New Paltz Village Board seeks buyer for historic house, closes out sewer-line replacement project, approves contracts for fire station construction

New Paltz businessowners talk about what re-opening will be like

The New Paltz Village Board moved several long-term projects forward during its December 9 meeting.

Building inspector Cory Wirthmann has looked over the Oliver house, the building at 5 Broadhead Avenue being sold to the village for a dollar on behalf of Stewart’s. The village government wants to sell one of the few remaining homes built by Jacob Wynkoop for black families in the years following the Civil War to someone who wants to preserve that history. A request for proposals has been released, and the report Wirthmann will be writing about the building’s condition.

A hearing was held to close out the 2018 sewer-line replacement project, as required for state funding. This project is part of a much greater effort to stop untreated sewage from ending up in the Wallkill River, as agreed to under a consent order signed in 2003. Elected officials used the occasion to mark progress on this front, but also to remind residents that heavy rainfall poses a problem, and that avoiding activities such as laundry and flushing the toilet can make a difference.

Contracts to begin construction on the new fire station were approved. This is a project that’s been in the works early in this decade. Trustees were especially pleased with the new design, overhauled by Alfandre Architecture in order to be more energy-efficient  and less costly to build.
