The Town of Delhi Playground continues to be closed as we are waiting for a required Safety Compliance Inspection Report to be performed by Parkitect for our insurance company.  Once this is received, the town will hold a grand opening celebration.

During extreme weather conditions, like the intense heat we experienced last week, NYSGEG monitors their substation equipment. The current demand for energy + high temperatures puts additional stress on the system in the county. You can help by conserving power as much as you can.

You can do this by not running major appliances until after 8 pm, turning off lights when you leave a room, turning up the thermostat by a few degrees, and ensuring your AC filters are clean and clear.
