PTA had agreed to partially fund the upgrade to the school crossing at Murray Avenue and Colonial
Avenue.
Supervisor Seligson noted that Mary Stanton is working on a grant application for the Complete Streets
Program. This is a no match grant for funds to be used to modify the cross walk in front of Central School,
4
August 27, 2012
and modifications in front of Murray Ave School. Supervisor Seligson noted that as an additional
recommendation from complete Streets, but not part of the grant funding, the Town will paint a crosswalk
behind Hommocks School. Supervisor Seligson noted this is a great opportunity to move forward with a
number of Complete Street recommendations that will not require Town funding.
Councilwoman Katz noted that the Town Board is invited to the home of Nancy Bressler and Doug Starn on
September 22 at 10:30. The Board is being invited as a thank you for all their hard work in upgrading the
Gardens’ Lake.

review a plan prepared by Tony Geller. Mr. Geller will also meet with the Town Board at the September
Town Board meeting. Unfortunately Syrette Dym will not be able to attend the next Town Board Meeting,
