CARLISLE — The Town of Carlisle Board approved 18 organizational resolutions for 2026 and also conducted some other business at its Wednesday, Jan. 7 meeting.
Organizational resolutions were approved five at a time. They included naming The Mountain Eagle and Times Journal as the town's official newspapers, though Supervisor John Leavitt indicated Carlisle would be dealing primarily with The Mountain Eagle.
Some other organizational resolutions named the town's official depositories, set the monthly board meeting again as the first Wednesday of the month at 7 p.m., and fixed salaries for all elected and appointed officials.
In other actions from the Jan. 7 meeting, new council member Christine Kraemer was welcomed and wished well. Council member Mary Tillapaugh was thanked for her hard work and organization of the town's annual Christmas Party in mid-December that Tillapaugh said went well.
"There weren't quite as many kids as there were last year, but everyone that came had a wonderful time," she said. "I had five grandkids there and I know they all had a wonderful time."
Highway Superintendent Mike Broadwell was unable to attend the meeting because was catching up on sleep from what's been a busy snow plowing winter so far. Reading from Broadwell's written report, Leavitt said that the town's new 2025 Western Star plow truck was delivered on Dec. 9 and was immediately put to work plowing snow the next day. There have been no mechanical issues with plow trucks during the last month, Leavitt added.
He said Town Historian Chris Keefer plans to give several more historical programs and presentations again in 2026. The town's annual birding tour will be the second Saturday in May, he continued. Town Clerk Stacy Bruyette reported that some residents in the Sloansville area have been slow getting their tax bills because of problems with mail delivery in that area.
New LED lights in the parking lot at the town municipal building are working well, it was reported.
