FREMONT, NY – The Fremont Town Board met on Tuesday evening for their monthly meeting, and the main event of the meeting was the swearing in, of elected officials. Officials who were sworn in were town board members Seth Hilton and Mary Soukup, as well as Highway Superintendent Thomas Flansburg.
Justice Betsey Farley sent her report to the meeting, which is her final one before she retires later in January. In her report, she thanked the Town Board for their continued support for her and cooperation, and she also cited the New York State bail reform laws as part of her reasoning for retiring, as she said that she had no leverage to enforce town laws.
Additionally, the meeting served as an organizational meeting for the year. Cindy Smith was appointed as Deputy Supervisor.
There was also a discussion on amending the Town of Fremont Land Use Regulations to include New York State Building Codes, but the discussion on that, was tabled until a later meeting.
