The meeting
of the Oswego Town Board was held on May 8, 2006 at the town hall. Supervisor
Mullen opened the meeting at 7:00 PM with the Pledge of Allegiance; roll
call was taken with the following members present.
Supervisor's Report: We held a yard sale on Saturday to sell surplus town items and netted about $150.00. The community center has been sold, and the town netted 39 thousand dollars. The property is now back on the tax rolls and the new owner will be opening an antique store at the location. I am working with county planning to finish the work that was started last year on revising our zoning. The contract we had with the county was not fulfilled on their part, and hopefully we can come to an agreement soon to move forward. The school board will hold elections here at town hall on Tuesday the 16th of May between 12 noon and 9 pm. Thank you to the highway department for moving the voting machine to town hall for this election.
