◆Brook Street Drainage: Trustees are poised to allocate $700,000 (50% funded by Westchester County) to fix chronic flooding on Brook Street, coordinating with a Con Ed gas main replacement.
◆Snow Removal Upgrade: The plan includes purchasing a new loader with a "snowblower" attachment and upfitting a "hook and go" truck to improve efficiency during winter storms, following a season of heavy overtime.
◆Park Safety: The Board moved to fund security cameras at Croton Landing and Senasqua Park, a project deferred last year when funds were diverted to repairs at Jobs Field.
◆Farrington Road Steps: After receiving a $400,000 bid in 2024—nearly triple the budget—the village will try a "joint venture" with a mason and in-house labor to rehabilitate the historic steps for roughly $250,000.
◆Streetlight Improvements: Trustees approved $18,000 to replace green streetlight globes in the Harmon business district with warmer, black-colored LEDs to match the rest of the village.
◆Traffic Safety: A bond resolution will fund pedestrian and vehicle safety improvements at the intersection of Old Post Road North and Michaels Lane, though residents pushed for more robust community outreach.
◆Water System Expansion: Using settlement funds from PFAS litigation, the village will design a water main extension up Route 129 to serve the DPW facility and the Hendrick Hudson bus garage.

Trustees reviewed an $11.6 million capital plan for 2026, targeting long-delayed infrastructure fixes like Brook Street drainage and the Farrington Road steps, while approving a major equipment upgrade for DPW snow removal. The board also debated public engagement for traffic calming and heard requests for security cameras at village parks.
