Village of Brockport seeking responses to a survey on local policing
Since early September a Police Advisory Committee, whose membership is representative of the greater Brockport Community, has been at work addressing Governor Cuomo’s Executive Order 203 which mandates that municipalities with a police force examine reforming and reimagining their police departments. The committee’s biweekly meetings have been recorded and are available to the public on the Village of Brockport’s Facebook page and website (link coming soon). Minutes are also available on our website here.
Municipalities must report their findings to the public in a public hearing, and enact any changes in a local law by April 1, 2021.
Public input in this endeavor is important. Members of the greater Brockport area who are business owners, customers, caregivers of BCSD children, and travel through our village are welcome to submit a survey; input is not limited to village residents. We want to know your thoughts on the Brockport Police Department. Accordingly, we have a short survey on local policing that we encourage you to take. The survey can be accessed here.
Thank you for helping to ensure that Brockport’s Police Department continues to serve the public in the best manner possible.

Leaf Collection for 2020 is now complete. Our leaf collection truck will now be readied for snow operations.
Village Tree Trimming & Removal
It is the time of year when our Department of Public Works removes parts of or all of village trees that may be unhealthy and a possible safety hazard. Please be advised that trees are assessed for health and risk; a tree may appear healthy but be rotted on the inside or exhibiting signs of blight that will render it a hazard in the near future.
We are proud of our Tree City USA designation and our urban forest is a priority for us, which includes trimming, removal, and replanting from time to time.

Positive Covid Case
In an effort to be as transparent as possible, we want to share with our residents that one of our village hall employees has tested positive for Covid. This employee has not been in the office since Wednesday of last week, is exhibiting no symptoms, and has followed masking and distancing protocols on the job. We have no reason to suspect any member of the public who has conducted business with the village is at risk.
Monroe County Health Department guidance has been that as long as our employees were masked and keeping 6 ft distance they would be at no to low risk if they were in a room with someone who was also masked and tested positive.
Village Hall will remain open for business.
Masking matters. Please wear a mask whenever you are outside your home, even if 6 ft apart.
