For the next four months, every time you see, hear, or smell a gas leaf blower right on through the day of New Year's Eve, I want you to remember that someone, a whole lot of someone's including you is in harm's way. Hearing damage, emphysema, asthma…
Hi. Dave Farrington Road. First good news is DPW chooses less pollution for Croton. All of our lungs, especially our kids' lungs. Thank you. Now let's have some fun, a little thought experiment. How many gas leaf blowers do you think are working in a…

Hi. Hello. Dave Farrington Road. First, I'd like to acknowledge, trustee Nicholson's suggestion last week that we inform everyone of our seasonal gas leaf blower ban coming up starting June 1. I think that's a good idea along with the new banner just…
The towns whose code officers are still drowning in disputes are the towns that tried to live with hour by hour rules. I've heard this is government overreach. To that I would say, if this town can pass a noise ordinance against barking dogs, crowing…
Mayor Pugh stated that this will provide a lot of needed support for our committees
and appreciates their willingness to be flexible while understanding that this is an
evolutionary process.
