Town Commissioners — 2022-10-26

The Queenstown Commissioners met on October 26, 2022. A public hearing opened on a zoning amendment to permit certain home occupations (the proposed Ordinance was renumbered from 22-07 to 22-08); two residents from 107 Old Wharf Lane spoke in favor and a vote occurred following public comment (record shows a 3-0 vote at 6:05 PM). Commissioners addressed a range of routine reports and actions: planning commission parking recommendations (no immediate code changes), ongoing infrastructure projects (I&I work, Old Wharf Lane stormwater priority, Wall Street water projects), marine projects, and policy items including water/sewer code clarifications and pending Ordinance 22-06 review. Operational items decided or reported included approving a $3,285 proposal from Bayside Fire Protection for town office fire protection work, a $212 increase for the WWTP screen change (part ordered, Susquehanna to install), approval of activity committee prize amounts for the Tree Lighting event, town fund balances (General $326,711.50; WW-S $76,784.54; ARPA $685,375.79), and scheduling one regular meeting in November and December.
