Brookhaven budgets $300,000 for Manorville South Street Church improvements

The Town of Brookhaven’s adopted 2026-2030 capital plan includes $300,000 for improvements at Manorville South Street Church, with the full project request assigned to 2026.

The plan identifies the project location as Manorville and associates it with Brookhaven Council District 6. Work is anticipated to begin in January 2026 and is expected to be completed in December 2026.

Work included in the capital plan

The listed improvements cover the church’s roof, doors and siding, as well as irrigation and landscaping. The project also includes miscellaneous materials and provisions for unforeseen issues that may arise during the work.

The plan’s budget detail includes $100,000 for town staffing straight time, $100,000 for town staffing overtime and $24,170 for fringe costs. It lists no impact on the operating budget.

That allocation directs town capital spending toward repairs and improvements at a Manorville community facility. The planned work addresses the building’s roof and exterior components while also covering portions of the surrounding grounds. The project could improve the site’s condition and access features, although the plan itself does not describe a final design or specify how the work will affect day-to-day use.

2026 schedule

Brookhaven’s plan treats the project as a scheduled 2026 capital improvement rather than a completed construction project. January is listed as the anticipated start month, while December is the expected completion month.

The plan does not identify a contractor or provide a more detailed construction calendar. It also does not say whether the facility will close or face access restrictions while work is underway.

Those details would determine how the project affects people who use the site during construction. The capital-plan listing establishes the budget, location, work categories and expected year of activity, but it does not establish that construction has begun, how much work has been completed or whether the schedule has changed.

For Manorville, the next dates identified in the adopted plan are the anticipated January 2026 start and expected December 2026 finish. The project remains listed under the town’s five-year capital plan, with all $300,000 requested in 2026 and no operating-budget impact recorded.
