Village offices relocated — temporarily

If you need visit the Village Hall offices anytime in the next week, don’t be surprised if you find the front doors locked.

Apparently, when workers were recently yanking up some old carpeting for replacement, the tiles below it also started to come up. That would not normally be a problem, but the tiles contain asbestos.   So that meant testing the air quality (which is fine) and  collecting the proper permits from the state before hiring an asbestos abatement company to finish removing the tiles.

Naturally, all that will take some time. Village officials hope the offices will only be closed for a week, and when the doors open again, there will be some beautiful new carpet in place…and no asbestos tiles.

But in the meantime, you’ll find all your favorite Village Hall employees providing all the wonderful Village Hall services (including passports) in the Department of Public Works offices just around the back. Call them at 265-3770.
