Thank You.

Fellow Residents,

A warm greeting to all.  I may fall short of words and gratitude for the opportunity I have received as the Mayor of our wonderful Village for a second term.  I extend my sincere thanks to my family, and friends, and supporters who have trust in me to carry on the work of Mayor for a second term.  Thanks to our great team, we have caught up on all overdue fiscal reports, currently working on signing the final completion of our water project.  Working with the state to complete the grant applications for payments for the water project, which was slowed down due to COVID 19, and working with the county to be more environmentally friendly.  Once again I want to thank our great Fire and Ambulance Volunteer team who serves us so well.  Our Gilbertsville Library, who supports the Village in so many ways, and our Village Improvement Society which strives to make our Village a wonderful place to live.  I also want to thank the Majors Inn, the Art Galleries' and businesses and churches in our community, that bring such uniqueness to our Village.  Once again thank you to everyone and be safe.

Holiday Message

 

Veterans Day Message

 Gilbertsville has a strong reputation for always honoring, remembering respecting and thanking our veterans and their families for their continued sacrifices and ultimate sacrifices they have made in the name of freedom.  

During this time of the pandemic, I encourage our residents to show, in their own way, their appreciation to our veterans who have put their lives on the line to protect our country's freedoms.

It is our veterans who have made our United States of America the greatest nation in the world.  We are the future of hope, strength, and Democracy thanks to our Veterans.

Thank you Gilbertsville Veterans and all Veterans and their families.

Respectfully

Mayor Mark Muller

LAST DAYS for Leaf Pick Up NOV. 6 - 3:00 pm

 As temperatures fall, so do the leaves!  Our Leaf Pick Up Program for 2020 is ending.  Friday November 6^th at 3:00 pm is the last pick up. 

One of the traditions that we wanted to keep is our neighborhood trick or treat.  We are so happy that our children were able to dress up and enjoy this Halloween tradition.   We also want to thank everyone, and the participating residents that followed our safety protocols, in addition to following the state and county’s guidelines for social distancing, wearing masks and small gatherings of people.   

 Guess Who??  (Chris S.)

As always, thank you for your continued support of the Village and all our local businesses and organizations. The only way we can continue to get through these difficult times is by supporting and standing up for each other.  

Halloween in Gilbertsville 2020

The survey is in, and I want to thank everyone who participated.   

 

See entire survey here:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-59WZDJWP7/

There is much discussion, and we are being asked by numerous people whether or not the Village is canceling Halloween in Gilbertsville. We are not.

In an attempt to make Halloween fun and safe...

Here's what we ask:

1. We ask that you consider wearing a mask (not the Halloween kind) if interacting closely with others.
2. Do not leave bowls of candy on your porch that multiple people will touch.

 

1. If you are uncomfortable with handing out candy, please do not turn on your porch light. Additionally, there is a printable page available to print (PDF) letting trick-or-treaters know you are not participating.
2. If you are uncomfortable with your children trick-or-treating, it is always your choice as a parent not to send them. 
3. We encourage everyone to practice social distancing to the extent possible...and IT IS possible when you're walking around outdoors.
4. Enjoy Halloween. Be safe. We can participate in trick-or-treating while still taking necessary precautions and respecting the concerns and decisions of others who may not be comfortable participating.

Halloween trick-or-treat hours for the Village of Glbertsville are from 5-7 p.m. on Saturday, October 31.
