Long Island Memories
^ ^ f c P * ^ SERVING BETHPAGE, January 28 - February 3, 2005 une Proudly L BETHPAGE, ISLAND TREES, OLD BETHPAGE, PLAINVIEW, SEAFORD AND PLAINEDGE FORTY CENTS Bethpage Continues Battle For Stewart Avenue Light By Linda Mangano While this subject is extremely difficult to write about I feel as though something needs to be said now. As the community of Bethpage has had to face the aftermath of yet another tragic accident on our roadways this November, we need to take strong and swift action to try our best to insure that this never happens again. Yet, I ask myself how can we prevent this from shattering the lives of another family? Do we need more lights on Stewart Avenue ? Do we need speed bumps, stop signs or speed indicators ? Well let me start by saying that in my opinion we do need another traffic light on Stewart Avenue. The stretch of roadway is far to open and allows for drivers of all ages to accelerate to a higher rate of speed before they come in contact with another traffic light. Yet I think that in conjunction with this traffic light we need something more. We need to change the mindset of our young drivers and we need to change it fast. History has repeated itself in Bethpage. Just a short while • ago the young and promising lives of three Bethpage boys were lost. Their families were left never to be the same. We all witnessed this community come together. And we all tried our best to comfort those most effected and heal their hearts. And yet in spite of that loss and tragedy, in spite of wristbands and bumper stickers, which were supposed to remind us of that loss, we were forced to face it once again with the loss of two more children. While newspapers and television broadcasts have deemed Stewart Avenue as a lethal stretch of roadway I believe it is also a lethal frame of mind. It is a lethal notion to think that anyone can travel at a high speed and yet be able to control a car. We need to talk to each and every student of our school district, from the elementary level through the high school level. We need to educate them . as to the dangers of speed as well as the safety precautions which need to be taken when driving a car. We need to show them driving footage and pictures of accidents and perhaps everyone should be mandated to take a defensive driving course so that we can finally ' drive' the message home. I truly believe that we need another light on Stewart Avenue. But we need the additional light along with something else and that something else is education! It has to start in the minds of our children and much in the same way as we preach that drugs, alcohol and smoking are lethal we too must preach that a car is a weapon and that when someone sits behind the wheel of an automobile they need to be cautious and mind full of the dangers as well as responsibility that they have when putting their foot to the gas pedal and turning that ignition key. Maybe we need to have a car placed on the High School lawn. Maybe that is the reminder that we all need, adults as well, because adults are certainly not exempt, You would think that the faces and smiles of the children we have lost in this community would be a haunting and never fading reminder. Yet we were wrong. We can't be wrong again. We need another light on Stewart Avenue and we need to educate EVERYONE as to the dangers, responsibility and hazards of driving a car. If we do all that then perhaps we can say that we tried our hardest to prevent another tragedy from ( Continued on Page 7) BUZZARD 05! It's ' Snow Wonder' thatBretton's Deli was open for business at 6AM on Sunday morning. It's clear that the Blizzard of 2005 didn't have these dedicated deli guys " loafing" around. mmm^ '* Wi\:*- 7>'<*! While everyone raced to the supermarkets for, you guessed it, milk and bread, huge piles of snow made life difficult for shoppers and shopping carts alike. Mother Nature certainly gave us her best one- two punch with this weekend's blizzard.. Although estimates around the Island vary, forecasters believe that the Bethpage area was hit with nearly 16 inches of fluffy white snow. And not only was Long Island forced to deal with blinding hours of snowfall, we were also treated to an Arctic-blast of freezing temps which made staying indoors the smart way to deal with the Blizzard of 2005. The streets of Broadway, and Stewart Avenue looked almost cloudlike as high winds and blowing snow made for zero visibility. At times, wind gusts were said to have hit the 50mph mark, which created drifts that were nearly 3 feet tall. Although this was our first " BIG" snou/ all, the Farmers Almanac calls for significant snowfall in our region from mid February to early March. So it seems that we are in for a long and cold winter. My advice is stock up on the hot chocolate and long Johns!

