Palisades Community Center News - May, 2012

Now that our ramp project has come to an end, again we thank the following community members for their generous donation or discount of services: Michael Tersigni, Shelly Cohen, Susan Nemesdy, Larry Buccarielli, Richard Rasmussen, Henry Ottley, Cellen Wolk, Dorian Tunell and Declan O’Dey. And to all those who made financial donations. We could have not done it without you!

Our next project is the installation of a handicap bathroom AND a new kitchen.
Our little kitchen cannot be used because it does not meet Fire or Health Department requirements. It needs a renovation and we need storage space. We invite you to be a part of the action!

Also, we thank the following people for recently lending-a-hand: Joyce Gavin, Chris Chin, Annie Gerard, Rubens Teles, Sylvia March, Jane Herold, Oliver Graney, Kristin Bridges, James Signorelli, David Palachek and Maximillian Seeger.

Oak Tree Sidewalk
On Sunday, March 4, James Dean, Town of Orangetown Superintendent of Highways, presented the plans of the proposed Oak Tree sidewalk to the Palisades community. The current plan is for the sidewalk to be made of brickstyled pavers and to run along the south side of Oak Tree Road from the Palisades Community Center to Route 9W with pavers. There was discussion about it running to Swan Street. The sidewalk has to be re-approved by the new Town Board. We will let you know when the next meeting or course of action will occur.
