CodeRED Alerts: We are finding, with the need to notify residents of emergency situations in the Village, that not all people have access to a computer for Facebook or the website. Because of this, we are planning to use the Columbia County 911 as a means to notify people through home telephone or cell phone alerts. This would require people to either go online at www.columbiacounty911.com/codered.html to sign-up for alerts or to sign up at the annual Columbia County Fair at the Columbia County 911 Booth. If you are unable to access a computer or get to the Fair, forms will be available at the Village Clerk’s window and we can process the forms online for you. Please contact Debra Meyers, Village Clerk, with questions at moc.m1503084616ahtah1503084616cfoeg1503084616alliv1503084616@srey1503084616emd1503084616.
Some area residents and Planning and Zoning Board Members have, over the past year, created and submitted proposed zoning changes for the Village of Chatham. We have attached seven (7) recommended revisions for your review. We do not have an existing colored zoning map for a comparison, however, you can look under “Community” on our website and see an interactive map that will do a lay-over of the zones as they exist now. We will be planning a Public Hearing in the next few months for Village of Chatham residents to express any concerns, questions, or issues.

We have learned something new about the outdoor water meters. If you reach 999.9 gallons, the meter will reset itself. Please either send a picture of the meter reading or bring it to me to reset. We are in a learning process and attempting to work out the kinks. Sorry for the inconvenience of this new system. You can always feel free to contact the office about this new turn of events.
We are happy to announce our latest update to the Village of Chatham website. If you go to “Community”, you will find a link to our new Interactive Map. This map shows places of interest, municipal buildings, parks, schools, etc. You can also look to see what “Zone” a particular area rests in by clicking on “Zoning”. You have several options to choose, from historic to commercial and everything in-between.
The Village of Chatham has a new vendor for garbage and recycling pick-up. County Waste was awarded the contract to be our vendor from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2018.
For the most part, you should not see significant changes in service with pick-up day continuing to be on Wednesdays between 7 and 1.
One change will be the use of recycling totes that will be provided by County Waste. They will drop off totes at all properties on Tuesday and Wednesday, July 5 and 6. If you do not receive one, please call the Village Clerk’s Office at 392-5821 and we will get one to you. The use of the totes is not mandatory but is recommended.
Another change is that there will only be one truck that makes the rounds through the Village, picking up both garbage and recycling at the same time. The truck will have two compartments, so that garbage and recycling are kept separate in the truck.
