SUPERVISORS REPORT FOR WEEK ENDING 5-26-2023  As I wrote this week's report I thought about the amount of work our town team does in anticipation of Memorial Day. As part of the seasonal tasks, placing our Home Town Hero Banners throughout Wilmington has become the Hallmark of Memorial Day weekend in Wilmington. This year alone, a total of 54 Home Town Hero Banners adorn the streets of our community. I would like to thank our Parks Crew for getting this job done and Michelle Preston for organizing the banner project.  As many are aware, Memorial Day is a day for remembrance [...]

SUPERVISORS REPORT FOR THE WEEK ENDING 5-19-2023  Hello Wilmington! I hope everyone is getting their spring projects completed and feeling productive. I will say that the other day our black fly friends returned with a vengeance and I had to adapt a little. Things like fly spray, long sleeve shirts and netting became part of the tools for completing my tasks. Also, it should be noted that the Town of Wilmington still does treat with BTI in streams, brooks and wetlands to control the flies from getting out of hand. For years, the town has contracted with a company call VectorTech. [...]

SUPERVISORS REPORT FOR WEEK ENDING 5/12/2023  Hello Everyone. I am excited to share with you some news of a few upgrades in our town park. First, new safety rubber has been added to the base of all playground equipment in the park. The material used is common in recreation areas and is much safer than traditional sand. The base was also recommended by our insurance carrier.  The second improvement is some new picnic tables. The tables are steel and coated with a rubber enamel. Plans are being made to purchase fiberglass or resin umbrellas that can be added to the tables [...]

SUPERVISORS REPORT FOR WEEK ENDING 5/5/2023  Starting this week's report, I want to thank everyone that came out to our Highway Garage Open House last Saturday. Many of the residents that stopped by during the 2 hour event had never been to our facility. Although the reason for the open house was to show the repairs and improvements to our building, many younger visitors were all about the plow trucks and other equipment. I can see this event being held again down the road.  NYSEG has made the town aware that there will be some temporary power interruptions on May 8, [...]
