A MESSAGE FROM SUPERVISOR FALK
posted April 24, 2023
The Town of Lima does follow NYS open meetings law rules. Our schedule of meetings is published at the beginning of each year. The Agenda for each meeting (we meet the 1st Tuesday of each month) is published on the previous Friday. This is so the public can see what is on the agenda and attend if there is something that interests them. Last minute agenda changes are only done in the case of emergencies and are posted on the web site www.lima-ny.org . The Town board moves through the agenda as posted. If there is a public hearing at the Board meeting, it is in the agenda and advertised separately in our newspaper of record “The Sentinel.” The Public can attend the meeting, and if they wish sign up to speak for 5 minutes on the hearing topic. This is designed so that the speaker can let their opinion be known. It is not a Q&A session. It is testimony that the Board can use to help form decisions. If the speaker has questions, they will be recorded and the board will publish the answers.
Any member of the Public can apply for privileges of the floor. It is easy to do so. Contact me in person, by phone or email so we can discuss. This has to be done 5 calendar days before the board meeting so that we can add the topic to the agenda so that the public can attend if they are interested. We limit the privileges of the floor to 20 minutes.
A public information session is a special meeting where there is a presentation on a particular topic. This is usually accompanied a question and answer session. The public can sign up and speak for 5 min on that particular topic. Notices of public information sessions are published in the newspaper of record, on the Town web site and sometimes with a special mailing.
All of these procedures are designed so that the public has every chance to know what is being discussed at meetings and attend if they want to. Some of the public read the notice and reach out immediately. You can reach anyone on the Town Board in person, via email, or by phone. Contact information is on the Town website or can be had by calling the Town office at 585-582-1130. These are the same rules that are followed by the Livingston County Planning Board, the HFL School Board and the Livingston County Board of Supervisors to name a few.
Since notice to the public as described above is required, random topics, yelling over others, disrespectful comments and the like are not allowed. Those are the tools of the bullies who believe that attendance at a Town board meeting and yelling loudly means that they get their way. That is mob rule and is NOT Lima. Following the above rules is the fairest and most transparent way for the entire community to know what is going on and participate. If you would like to learn more about transparency and rules you can find the NYS Committee on Open Government web site here: https://opengovernment.ny.gov/
