From Brighton Town Supervisor

William Moehle Winter is coming, but as I write this column, it hasn’t arrived yet! When the flakes finally do fly, those of us who love Brighton know that we can make the best of winter with winter activities, both indoors and out, and enjoy plenty of fun for the whole family. Whether you prefer skating or shopping, pickleball or pinochle, you can enjoy all that and so much more in Brighton this winter! Thanks to Brighton Recreation, and the great programs in this catalog, you can learn a new winter sport, start that art project you always imagined you could do, or meet new friends at the senior center. This year, we have many new programs for you to enjoy, including Snapology, Mad Science, Outdoor Yoga, Family Zumba Party, Laser Tag, Kids Cooking Party, PiYo, Hand Lettering, and Family/Community events such as the Bunny Bash, Bingo, and Spring Fling. Plus, we are always accepting new families in our Afterschool Program! And, there’s no need to drive through the snow to register for programs: secure on line registration is available through the Town webpage, www.townofbrighton.org/rec. The popular Brighton Winter Market will be open through mid-May, every Sunday except Easter Sunday, from 1-4 pm, at Brookside School. Every week you can enjoy local meats and produce, along with breads, desserts and cheese, from many of the same vendors who participate in the Brighton Farmers Market outdoors during the warmer months. I was very pleased that the Town of Brighton received a combined $1 million in State grants from former Assembly Majority Leader (now Member of Congress) Joe Morelle and Senator Joe Robach, which will be used to develop a new home for the Winter Market in Buckland Park. We have accepted the low bid for development of the first phase of the Winter Market project. When completed, the Winter Market will expand and thrive in its new home, fittingly on the site of a former Brighton farm.

The Brighton Memorial Library continues a wide range of programming for all ages during the winter months. Whether you are a senior or the parent of a tween or toddler; if you’re looking to take a lunchtime break with Books Sandwiched In, enjoy a family movie night out or learn to use an E-Reader, the Brighton Memorial Library has what you are looking for and so much more! The Library is generally open 7 days a week during the winter, holidays excluded. However, the Library will be open on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Please join us from 11:00 am-12:00 pm as members of the Blackstorytelling League of Rochester pass on stories of their history, heritage and culture. For more information about Library programming, visit www. brightonlibrary.org. The new Brickyard Trail, like all Town parks and trails, will be open all winter. We do not plow the Brickyard Trail, or any of our other trails, but they are open throughout the winter for hiking, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. The Brickyard Trail and Lehigh Valley Trail will also be open for cyclists, including fat tire snow riding, throughout the winter, but cycling is not permitted in Corbett’s Glen Nature Park because of its environmentally sensitive character. Construction will begin in early 2019 on the Highland Crossing Trail, a joint Brighton/Rochester project that will connect the Erie Canal Trail and Brighton Town Park with Highland Park and the Genesee Valley Trail, providing a multi-modal route for recreation and commuting to downtown Rochester. The Brighton Symphony Orchestra also performs throughout the winter, including their popular holiday concert on Sunday, December 16th at 3:00 pm at the Clover Center in the Baptist Temple, 1101 Clover St., directed by Ric Jones, and guest appearance by Genesee Chorale. Admission is free to all Brighton Symphony concerts, and you can enjoy

585-784-5260 • brighton.recreation@townofbrighton.org

a dessert reception with the musicians following the Holiday Concert. All property owners are required by law to keep the sidewalks in front of their properties clear of ice and snow. Remember, school children are walking to school while it is still dark in the morning, and they must be able to safely use sidewalks. If you or your neighborhood would like an easier way to meet this obligation to clear your sidewalks for next winter, talk to the Department of Public Works about establishing a sidewalk snow removal district in your neighborhood. It will cost only a few dollars a year, and ensure safe sidewalks, while saving you time and cold mornings shoveling heavy snow. While walking and cycling, even during winter, is good for our health and for the environment, sometimes driving is the only practical option. Winter driving can bring special hazards, so remember these tips to stay safe during the winter months. • Allow yourself more time to get to your destination • Brake slowly and avoid making any sudden stops, turns and lane changes • Clear all snow from your car windows and lights for visibility • Consider snow tires, rather than allseason tires, for superior stopping in ice and snow The Brighton Police Department will continue to pay special attention to traffic safety in Brighton throughout the winter. Children can be difficult to see in winter light conditions and please remember that even driving at the speed limit may be too fast for inclement winter conditions. Remember that snow plows need extra room to operate…please give them that room, and don’t try to pass them in close quarters. Winter sometimes seems endless but with a little help from the many opportunities found in this winter newsletter, you can actually enjoy winter while it lasts!

BRIGHTON RECREATION UPDATES The Recreation Department has been hard at work giving our programs and brochure a fresh new look for the New Year! In 2019 you will see that we have reorganized the brochure to allow greater ease of use, putting valuable information at your fingertips. We have renamed some of our usual program categories to better help you identify the activities and programs that are important to you and your family.

Although it may look and feel a bit different, all of the programs you have come to know and love are all still here (perhaps in a new location), and there are many new offerings that we think you will enjoy. Please join us, stretch and explore beyond your usual comfort zone, to seek out programs for you and your family. Who knows, you may just find a

new hidden treasure amongst our pages! We are always mindful of the needs of you, our customers. If you have any difficulty finding what you are looking for, or have any questions we invite you to give us a call at 585-784-5260 x0 or send us an email at brighton. recreation@townofbrighton.org. We are always happy to assist you! We know change is hard, but when the end result is this improved, we hope you will agree it is well worth it!