Well, our fighting men in Afghanistan and Iraq are not issued certain things by the government. Here are some of the things they can use: Q- Tips, gum, tic tacs, underwear ( Long John's), hot packs - hand warmers, zip lock bags, desenex, murine for the eyes, phone cards, heavy socks. This stuff does not ' come under the G. I. issue. If you remember another song that Lou Monte sang about George Washington, when he sang " Martha made some pizza pies and now they are cold as ice, we can sell them to the Indians at only half the price. And then he said No Tenga Nuton which means in Italian I have no underwear" so even George Washington did not get issued certain needed commodities. So if you intend to send a package over to our fighting men here are some good ideas of what to send. Our county level VFW will make up packages with these items for the comfort of our fighting men. Any help from our local people of course will help immensely. In the case that you would like to send an item, it can be turned over to our Butehom Bros. Post and the county level would get it and forward it on. The Bethpage Post meets on every 2nd and 4th Tuesday at the Police Boys Club on Stewart Ave. and Central. It is the second building after the police booth, and they meet at 8 PM. Our community has always responded well to help in any way they can. All us old soldiers are very proud of our community people. It always brings back memories of Joan Poppe. May she rest in peace. Letter To The Editor Hello Linda, How many nights have parents been faced with children who spike a high fever late at night, or fall off their bed and break an arm, or suffer from an unusual rash? They call their pediatrician, who gives them advice over the phone, but, if they need urgent care - it means a trip to the ER. Not anymore. Dr. Jeffrey Schor, Pediatric Emergency Expert, has created a new solution called PM Pediatrics. The facility is staffed with Pediatric Emergency Specialists, stocked with state of the art equipment sized for children 0- 21 yrs ( including digital radiology system) and is all set in child friendly ocean- front resort thematic design complete with live fish, digital entertainment and " under the sea" exam rooms. PM Pediatrics is open 365 days a year with hours with compliment the primary pediatrician: 5PM-Midnight Mon- Fri. Noon- Midnight Weekends and Holidays. Attached is a release covering PM Pediatrics. If you are interested in visiting the facility and interviewing Dr. Schor please contact me at 917- 592- 1313. Best Regards, Mindy Germain Partner G& M Communications vicmindy@ optonline. net Dear Bethpage Community Residents: The Bethpage Board of Education would like to provide an opportunity for interested community residents to participate in this year's budget development process. This process will begin in February and conclude with the adoption of the proposed budget by the Board in April. There are two opportunities to participate. All community residents are invited to attend our regular Board of Education meetings. At these meetings, the Board will discuss the various budget areas. In addition, this year the Board is forming a Budget Advisory Committee. The ideal committee will be made up of no more than 20- 23 residents who represent the various constituencies of our community. This includes residents without children, as well as parent representatives who will be chosen by the PTA. This committee will meet immediately after the regular Board budget meetings. There will be approximately four meetings planned that should be no longer than two hours in duration. This committee will be moderated by a Board member. The Administration will be in attendance to review the entire budget. Discussion and questions will be encouraged. Ultimately, the task of this committee is to provide a more detailed level of input to the Board, so that the proposed budget will be supported by the community in May. If you are interested in participating as a member of the Budget Advisory Committee, please call Marlene Jannotta in the Superintendent's Office at 644- 4001, or Cindy Morris in the Assistant Superintendent for Business' Office at 644- 4030. The Board of Education will choose the committee from the volunteers and contact you. If you are interested, please call no later than Friday, February 4. We look forward to a productive and inclusive budget process. Thank you. Sincerely, Tom Frost, President Board of Education Online With Mary McCaffery Patriotism Fueled By Courage In an era when military service is clearly more dangerous than it has been in the past, two young men from Bethpage - 2004 graduates of our high school - enlisted in the United States Army. Pvt. 1st Class Adam Drobecker - trained with the 82nd Airborne and is currently stationed at Fort Benning in Georgia awaiting orders. Pvt. Eddie Chester graduated from Fort Jackson AIT where he learned to repair Blackhawk helicopters. He is currently stationed at Fort Eustis in Virginia awaiting orders. Whether inspired by the assault on America on September 11, 2001 or patriotism instilled in them by their families and deepened through their studies in school, these fine young men have the courage to face the enormous challenges inherent in military service. They are committed to " be all that they can be" and to achieve that goal through service to our country. God bless them both and keep them safe. Kudos For TOB Snow Removal by Councilwoman Mary McCaffery From the women in the " War Room" handling the phone bank to the men manning the plows, the staff of the Highway Departments, Sanitation and support secretarial staff did a tremendous job over the past weekend - clearing our streets and responding to emergency situations and inquiries about