DEC Official to Address Community Concerns at Civic Association Meeting

The Kings Park Civic Association meets Thursday evening at 7:30.

A representative from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation will be a speaker at the Kings Park Civic Association meeting Thursday night.

The DEC rep is expected to discuss the agency’s responsibilities and enforcement procedures as well as recent community concerns regarding the east side of the Kings Park industrial area.

The DEC recently issued a warning letter to the Gesuale site on Lawrence Road, directing it to cease accepting vegetative debris and submit a plan to better manage the material already on site.

Members of the newly formed Old Northport and Lawrence Road Task Force will also be present.

Other topics include an update on the Hightower homes, the Uplands Housing Project and the Town of Smithtown’s interest in acquiring 55 acres of property at the former psych center.

The meeting will take place Thursday evening at 7:30 in room 101 of the high school. A copy of the agenda can be seen in the photo section of this article.

Apparently you are not the only one this is happening to. From what I understand if these signs areRead More on a main drag somehow they are disappearing in the middle of the night. Hmmm, now I wonder who or what organization could be doing this illegal act? I'm not going to make an educated guess who could be involverd in this deed but I think if Kings Parkers do some research they are smart enough to figure out who does not want the real facts of the "Uplands Project" to come to light. Displaying these signs is a way of making the public aware of the atrocity of this project. Questions will then be asked. Making a night run to remove them is, at the least, a cowardly act that should be publicized every time it occurs!

That's funny, I spend a small fortune for school supplies for my kids. I am also asked to buy extraRead More for the kids who don't have., which I gladly do. The "society letting kids down" comment is a little over the top!!
