Town Board votes to continue fluoridation

Town Board voted 3-1 to continue fluoridating the Town's water supply. Also, trip money for the senior clubs and appointment of Town Attorney.

Town Board
January 22, 2013


The main item on the agenda was the Informational Hearing on whether to continue fluoridating the Town’s water supply.
 
After listening to Westchester County Commissioner of Health Sherlita Amler, several area dentists and residents and one person, a resident of Croton-on-Hudson, who spoke against fluoridation, the  Board closed the hearing and voted 3-1, with Councilman Paganelli voting no and Councilman Bianco not present, to continue to add fluoride to the Town’s water supply.