the plowing. Deputy Commissioner Richard Betz and his well- trained staff responsible for removing the snow from 800 miles of roads and handling residents' complaints were on duty 24/ 7 from 2: 00 PM on Sunday through late Monday afternoon. This round- the- clock service is typical of the dedicated men and women working in various capacities throughout the Town. Residents can help in the snow removal. ( 1) Park your car( s) in your driveway ( 2) When shoveling your driveway, pile the snow on the left side so that when the plow comes through, they won't push all the shoveled snow back Councilwoman McCaffery visited the " War Room" where residents' complaints/ requests were duly written down and responded to. In emergency situations, the request for plowing is radioed to the nearest worker. In other situations, the questions/ complaint is written down and will be addressed as soon as the snow emergency is over. As I was leaving, Terry said, " This man is calling to say ' thank you ' Several of the other women also had thank you calls from thoughtful and grateful residents - a note would be nice also. Running Club Presents Check to Bretton Bowl Pictured here, Gary Bretton ( C) accepts the check from Carter, DeLuca, Farrell & Schmidt Ho Ho Ho Holiday Run Co- Directors Joe Sturgess ( L) and Bob Sherman ( R). Among the highlights of the January 18 meeting of the Greater Long Island Running Club was the presentation of a check in the amount of $ 1500 to the Bretton Bowl Fund. The donation to the Bretton Bowl Fund came from the net proceeds of the 2004 Carter, DeLuca, Farrell & Schmidt Ho Ho Ho Holiday Run that was held on the roads of Bethpage in December of 2004. Bretton Bowl President Gary Bretton was on hand at the meeting to accept the check. This is the 16th consecutive year of the partnership between the Running Club and the Bretton Bowl. In addition to the Bretton Bowl Fund, other beneficiaries of the 2004 Bethpage Run included The Tender Loving Care Foundation for neonatal care and the Maurer Foundation for Breast Health Education. Carbon Monoxide Incident Injures Three Residents Not Too Late to Have Flu Shots On Thursday, Jan. 20, 2005 at 7: 48 am, Bethpage fire dispatcher Larry Krummenacker received a call from the resident at 13 Silber Ave. reporting " smoke in the house." The Bethpage Volunteer Fire Department was immediately alerted. Third Assistant Chief Dale Schultz arrived within minutes and announced that there was smoke coming from the chimney. This appeared to be an oil burner emergency. First Assistant Chief Greg Patsos arrived and assumed command. A search of the house indicated dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide ( 300- 500 parts per million). The three occupants of the house complained of headache and dizziness; the classic symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. Chief Patsos requested an ambulance to respond forthwith. Firefighters proceeded to ventilate the house in an effort to expel the dangerous gases. The homeowner said they were awakened by the SMOKE detector, even though they also have a carbon monoxide detector. Smoke had already banked down about half way from the ceiling. These occupants were lucky to have awakened as most carbon monoxide deaths occur while the victims sleep. The three family members - a 36 year old male, a 68 year old female and a 67 year old male - were transported via Bethpage Fire Dept. ambulance to Nassau University Medical Center for possible treatment in their hyperbaric chamber. Assistant Chief Schultz took this opportunity to caution residents of Bethpage to check their carbon monoxide detectors and heating system. The most common source of carbon monoxide problems is the home's hearing system. Assistant Chief Patsos thanked the 25 volunteers who responded to this emergency in the frigid weather. There were no firefighter injuries reported. With hospital emergency rooms reporting heavy numbers of flu and flu- like illnesses, the Nassau County Department of Health reminds residents that it is not too late to get a flu shot. With the majority of Nassau County physicians reporting that their patients, 65 and over, and those in the high priority groups have been vaccinated, Nassau County is now recommending vaccine for all residents, ages 50 and over, and household contacts and caretakers of all individuals in the high priority groups. This recommendation is in keeping with the revised guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC) and the New York State Department of Health. " In Nassau County we continue to hear some residents who say they have not been able to get vaccinated or that it is too late in the season for vaccination," said Dr. David Ackman, Commissioner of Health. " Typically, flu season peaks in February and continues into early spring. We encourage those residents aged 50 and over and those who care for, or live with, the high priority groups to ask their health care providers for the protection the flu vaccine offers." Nassau County is continuing to distribute additional supplies of vaccine when available to Nassau County physicians for their patients. An additional 5,000 doses are expected later in January. Any physician who still needs to obtain vaccine can call the Health Department and be put on a list pending receipt of the vaccine. In addition, the department is providing flu vaccine to hospitals, nursing homes and long term care residential facilities to meet their needs. To date, since the shortage was announced in October, Nassau County has provided over 65,500 doses of vaccine to providers and the public. Health care providers in need of flu vaccine should contact the Nassau County Department of Health weekdays from 9: 00 AM - 4: 30 PM at 571- 3345.

