Grove Road Temporary Repairs Completed
Yesterday, the Town of Jay Highway Department successfully completed the engineered temporary repairs on Grove Road, allowing it to reopen to one lane. This repair includes a jog in the lane to prevent large vehicles and tractor-trailers from using the 5-ton max repair section. This project was made possible through the engineering firm we hired in December using remaining ARPA funds. The firm is still working on plans for the permanent repair, and once the documentation is finalized, we will put the project out to bid to ensure a long-term solution.
NYSEG Bill Increases – What You Should Know
Many of us, myself included, have noticed higher-than-usual NYSEG bills this winter. NYSEG issued a statement explaining that this winter has been 15 percent colder across their service territory compared to last year. Higher energy usage combined with fluctuations in the energy supply market has driven up costs. NYSEG, as an energy delivery company, does not profit from supply cost increases. To keep residents informed, I will post NYSEG’s full statement on the bulletin boards at the Community Center.
