Town of Lagrange - Town Board Meeting 01212026
Published: Jan 22, 2026
Town Board Enters Executive Session to Discuss Pending Litigation
The Town Board entered executive session to discuss pending litigation filed in Duchess County Supreme Court, identified by index number [cite: 1013]. The purpose was to receive an update from an attorney on the status of the litigation. No action was to be taken during the executive session. The litigation involves a building constructed in the town, with a previous council member reportedly having been 'too much involved'. The board would return to the regular meeting after the session, though no further agenda items were anticipated.
Parks and Recreation Department Busy with Projects, Planning 250th Birthday Celebration
Council Member John Graasso reported on his first advisory board meeting for the parks and recreation department on January 15th. He described the meeting, run by Sandy Washbourne, as beautiful, informative, and organized. The department is very busy with ongoing and new projects, including the installation of an AED on a field. Sports meetings for baseball and football are upcoming. A major initiative being discussed is a free event for residents in late July to celebrate the country's 250th birthday, with plans to finalize the date, sponsorships, and food arrangements (hamburgers, hot dogs).
Highway Superintendent Urges Cooperation on Snow Removal; Enforcement Challenges Noted
The Highway Superintendent addressed the town's snow ordinance and the need for residents to keep roads and cul-de-sacs clear of parked vehicles to facilitate snow plowing. He also reminded residents to keep garbage cans off the road. The Superintendent mentioned that while signs are posted on some streets, the ordinance is clearly outlined on the town website and in town documentation. He also noted the challenge of enforcement without dedicated ticketing personnel. A resident suggested that enforcing the 'No Parking' signs with fines would encourage compliance.
Town Board Adopts New Public Comment Policy for Increased Transparency
The Town Board considered and adopted a new policy regarding public comment during town board meetings. The policy establishes two opportunities for public comment: one prior to board action on agenda items, limited to agenda items only and three minutes per speaker, and a second opportunity at the end of the meeting for general town comments, also limited to three minutes per speaker. This policy aims to increase transparency in town board meetings and will take effect upon majority vote approval. The motion to adopt the policy was passed.
Highway Superintendent Urges Compliance with Snow Ordinance Ahead of Storm
The Highway Superintendent addressed the upcoming weekend storm and reminded residents about the town's snow ordinance, which prohibits parking on town streets from November 1st to April 15th. He requested residents move their vehicles from roads and cul-de-sacs, noting that parked cars in cul-de-sacs hinder snow plowing efforts. He also reminded residents to keep garbage cans off the road to ensure safe passage for plows. An email blast will be sent out to remind residents of the parking rules. The Superintendent also noted that while no parking signs are posted on select streets, the rule is clearly available on the town website and in town documentation.
