Village
of Piermont, New York
At
last night’s Board of Trustees meeting, we adopted a new law establishing an
independent Traffic and Parking Commission that will meet periodically to
examine issues and strategies for improvements, and to hear from and inform the
public. This important step was one of the recommendations of the Comprehensive
Plan that we adopted in 2025, and lays the groundwork for a robust conversation
inclusive of all community stakeholders. In the next few weeks, we will need to
appoint the members of the new commission, so if you feel you have knowledge or
experience that could help elevate that conversation, please reach out to me at

I
am also pleased to share that today, our Building Department sent out notices
to the various property owners that everyone’s favorite fence is not in
compliance with our code and must be removed. Some cleanup of the site is also
ordered to comply with our property maintenance requirements, and make sure
there are no conditions that are a hazard to public safety. While we do not
currently have a timeline as to when those conditions will be remedied, this
crucial first step has initiated a process that we will monitor closely until a
satisfactory result has been achieved.
