Responsibilities of Office
The Supervisor is the town's chief executive and is responsible
for coordinating the operations of all town departments. The Supervisor
presides over the Town Board, an elected body that passes town budgets, enacts
town legislation and conducts hearings on matters involving town
government. The Supervisor is also available to those who wish to discuss
matters relevant to town business.
The Supervisor plays a key role in assisting business people and industry
executives who are considering locating here. As a part of the review
process, the Supervisor arranges for informal discussions between interested
business persons and developers and town planners, engineers and zoning
regulators on site selections, town ordinances, zoning codes, and building
permit requirements. To help in financial matters whenever possible and to
foster the strongest possible association with potential commercial and
industrial site seekers, the Supervisor also works closely with agencies such as
the town Industrial Development Agency,
the Bethlehem Chamber of
Commerce, the
Albany County Partnership and involved state offices.
