VILLAGE OF WOODBURY---DAY ONE

OK kids...Were gonna do day one....

We'll the village has passed. Now what? First see if your job allows any overtime, you may need the extra money :-)

But, all joking aside, you all voted, and you all said you want to be a village. I, as a proud member of the Sons of the American Revolution and descendant of a patriot that fought in the Revolution to give us the freedoms we enjoy respects your choice.

So where do we go from here...

Notice will soon be sent to the N. Y. S. Secretary of State informing them of our decision. Once the Report of Incorporation is filed with the Secretary of State, then the village is officially incorporated.

Then our wonderful Town Clerk who graciously hosted the people of this town for nearly 12 hours of voting, vote counting and vote challenging yesterday appoints a Village Clerk.

60 days after the appointment of the Village Clerk, we will have an election for Mayor and Village Board. Terms will be altered (some shorter some longer) so that a rotating system will go in to effect....similar to how the town board is elected.

As soon as possible following the election of Mayor and a Village Board, the board will formally meet for the first time to appoint a permanent Village Clerk and a Village Treasurer. Other positions that this new village plans to create may also be appointed at such time.

And then we are on our way...

There is much much more that goes in to this process. If you like dry legal reading, consult the Village Laws of the great State of N. Y.
