WHITESTOWN - The New York State Department of Transportation has scheduled a public information meeting to discuss the proposed paving project for State Routes 5A and 69 in the town of Whitestown, Oneida County. 

The meeting will be held on Thursday, November 20, at 7 p.m. in the library of the Parkway School, located at 65 Oriskany Boulevard, Whitesboro, New York.   Department engineers will be available at 6:30 p.m. for participants who may have questions prior to the start of the formal public information meeting. 

The purpose of this meeting is to provide the public, local businesses and elected officials with information regarding the proposed project and to give everyone an opportunity to review and comment on the department’s proposed design plans.
