FRANK'S NURSERY MEETING..BATTLE OF BANDS TO RAISE FUNDS

COMMUNITY MEETING TO DISCUSS FRANK’S NURSERY. MEETING TO BE HELD AT FRANK’S NURSERY, 715 DOBBS FERRY ROAD ON TUESDAY, MAY 24TH AT 7:15 PM. (MEETING WILL BE OUTDOORS)

Greenburgh has acquired Frank’s Nursery (due to a foreclosure). An informal community discussion will be held at the property on Tuesday, May 24th at 7:15 PM. Frank’s is located at 715 Dobbs Ferry Road. Among the options to be considered: renting the property (for about a year) to a company that needs to park their trucks at Frank’s (the company cuts trees for Con Ed). Another option: a recreation bubble for recreation uses (this would require a zoning change). The town would lease the property to a private business - probably for 15 years. Others have suggested that the town sell the Police HQ and Court on Tarrytown Road and replace these two buildings with a new building at Frank’s. We don’t have the money for a new building now –but the land could serve a town purpose sometime in the future. What do you think?

We need more musicians for our E HARTSDALE AVE FARMER’S MARKET CONCERT SERIES

If you know of any musician who would like to donate their time this summer –performing at the E Hartsdale Ave farmer’s market outdoor concert series on Saturday mornings please advise Town Clerk Judith Beville at 993-1504 or e mail her at jbeville@greenburghny.com.
