Briarcliff and Tarrytown Announce Drive Thru and Walk-Up Covid-19 Test Kit Distribution – Tuesday Dec 28

BRIARCLIFF Distribution Plan

On Tuesday December 28th at 12:00 pm the Village will be conducting a distribution of its Covid-19 test kits that it received from Westchester County.

The distribution will take place in the parking lot directly adjacent to the platform tennis court and hut near Atria Senior Living. The distribution will be a drive-thru format, first-come, first-serve. Residents are asked to turn on to Van Lu Van Road (next to Post Office), pass the Youth Center and proceed down towards Atria Senior Living via Van Lu Van Road. There will be Police and Volunteers on hand to help assist drivers with traffic and queuing, which will be into three separate queuing lanes. A basic map depicting the circulation plan is pictured below. One test kit (two tests) per Village of Briarcliff Manor household will be provided until kits are exhausted. ID is required. If you pay your taxes to the Village of Briarclfif Manor, you are eligible to receive a kit – paying school taxes alone does not count as a resident.

Managing Expectations…

The Village, like many other municipalities around the county, received a limited number of tests. Approximately 230 tests will be distributed. Given that we have over 2,700 households, we expect major disappointment for many that will attend the distribution. If we receive more tests, we will of course make and plan for an additional distribution. We understand that these are incredibly hard to find right now.
