When communicating via email I get the response in a timely fashion.
Everyone responded with a reasonable time. I do not feel as though all personal constituent concerns would be fully appreciated - but I was communicated with in a timely and respectful manner. I called the village recently about a service and they called me back (after business hours!) to give me a response. I was so thankful that the response was so personalized with a return phone call. The staff at the Village Hall are terrific. As the Mayor knows I emailed about the situation with Catalina ’ s deli and Mayor Karen was responsive as much as I think it ’ s fair to expect her to have been. In the past, emails related to the sewer had occasionally gone unanswered or responded with vague information. I did not get a response about my concern when I wrote against taking over the boat club.
I didn't get any follow up info about the results of the survey
Searching on the village site is difficult because the titles are never the same. There is a lot of crossover between the village the town . It would be helpful to have the documents mention when there is more info on the town website . Timely submission of documents would be very helpful Town clerk is great No concern I have ever brought to the Village has been truly addressed always satisfied I think having a bigger presence on social media, FB & Instagram on upcoming meetings/events with multiple reminders will put the village meetings/events on folks radar. It takes very little effort to communicate with the Village because there are multiple ways to do it. A periodic listing of the many ways might be helpful to those that forget. Having issues with the manner in which the snow was being cleared in our cul de sac. My initial concerns were addressed, however, my subsequent concerns were not. Lara Hart and Jennifer Cavanaugh have been proactively helpful for different items as we renovate our house on 3 Linden. Have been told to come to meetings to get answers yet at the meetings are told you can ask questions but board members will not answer It doesn't seem that unless my concern aligns with an issue that's already under consideration it is disregarded No response via emails, or was given incorrect information. Village clerk. Had questions answered and received requested paperwork. Handicapped parking is inadequate at many businesses: Post office, etc. Village employees are always very helpful.
