages. The Town Supervisor attended the Village Board Workshop on May 26th, 2026 and stated he does not believe that there needs to be an MOU between the Villages and Town regarding the CPF fund and that the Village has always been represented by someone on the CPF Advisory board.
