Greenburgh Insider: Town of Greenburgh: Hearing on 2025 proposed capital budget on Monday night.


We are addressing many infrastructure needs of the town.


The Greenburgh Town Board will hold a public hearing on the proposed 2025 capital budget Monday, November 25th.  The Town Board meeting begins at 7:30 PM. We will also be holding a public hearing on the operating budget.  The operating budget was first proposed on October 30th and has been posted on the town website.


The proposed capital budget is $19,106,000. $18,594,000 is long term bonding.

A copy of the budget message and entire budget can be found on the link below:

Highlights include:


$350,000 for a new advanced life support ambulance.  It takes about three years for an ambulance to be delivered once ordered.


$4,000,000 for sewer cleaning and relining along pipes around town. Relining underground piping can extend life expectancy of pipes  from 25-50 years.


$2,500,000 for curbing around town 


$1,500,000 for drainage improvements around town


$6,500,000 for road resurfacing around town.


$1,500,00 for sidewalks, crosswalks and other safety initiatives.


$175,000 for a new playground at Secor Woods.


$175,000 for AF Veteran park pool concrete decking and stairway work.


We have a request in the 2025 capital budget to implement a system that will allow notifications for water main breaks/flushing and other related events.


The Town Board will review the proposed budget in the coming weeks and can make modifications to the budget if they wish. Much of the proposed budget was discussed months ago when department heads met with the Town Board to discuss their capital needs at televised Town Board meetings.
