LaBella Associates (LaBella) was engaged by the Town of Shandaken to prepare a Relocation
Feasibility Study for the existing Town Hall complex. The March 2023 Shandaken Town
Complex Flood Mitigation Retrofit Feasibility Study identified the challenges associated with
the current site, which primarily constituted risk of flood damage. The report recommended
immediate measures including removing the fueling station and other hazardous material from
the current site. Additional recommendations were included but were considered interim
measures until the town could construct a new town hall at a dry location. Relocation of the
physical town hall building is not considered cost effective at this time, and relocation of the
highway garage is not feasible due to the manner in which the building is constructed. The
complex is currently located at 7209 Route 28 in Shandaken, NY, and consists of 4 separate
parcels
