The Croton-on-Hudson Board of Trustees convened behind closed doors on the evening of October 29, but left residents with little to report afterward. Meeting in the Georgianna Grant Meeting Room of the Stanley H. Kellerhouse Municipal Building, the board bypassed its usual public business and moved directly into an executive session. The closed-door meeting was called to discuss two specific, legally exempt topics: pending litigation and matters that, if disclosed, would imperil public safety. Trustee Simon made the motion to enter the private session, which was seconded by Trustee Politi and passed 4-0 at 6:03 PM. Notably, Trustee Nicholson was absent for the initial vote, arriving at 6:05 PM, shortly after the doors were closed. Mayor Pugh, along with Trustees Politi, Simon, and Slippen, were present for the executive session. Village Manager Bryan Healy and Village Clerk Paula DiSanto were also in attendance. Under New York State's Open Meetings Law, municipal boards are permitted to discuss litigation and public safety vulnerabilities in private, provided they do not take any formal votes on substantive matters while out of the public eye. In this case, the board adhered strictly to that rule. After 51 minutes of discussion, the board unanimously adjourned the executive session at 6:54 PM. According to the official minutes submitted by Healy, no formal action was taken during the closed session. Because no public session was held, there was no opportunity for resident comments, departmental reports, or the introduction of new village legislation. Residents looking for updates on ongoing village projects, infrastructure, or local ordinances will need to wait for the next scheduled public meeting of the Board of Trustees. Meeting agendas and schedules are typically posted in advance on the official Village of Croton-on-Hudson website and at the Municipal Building.
