Sloan residents will vote Aug. 17 on whether to dissolve their village government.

The Village Board picked the date during a special session Wednesday. Voting will be from noon to 9 p.m. in the Sloan Fire Hall.

Village of Williamsville officials earlier this week also decided to hold the dissolution vote there Aug. 17.

Sloan, along with Williamsville and Farnham, are the first targets of activist Kevin Gaughan's campaign to dissolve village governments here.

Farnham has not yet set a referendum date.

Gaughan has pressed for the referendums to be held on Primary Day in September, contending it would save money and draw a larger turnout.

But Sloan Mayor Leonard C. Szymanski said the board wants to put the issue to rest as soon as possible.
