1. Town board to discuss possible tax cap override

Tonight’s town board meetings is preceded by a public hearing at which board members will discuss potentially overriding the 2 percent property-tax cap limit set by Gov. Cuomo. The town can easily skirt the limit with three votes enacting a local law. First the board must hold a public hearing on the proposed law, scheduled for tonight at 7:30 p.m. On the meeting agenda is a presentation from Assemblyman Robert Castelli on his “tour of the towns,” and a presentation from state Sen. Greg Ball about a veteran’s hall of fame in the 40th district.

5. Rainbeau Ridge cooking classes open for registration

Better hurry—some are already closed. But a few tantalizing options are open with an impressive roster of instructors: including Gluten Free Gourmet with Eric Gabrynowicz, chef at the impossible-to-get-a-table Restaurant North, Chopped, with Lauren Braun Costello, author and food stylist, and Easiest Thanksgiving Ever, wiht Rainbeau Ridge’s own Nicki Sizemore. I’ve taken a class there with Iron Horse Grill Chef Philip McGrath; you can learn a lot because classes are small, plus, you get to eat what you cook.
