Village Annexes Property on 12B North

Wed, Feb 09, 2011

The Village of Hamilton is now 1.77 acres bigger.

That growth spurt is the result of the village Board of Trustees passing resolutions at its regular monthly meeting Tuesday night to annex the plot of land adjacent to the Wendt University Hotel on Rte. 12B North. Wesley Wendt recently purchased the land, which until last night had been part of the Town of Madison.

In other business Tuesday, Mayor Sue McVaugh said the process to develop the 2011-2012 budget is under way. She said she expects the new spending plan to be voted on at the board's April meeting.

The board also designated the Hamilton Public Library as the polling place for June 21election. Village residents will vote on the positions of mayor and two trustee spots.

Also on Tuesday, the board:

  • learned that staff members form the state Office of the Comptroller have finished their field work for a regular audit of the village's finances;
  • discussed how the village and the Town of Hamilton could increase the number of ways they share services;
  • approved new guidelines for the Farmers' Market and adjusted its hours to 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. instead of 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. as they had been last season;
  • and approved installation of parking regulation signs in front of St. Thomas Episcopal Church.