Brighton Highway Winter Policies The Town of Brighton is responsible for snow and ice control on Town, County and State roads within Brighton with the exception of the NY State Expressways. As winter approaches, we want to remind everyone of the necessary rules and regulations that provide for your safety and the safety of the traveling public on main roads and neighborhood streets within the Town during the winter snow and ice season. Our Highway Department Dispatchers are on duty 24 hours a day during the winter season and may be reached at 784-5280. Some important winter policies for you to be aware of are: • Highway and Road Salting - Our Highway Department follows the “Sensible Salting Guidelines” established by the County of Monroe, in conjunction with the Environmental Management Council. This policy requires us to use only enough salt to make our highways safe for motorists, but requires you to reduce your

driving speed according to conditions. • Mailboxes - It is the Town’s policy to repair mailboxes that are damaged by town plows during snow plowing operations or to replace them with a standard rural mailbox and post. Since there is no legal authority which grants an owner the right to place a mailbox along a public road in the right-of-way, our repairs and replacements are done as a courtesy. The one-piece plastic post/box combinations or any type of custom mailboxes will be replaced with our standard post and box. If you have an expensive and/or decorative mailbox and/or post, it may be worth considering the option of storing it for the winter and replacing it with an inexpensive assembly. • Winter Parking - In order to facilitate snow removal and to eliminate potential hazards, the parking of vehicles on all highways, shoulders, or within three feet of the pavement within the Town, is prohibited between the hours of 2:00am

and 7:00am from November 1st to April 15th. Vehicles in violation of this ordinance are subject to a parking ticket. Repeat violators or vehicles that prevent plowing of a street will be towed and the vehicle’s owner will be responsible for all towing and storage charges. • Driveway Clearing - Driveway maintenance is the property owner’s responsibility. When clearing your driveway of snow, the snow shall be kept on your own property. Any snow pushed, blown or plowed on to any street is a ticketable offense under both New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law and New York State Penal Law. If your driveway is plowed by a private contractor, both you (as the property owner) and the plow operator may be ticketed. Snow should be pushed to the left side of your driveway (if you are facing your house) so that when town snowplows go past your house, it will minimize the amount of snow going back into your driveway.

Conversations with Town Clerk Daniel Aman The 2019 Town & County Tax bills will be mailed during the last week of December. If you do not receive your bill by January 11, please call my office 585-784-5240 immediately so we can investigate. Your full payment or first installment is due by February 10 - HOWEVER - since that is a Sunday, any payments made on Monday, February 11 will be considered timely. As always, complete payment instructions and deadlines can be found on the reverse side of your tax bill. Installments or full payments can be made in person at Brighton Town Hall. The Clerk’s office is open Monday -

Friday from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm. If you are running late, just give me a call and we will do our best to wait for you. If you are only available after 5:00 pm, I had a convenient payment drop box installed at entrance #9 at the rear of Town Hall. This secure payment box is available 24/7. As always, payments may also be made at either of the local M&T branches (S. Clinton or Monroe Ave) in Brighton, or by mail. Tax payments made via escrow, are automatically sent a receipt of payment. Residents making payment in person at the Town Clerk’s Office leave with a receipt.

585-784-5260 • brighton.recreation@townofbrighton.org

If payment is made by mail, you will need to request a receipt. In a continuing effort to promote sustainability, and save money, we are now encouraging receipts by email. Please go to townofbrighton. org/receipts, to submit your request to have a copy of your tax receipt emailed to you. If you ever have any questions or suggestions on how we can serve you better, please do not hesitate to stop by the Clerk’s office or let me know by phone, email at daniel.aman@townofbrighton. org or @BrightonClerk on Twitter. We look forward to serving you in 2019! www.townofbrighton.org

Do you have a concern about traffic on your street or in your neighborhood? The Brighton Police Department takes complaints about traffic problems very seriously. There are a number of ways in which you can communicate your concern to the police department. You are invited to attend a monthly Public Safety Committee meeting. These meetings are held on the second Tuesday of every month in the ground floor Community Meeting Room at Town Hall. The meetings start at 8:00am. Senior staff from the police department (myself included) will be in attendance.

You can also contact me directly at (585) 784-5101 or by email mark. henderson@townofbrighton.org with your concern. Once a complaint has been received about a specific street we will use a data analytics approach to the problem. We will collect traffic data and use a number of methods to collect this data. One method involves using a covert collection device, another involves using a portable trailer that not only captures traffic data but it also delivers immediate feedback to drivers on the speed of their vehicles. We then review the data to see if there is a traffic problem and will work on a strategic approach to “calm” the traffic

problem. We will use both an education and an enforcement approach. The police department recently purchased two portable traffic signs that provide instant feedback to drivers. The signs provide a green or positive indicator for drivers operating within the speed limit and red or negative feedback for drivers exceeding the speed limit. It is the hope that drivers will be educated to drive within the speed limit of a residential street. We also deploy patrol staff to monitor and enforce the posted speed limit on residential streets.

Brighton Farmers’ Market The local food goodness continues year-round - the indoor Brighton Farmers’ Market is open all winter, from November 25 through May 5. Each Sunday afternoon farmers and producers will bring a large assortment of delicious foods to the community, including all-

local fruits, vegetables, herbs, meats, eggs, baked goods, pastas, jams, maple products, sweets, and more. Our farmers have expanded their operations to be able to grow and store crops far beyond the traditional growing season in our area, and the selection grows every year.

There is live music each week, and Color Brighton Green collects hard-to-recycle items. SNAP customers are welcome. The Market is held Sunday afternoons 1-4 pm in the Brookside Recreation Center Gym, 220 Idlewood Rd; easy access is from S. Winton between Westfall and 590.
