Tonight (2021-07-12) was a meeting of the Mendon Town Board.
Yet again I found myself moderating the streaming of the meeting. As such, I wasn’t exactly in the audience. Having said that…
The topic of the evening was PUD (Planned Unit Development). In particular, repealing that section of the Town Code. While also allowing the current application to continue using it. Grandfathered, if you will. Fallout of the Mendon Green situation. As Sheldon (Town Attorney) said, tying up loose ends.
There was also an interesting discussion about phone providers. The Town Office had difficulties with their phone service today. Internet appears to have been fine. This was deliberate, as different providers are used for each of those services. For just such a situation, if one goes down the other should still work. Ideally, everything always works. But since life is rarely ideal, avoiding single points of failure is prudent.
And those are my Observations From Audience Land for the July 12, 2021 meeting of the Mendon Town Board.
