The Red Hook wastewater treatment plant reported several environmental violations over the past months, including overflow events and elevated fecal coliform levels. Residents expressed concerns regarding the mayor's lack of transparency and ongoing odor issues.

Despite the violations, the Village plans to expand the plant's capacity significantly. The mayor acknowledged the need for improved communication with residents and outlined plans for operational improvements and upgrades to address design flaws. A community meeting is scheduled for March 5 to discuss expansion details.
