Mayor Maley I would like to open the regular
meeting for the purpose of adopting The Village of Hunter Sewer Operating
Budget. The residential rate increased
to $123.08 from $121.02. The commercial
rate decreased to $386.24 from $417.50 last year. See
Resolution 2016 031.
Mayor Maley At this time since all the budgets, General
Fund, Sewer Operating and Water Operating are passed, I would like to have a
motion to rescind the Property Tax Cap Law which would have enabled us to
override the States tax limit. See Resolution 2016 032.
Mayor Maley Hunter Fire Co. No. 1 is having their block
party on August 6, 2016. There is a new
requirement this year as they are having beer on a public street. They requested a waiver of the open container
law for that event. I am in favor of
this. See Resolution 2016 033.
