From the desk of:

              Keith A. Langley, Supervisor

                                     Town of East Greenbush

 2013 is off to a positive start.  This month we are happy to welcome new employees to the Town.  The Town Board has appointed Stephen Shea as the Director of Community and Recreation Department, we are happy to have Stephen as a full time employee with the Town.  Stephen has worked with the Summer Camp Program since 2007, and comes eager to work and take the department to the next level.

The Town Board along with the Police department welcomed two new Police Officers to our Police Force.  Matthew C. Wyld and Mark J. Herrington are currently attending the Police Academy and we look forward to their service to the community.

I would like to welcome two of my appointments as well, Denise Corellis, and Janet Whitbeck.  Denise joins the Town as the Supervisor’s Secretary, and Janet will be taking over as the Town Historian.  I greatly appreciate Waldi Cavanaugh staying until I was able to find someone to take over the reins.  Everyone at Town Hall will miss Waldi, as she has been valuable and has enriched the history of the Town for all to see.  Enjoy your retirement Waldi!

This month we are making progress with the Waste Water Treatment Plant project as we move into the financial stage. The application has been submitted to EFC and planning is well under way.  As always, if you have any questions regarding the WWTP, please don’t hesitate to email me, or call.

Congratulations to all the new officers and member of the three fire districts with in the Town of East Greenbush.  My office, along with several of the Town Board members have had the privilege of attending the Fire Department Installation Dinners and learning of the accomplishments Best Luther, Clinton Heights and East Greenbush have made both locally and throughout New York State.  We have three great volunteer organizations within our community that deserve thanks and congratulations for their hard work.

My final words in this Supervisor’s report go to a few of our Town employees who are currently recuperating from their surgeries.  On behalf of Town Hall I would like to wish you well and for speedy recoveries.  Your presence is missed and we look forward to your return!

Be Well!
