New Town Hall Proposal
To the Class of 2020:
On behalf of the Village Board, I would like to extend congratulations to the MCS Class of 2020. They have waited for the day when they would sit next to their best friends and hear their names called at graduation. However, like a clap of thunder, they were jarred back to reality by the coronavirus pandemic, spending the last few months of the school year banished to their homes. A recent Facebook post was a profound reminder about the Class of 2020: they entered this world in the shadow of 9/11, and now will graduate in the midst of the pandemic of the century. Despite the unrest, we know that MCS graduating seniors will persist, that they will persevere and will overcome. We are confident that members of the Class of 2020 are nothing if not resilient. Part of their graduation next weekend will include a parade of cars through the Village arranged by John Durkee, MCS Principal and Bernie Podsiedlik, Marcellus Police Chief. We encourage residents of the community to turn out and congratulate, as we do, members of the MCS Class of 2020. They are truly a class act, in the long line of many other Marcellians whose diplomas read “Graduate of Marcellus High School.”

A Message from Mayor Curtin:
Dear Village Resident,
With the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) impacting everyone’s day-to-day lives, the Board of Trustees wants to express its concern for your well-being, the well-being of our employees as well as our businesses in the Village. On behalf of the Board, I want to take this opportunity to keep you informed as to what has transpired in the Village, what directives and orders from the County and State that we are expected to follow, as well as keep you informed of matters related to the operation of the Village. Much of what is related below, is already posted on the Village website, and because the news of the coronavirus is changing so often and so rapidly, the website (https://www.villageofmarcellus.com) will provide the most up-to-date information, as we know it.
Personal Conduct – the current goal of addressing COVID-19, as articulated by the CDC and the NYS Department of Health, is to mitigate against the spread of the virus and reduce its rate of transmission. The current advice from the CDC and the NYS Department of Health is as follows:
1. Individuals should frequently wash their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, individuals should use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
2. Individuals should avoid touching their eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
3. Individuals should avoid close contact with people who are sick.
4. Individuals should stay home when they are sick.
5. Individuals should cover their cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
6. Touched objects and surfaces should be frequently cleaned and disinfected.
Village Office – due to the current health risks and cautions that are being put into place, the Village Office will be closed to the public until further notice. Please call (315) 673-3112 to make an appointment.
Village Staff – we have reduced our staff as directed by the Governor – The Village Clerk and Village Treasurer are alternating days off and the four people in the DPW are also doing alternate days on and off. We have to keep the Treatment Plant covered as much as possible, and fortunately we have three certified operators who can do this. The Police Department is part time and a reduction in staff in this department would not be relevant. Governor Cuomo issued an Executive Order directing non-essential businesses to implement Work-From-Home Policies. This we have implemented by having our employees to remain employed notwithstanding where they may be physically located or assigned.
Board Meetings – please take notice that all Village meetings are closed to public attendance for the safety of all concerned, as of March 17, 2020. Authority to make the adjustment was provided by Governor Cuomo's March 13, 2020 Executive Order to temporarily suspend Open Meetings Law to allow for public bodies to hold public meetings without public attendance. If any one wishes to listen to what transpires at public board meetings, check the website calendar for dates and call the Village Office at 315-329-1330 just prior to 7 pm and you will be connected to a conference call. The minutes of Village meetings are always recorded and summaries of the meetings are available on the website under News, Mayor's Updates, for public inspection.
IMA With The Town of Marcellus – in August of 2018, an Intermunicipal Agreement with the Town of Marcellus was approved, whereby the Village of Marcellus shall, following prior authorization from the Mayor, authorize its D.P.W. Superintendent to make a positive or a negative determination, on a case by case basis, a request made by the Town Highway Superintendent, to offer assistance in the form of Village personnel, materials and/or equipment.
The Town having approved this same agreement shall, following prior authorization from the Supervisor, authorize its Highway Superintendent to make a positive or a negative determination, on a case by case basis, a request made by the Village DPW Superintendent, to offer assistance in the form of Town personnel, materials and/or equipment. Therefore if the municipal workforce of either entity is reduced because of the virus, and because the Village and Town have worked together in the past to supplement the workforce on an as-needed basis and in an informal way, both the Village and Town of Marcellus will continue to share services and resources and workforce, while the virus continues to be a threat to the functioning of government in the Town and Village of Marcellus.
For Village Police Emergencies – Call 911
For Village Sewer or Highway Emergencies – Call 315-506-9253
Village Election – Governor Cuomo has issued an Executive Order delaying Village Elections statewide until the April 28th Primary. The Executive Order also calls for any elected official holding such position to remain in office until such time as a new election is held. Therefore, Trustee Tallman and Trustee Manahan will remain in office until such time as a new election takes place.
Emergency Operations Center – County Executive Ryan McMahon has opened the Emergency Operations Center. It is now active and operational.
Child Care – if you know of families that are having concerns obtaining childcare, contact Child Care Solutions at (315) 446-1220. www.childcaresolutionscny.org
Help For Seniors – If you know of any seniors who are looking for a trustworthy source to sign-up for meals and nutritional information, CALL (315) 218-1987.
From the Police Chief – the Marcellus Police Department is attempting to facilitate and coordinate resources for the purpose of assisting those persons in our community who are most vulnerable to COVID-19. The purpose is to identify elderly community members or persons who may be vulnerable or susceptible and may need assistance. If you know of any such persons, please contact the Marcellus Police Department (315-673-2079) or the Village Clerk (315-673-3112). Please be patient if you reach a recording, since Governor Cuomo’s Executive Orders have restricted Village work hours. If you have an emergency, please call 911. The Village of Marcellus is a strong, connected and close community. We need to take care of each other and when we get through this health crisis, we will be only stronger.
Thank you for reading this letter, and in these days of uncertainty, please do not hesitate to call the Village Office at 315-673-3112 if you have any concerns that we might be able to address.
