PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Kings Point will hold a public hearing BY TELEPHONE CONFERENCE commencing at 3:30 p.m. on June 15, 2020, at the Kings Point Village Hall, 32 Steppingstone Lane, Kings Point, New York 11024 with respect to the following matter:

Proposed contract with the Alert Engine, Hook, Ladder and Hose Company No. 1, Inc. for the furnishing of fire protection within the said Village for the period of one year, commencing on June 1, 2020 and ending on May 31, 2021.

As noted above, In accordance with the Governor’s March 13, 2020, Executive Order No. 202.1, which permits public meetings to be held remotely BY CONFERENCE CALL, the hearing will be held by conference call. At said hearing, all interested parties will be given an opportunity to be heard.

In accordance with said order, the public will have the ability to listen to such hearings and ask questions with regard to the proposed local laws at the Village Hall, 32 Steppingstone Lane, Kings Point, New York, and a transcript will be made of the hearings.

Because of the requirement to keep a safe social distance of 6 feet during the coronavirus pandemic and the limited facilities at the Village Hall, residents and other members of the public are strongly requested for their own safety and the safety of the Village staff and others not to attend and, instead, to read the transcript of the hearing, which will be posted on the Village website. Communication with the Board is suggested by email or regular mail instead of appearing at the meeting.

If you feel strongly compelled to listen to the hearing or to ask questions with regard to the proposed contract during the hearing, since the coronavirus and the Governor’s Executive Orders require the Village Hall to be closed to the public and the Village staff is only working on limited days and limited ours on those days, you must email the Village Clerk-Treasurer no later than 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, June 10, 2020, if you plan on listening so that safe arrangements can be attempted to provide 6-foot social distancing to those in attendance to the extent practicable.

The Village of Kings Point does not discriminate on the basis of handicapped status in administration or access to, or employment in its projects and activities. In the event that anyone needs special accommodation due to a disability, such person is required to contact the Village Clerk-Treasurer no later than 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, June 10, 2020.
