WHEREAS, the State of New York Unified Court System is soliciting applications from local governments under the Justice Court Assistance Program (JCAP) to assist local Justice Departments with needed equipment, automation, furniture, supplies and training; and WHEREAS, the funding available under the Justice Court Assistance Program would facilitate local efforts in upgrading the Court’s HVAC system, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: that the Board of the Village of Croton-on- Hudson authorizes the Croton-on-Hudson Village Court to apply for a JCAP grant in the 2022-2023 grant cycle up to $26,050. DISCUSSION Village Manager Healy explained that at last week’s meeting, a resolution was on the agenda to use monies from the contingency account to upgrade the HVAC system in the court, as it is failing. It was brought to Manager Healy’s attention that state funding is available to cover the improvements. The aforementioned resolution was tabled, and Manager Healy worked with Court Clerk Lisa Teichman to consolidate the grant application materials. Part of the application requires a formal resolution from the Board. As the application is due on Friday, October 14, and the next Board meeting will not take place until Monday, October 17, a special meeting was requested to ensure the resolution is completed in time for the application deadline.
