Bike Path Updates
The bike path is nearly completed and ahead of schedule! Final paving and landscaping should be completed by mid May.If you haven't had a chance to use the path, you will be very impressed. |

Old Dock Rd. Parking Issues With the development of the new bike path, we have also seen a dramatic increase in the use of the parking lot. This has become an issue as the bike path has diminished the size of the parking lot. The anticipated competition for space between bikers and boaters has prompted the Village Association to meet with town officials to try and resolve parking patterns and safety issues.
We expect a resolution to the issue soon and hope to have a positive update.

Old Dock Rd. Paving  An update from the Town Engineering Dept. indicates that the road will not be re-paved until the Fall of 2009 due to changes in the regulations for the storm water run off. The project will include redesigning the catch basins and resurfacing the town dock. This will help eliminate a number of the large puddle issues and the harbor contamination from road run off.
