Weekly News Blast: This week the public works crew continued to clear brush and trees along some town rights of way. Some residents have complained that they think it’s a waste of town time or money. But in fact, it’s all about safety. Providing clear viewing, especially at road intersections, allows drivers to spot other vehicles, pedestrians, bikers, pets, and wildlife to avoid accidents. In addition to brushing, the crew filled in the dips on 90th Street between County Road W and Griffith Avenue. Sorry to disappoint those of you who enjoyed the roller coaster ride along that road section – ha! This week’s Olympic theme of “Faster, Higher, Stronger” might not resonate with all of us, however I think it speaks to the idea of working to achieve great things. In my humble opinion the current town board has done work to uphold our charges to protect your health, safety, and welfare. It’s been a tumultuous time for our five town officers, but we will continue to think of you in harmony. Have a safe weekend, Sharon
