Welcome to
the Village of Wolcott

Residents should be aware and be ready to plan accordingly for the complete but temporary closing of the Mill St "bridge". It is expected that the long awaited replacement project will begin on or about June 1st. This project should last throughout the summer. No traffic will be allowed through during construction. This includes foot traffic. We are sorry for any inconvenience but in the end we think you will find the project to be worth the wait.

Press Release: May 10, 2019
 
Wayne County Board of Supervisors’ Chairman and Sodus Town Supervisor LeRoy, Huron Town Supervisor Crane and Wolcott Town Supervisor Chatfield, pursuant to Executive Law Article 2B, have declared a State of Emergency exists for all bays in Sodus, Huron and Wolcott. 

By Emergency Order, effective Saturday, May 11, 2019 at 12:01 a.m. motorized boat traffic must operate at:
SODUS BAY – IDLE SPEED ONLY CAUSING NO WAKE WITHIN 1000 FEET of shore.
PORT BAY, EAST BAY and BLIND SODUS BAY – IDLE SPEED ONLY CAUSING NO WAKE.
Lake Ontario and Wayne County bays are reported to be at 247.9 feet. 
Although recent boat traffic has been minimal, increased boat traffic would create a hazardous situation, property damage and shore line erosion. 
Public safety concerns are floating debris and submerged obstructions usually visible, property damage and shore line erosion from high water level and motorized boat traffic wakes.
