Swearing in Ceremony for our new Town of Ogden Police Officer Marvin DiPilato:
Supervisor Lenhard: Tonight, I have the pleasure of swearing in Marvin DiPilato. I spent some time with Marvin and he is a very interesting gentleman. For those of you who don’t know, he is replacing the part-time position for Todd Baxter. His resume is extensive and when we talked I found that he has been a lot of places and done a lot of great things. He brings a different personality to the department and I think it is a good one. I am delighted to have you here, please come forward.
*Supervisor Gay Lenhard swears in Police Officer Marvin DiPilato*:
Supervisor Lenhard: Would the Chief like to say a few words?
Chief Mears: Thank you members of the Town Board. We are very happy to have Marvin with us; some of us had the pleasure of working with him on the night shift. He is a good man and when we ask for back up and Marvin shows up, we know that we have good backup. He has impressed everyone in the department. He was with Monroe County for 20 years and has 30 years with the Air Force, just a lifetime of service to others. The fact that he has former co-workers here for his swearing in ceremony speaks volumes. We thank his family for coming and allowing us to have him part-time. Congratulations!
Officer DiPilato: Thank you for having me. In the short time I have been here it has been awesome. Thank you for the opportunity.

VII. Reports from Town Officers:
Gay H. Lenhard, Supervisor-
1. I did go to the meeting chaired by the County Executive. It was amazing, I think that every Supervisor was there so it was good. It lasted almost two hours and we didn’t really come to a conclusion to exactly what we are supposed to do. The State is not very clear, however our County Executive is going forward and looking for us to send her something that would give the County something to work with. I think one of the things we are going to hone in on is the Sewer Districts. That will be of some value to them. 2. I went to the D.A.R.E. Graduation with Chief Mears at Taylor School. It was a combination graduation of a moving up ceremony as well so it was a little lengthy but it was nice.
Thomas J. Cole, Councilman-
No report.
David F. Feeney, Councilman-
No report.
Malcolm E. Perry, Councilman-
No report.
Thomas J. Uschold, Councilman-
No report.
David H. Widger, Highway Superintendent-
1. We are moving forward with a large culvert replacement on Whittier Road south of Buffalo. All of the utility companies have volunteered to cut their utilities off through our site and then re-establish them when we are done. Whittier Road will be closed south of Buffalo Road to Westside Drive starting the 17th of July for a month.
Noelle M. Burley, Town Clerk-
1. Sarah, my Deputy and I all attended a passport refresher course in Buffalo on Monday. It was nice to meet the people that we talk with and to view the facility to see how passports are processed. We are pretty fortunate to have a Passport Agency so close to home. Usually people have to drive hours to find a facility close to them so we are fortunate that there is one so close.
Supervisor Lenhard: I just want to say that your department is very impressive with helping these people process their passports. People don’t always know what they are in for, but they are prepared because of you all. I am very proud of you. Another thing I would like to mention is the Lions Club donated a flag for Pineway Ponds park and Tony put it up today. It was the most gratifying thing he has ever done, he said. It was very nice and I think the Lions Club will be very happy when they see it.
