Town of Irondequoit

The workshop meeting agenda included remarks from the Supervisor, a tentative presentation on Historic Preservation, and a review of agenda items scheduled for the subsequent Regular Town Board Meeting on March 17, 2026. The primary item for Board action involved adopting a resolution to authorize capital lease financing for three new plow/dump trucks (two International models and one Mack model) for the Bureau of Public Works, totaling an amount to be financed of $969,571.27. This financing leverages previously provided authorizations from resolutions in 2023 and 2024 for the specific vehicles.

The public hearing for the Irondequoit Zoning Board of Appeals involved consideration of three applications requiring Area Variances. The first case involved an application to construct a detached garage with less than required side and rear setbacks, which was approved. The second case concerned an application to demolish and construct a new attached garage with a second-floor addition, extending further than the permitted maximum from the building line and with less than required front and side setbacks; this was also approved. The third case involved a proposed resub-division creating two new lots with insufficient lot depth and setbacks; this was approved subject to conditions, including a Reciprocal Easement Agreement for parking and ensuring the severance does not result in insufficient parking for the plaza at large.

The Planning Board held a Public Hearing to consider an application from Costich Engineering, representing Key Bank, for Preliminary / Final Site Plan Approval for the proposed construction of a +/- 3,500 square foot freestanding building on East Ridge Road in the RRPDD district. The building proposal includes a drive-thru auto teller lane and a 24-hour drive-through ATM. The Board granted Preliminary / Final Site Plan Approval contingent upon addressing comments from Labella, submitting signage under a separate application, providing a landscaping maintenance plan upon building permit submission, and addressing all comments from Monroe County Planning & Development.

The agenda for this meeting included several items for Board action spanning multiple departments. Key actions involved authorizing resolutions for the appointment of a Town Board Member and an Office Clerk II. Financial matters included authorizing the use of fund balance for public works equipment replacement and authorizing the Supervisor to enter into an agreement for legal services following an RFP process where proposals were received and reviewed. The Board also planned to call a Public Hearing regarding Irondequoit's Community Development Block Grant Program and another Public Hearing regarding a proposed Local Law for a Property Tax Exemption for surviving spouses of police officers killed in the line of duty. Other resolutions included authorizing a contract for Municipal Code & Compliance Management Software with Online Solutions, LLC (Citizenserve) using ARPA funds, authorizing salary increases for increased Human Resources duties, approving a Special Event License for a St Patrick's Day Festival, and authorizing police department staff attendance at training events and reimbursement to the Livingston County Sheriff's Office.
