Welcome
May 2025-
Reflecting back over the past year I would like to take a moment and truly thank the staff at the Town Hall, Transfer Station, Highway Dept. and Town Police Department as well as the sitting Boards, Planning, ZBA and BAAR for their hard work, dedication, firm commitment and service to the Residents as well as Visitors to The Town Plattekill.
This past year there has brought about many changes, upgrades and additions to our park and town. Together we have worked tirelessly to rebuild our Park with the complete replacement of playground equipment as well as donating the equipment we removed to the Plattekill Library for their anticipated future playground. We added new Pickleball courts and a new Ga-Ga Pit. A big shout out to Anthony Kalamucki from AK Farms, Walter Hacker from Green Meadows and Scott Barcley from Barcley Trucking for donating their time and equipment to the removal of the old mulch and preparation of the new playground installation area. You guys ROCK!
The Board was able to purchase much needed equipment over the last year using the American Rescue Funds received by the Town. We added a new chipper, police vehicle, pool vehicle, much needed Police equipment as well as many other upgrades in all departments. The Board is currently working with Tinkelman and Associates on a feasibility study on the Town Hall and Highway Garage. We are in the first steps in the replacement of the Mapel Ave. sidewalk project in Clintondale with engineering firm Barton and Loguidice. The replacement of the bridge on Old Mill Rd. is progressing along and scheduled to be complete in 2026. We have new businesses on the horizon and anticipate a great year ahead!
Our Plattekill Day event is full of local vendors, music, exhibits, award ceremonies, Fun games and events for both the young and old! Along with our Great Plattekill Day is the Plattekill Veterans Committee Car Show. The Veterans Car show is being run by the one and only Cooter’s Customs and never disappoints… Whether you have a Classic beauty to enter or just want to enjoy some great American iron come enjoy a fun filled day with family, friends and neighbors…
Keep a lookout as our three Great Volunteer Fire Depts. Plattekill, Clintondale and Modena always have something going on and are always looking for good volunteers…
Plattekill has many events and things to do throughout the year if you’re looking for a summer camp for the kiddos, Coffee With-A-Cop, Trunk-or-Treat at Halloween time or a bonfire with the community at the annual Tree Lighting in December, Plattekill has it all. Please take the time visit our local farmers and businesses, Plattekill has some of the greatest business that provide great products and great services!
Have a Great and Healthy Summer! Dean DePew- Supervisor
