The Cheektowaga Town Board approved several resolutions from the consent agenda and separate resolutions after discussion.
The board adopted a local hotel occupancy (bed) tax, recorded in the meeting packet as Local Law intro No. 6 of 2025 and announced as Local Law 4 of 2025 upon adoption; the clerk said the law "shall take effect upon filing with the Secretary of State." Supervisor Brian Nowak and council members discussed Buffalo's adoption as a nearby example.
The board approved sealed bids solicitation for acceptance and disposal of the town’s solid waste for calendar years 2026–2030 after a vote to waive rules and add the late filing to the agenda. The board also approved Resolution 2025‑762 to replace one PTAC unit at the Cheektowaga Senior Center at a cost of $4,138.46 by contractor John Danforth (Tonawanda).
On land‑use, the board affirmed continued development of the Emerald Garden Subdivision (phase 5, eight lots) and amended a geographic description in the resolution (changed reference from "east" to "west" of Towers Boulevard); the resolution carried after amendment.
The board reviewed a private battery energy storage proposal for 3695 Bridal (a closed Class 4 New York State Superfund site) and declared a negative declaration for the local environmental review record in the packet. Councilmembers then moved to table Resolution 2025‑761 to allow a sponsor change and additional review before final action.
Clerk communications noted three notices of claim received by the town clerk’s office. The board concluded public business and adjourned.
