Town Board OKs Wastewater Study, Introduces Zoning Change
The Fallsburg Town Board on June 24 authorized a professional services agreement for a wastewater feasibility study aimed at identifying alternatives to the Woodridge Wastewater Treatment Plant for the Davos area. The 5-0 vote was among several actions at the meeting, which also included the introduction of a zoning amendment and approval of a stipend for a court officer.
Wastewater study approved
The board voted 5-0 to engage Delaware Engineering DPC to conduct the feasibility study. The study will explore alternative wastewater treatment options for the Davos area outside the existing Woodridge plant. No contract amount was included in the minutes.
Business zone rezoning proposed
The board introduced Local Law #4 of 2026, which would rezone two parcels — SBL: 17-1-30.1 and 17-1-31 — from the HR (Hamlet Residential) district to Business. All five members voted to introduce the measure and scheduled a public hearing for July 15, 2026. If approved after the hearing, the law would change the permitted uses on the properties.
Other board actions
- **Chief Court Officer stipend:** A $1,750 yearly stipend for Steve Burke was approved 5-0.
- **Peddler/Hawker/Solicitor permit:** One permit application was granted without opposition.
- **Meeting minutes:** Minutes from the June 3 and June 17, 2026 Town Board meetings were approved unanimously.
