Celebrating Local Business & Water Infrastructure
Congratulations to the owners of Vitality Fitness on Spring Street. This weekend Supervisor Levenberg, Trustee Lopez and I stopped by with giant scissors and red ribbon to celebrate. The Supervisor even stayed to participate in the morning's cross fit class. Every small business that succeeds in Ossining is an affirmation that great things are happening for our local economy.
Last Wednesday's Village Board work session included a visit from Village Engineer Paul Fraioli and Water Superintendent Andrew Tiess. Never a dull moment for water in Ossining! The topic last week was unrelated to recent concerns regarding taste and odor. Instead it was a capital project that has been in the works for some time. When the Village participated in a Water Demand Management program offered by NYC, we undertook a proactive effort detect leaks in the water system. We were so successful in tightening up our system, we now have to compensate for that with a vent system in some of our larger tanks.
