VILLAGE FB PAGE: The Village is aware of the odor that has
been present over the past couple of days. The Engineering Dept. and DPW have
examined Village infrastructure, and found no probable cause for the smell.
Furthermore, we've conducted outreach to Con Ed, Metro North, CSX, Historic
Hudson Valley, the Westchester County Health Department and others to inquire
about any recent activities that may have led to the odor. At this point, none
of these agencies/organizations have identified a potential source, but we will
continue to investigate. If you continue to smell the odor or have any questions,
please feel free to contact the Village at 914-271-4848. https://www.facebook.com/CrotonGov/

There's a 50-ft cat who roams the streets of Croton at night. There's your answer.
ReplyDeleteAh if only it were that simple! Thanks for the smile!
DeleteThank you village officials, staff, fire department volunteers and Everything Croton for keeping us so well informed. Good luck in determining what this is.
ReplyDeleteI actually some really silly comments trying to hold the board responsible, that's right, the whole board! Now you may not like everyone on the board, but come on, does anyone really believe they're all sitting around twirling their thumbs. If those people spent 10% of their time making calls or emailing or doing research instead. Kind of sad. So to the board and all the people who've done more than complain (I wanted to use the other word) and to our volunteers, not to mention everything Croton, thank you. Didn't smell it today and hopefully it's gone.
DeleteTwo days now haven't smelled it. I hope it's gone.
DeleteSnarky comments holding the mayor accountable too. Don't understand how these people can think some of this stuff is funny. This may be serious. It may be something natural in the environment. It's being checked by just about everybody. How about less of this sniping simply because the November election didn't turn out the way you'd like. Really tired of it. Thanks to our board and everyone else for their hard work.