Their season ended January 10th. Coach Paul Dorney led our developmental 4th grade team. The fifth and sixth grade squads were coached by Walter Wierzbowski and Jim Hosford, respectively. The teams finished in fine fashion and should do very well in the coming years. Special thanks to the girls' coaches for doing an outstanding job. The players also made major strides as team players and showed great sportsmanship. Also, thanks to the fans, parents and guardians who take the children to practice and games and supported the girls throughout the season. Coach Jim Hosford's St. Martin's sixth- grade girls were proudly represented by Megan Hosford, Aileen Pendergast, Julianne Tiemey, Stephanie Ross, Katie McGowen, Nicole Saitta, Rebecca Hipp, Teresa Luti and Ariana Ambrosio. Wierzbowski's fifth- graders finished 7- 5, winning four of their last five games. The team jelled at the end of the season - just missing the playoffs. The back court duo of the two Danielles' - Brusca and Bergersen led the team during the season. The girls played better each games. Casey Wierzbowski, Samantha Mercurio, Amanda Castaneda and Melanie Santangelo excelled on both ends of the court chipping in with scoring or making key assists or rebounds. Other key contributors for the crew included Christina Wing, Michelle Nendza, Breanna Black and Sarah Brandwein. Coach Wierzbowski was aided by assistant Tom Brusca, who brought energy and experience to the team. The St. Martin Girl's basketball teams should do very well next year after their fine opening season. The St. Martin Boys season continues for the fourth through eighth grade. The two fourth grade boys' teams are playing excellent basketball in their latest games. Coach Tom McManus and Coach Charlene DeCastro are doing terrific jobs with their novice teams. McManus' crew is led by Danny Ligowski's play making and the strong rebounding and solid passing of Mark Vasco. Other key stand outs include Connor McEllineys strong defense and the consistent good efforts by Justin Sabella, Ryan McManus, Sean Ryan, Tim Wakely, Chris DeMarco and Jonathan Gordon. Our other 4th grade squad is also learning the fundamentals of team play which bodes well for next season. Coach DeCastro has several ball handlers she can count on including: Eric Bergersen, Trevor McDonald, Chuck Hoffman, Mike Jacovelli and Johnny " G" Giannuzzi. The rebounding is controlled by Kevin DeCastro, Dylan Crotty, Tyler Walsh, Zachary Licht and Kevin Danglo. Teamwork and solid defense is becoming the trademark of both teams. At the fifth grade level our two squads are coached by Dan Gerber and Gregg Tracy, respectively. Playoffs start at fifth grade level and will begin in late February for this grade and above. The two fifth-grade teams are vying for a one of the three playoff spots in each division. Gerber's record stands at 3- 3. His crew is led by Joey Schultheis, Chris Antanucci and Matt Zuk at guard. Nick Gerber, Chris Seiter, Anthony Bilardi are major contributors on both ends of the court with sharp passing, scoring and rebounding. Other effective players for the squad are newcomers Tom Stratford and Mike Dunphy. Tracy's " Blue" Fifth graders have 4- 2 record. Nicholas Pompanyo has been steady at the point. At the wings are Danny Chillianis and Joey Walsh. They provide scoring from the backcourt and help Pompanyo direct the offense. Troy Tracy and Justin Rohr are versatile players. Both play guard or forward for coach Tracy. The backbone of the defense is led by front court players Paul Bitetti, Frank Camidge and Zack Lestrange. With the 2nd half of the season just starting, look for both 5th- grade squads to make a run for a playoff spot. Lou Mayr's 6th grade squad is 4- 3 and in the thick of the playoff race. Ed Conway's " Blue" sixth is 4- 3 and are playing their best ball of the season. The seventh grade is represented by three teams.

Vinnie Volpe nailed six baskets in the second contest. After being out for a long stretch with a cast, Luti was back with the team. With a balanced attack and a full compliment of players the " Blue" squad extended their record to 8- 0 and is in first place. Kyle Tracy has been outstanding all season. He leads the team in scoring and rebounding and has shut down the opponent's top big man time and again. Jesse Signa has aided the impressive run with stellar defense against the opponent's top player and adding solid passing and shooting. Scott Jackson is beginning to get comfortable in the offense. Jackson's soft jump shot should help during the second half. Another key player has been Ryan Alford. He has been terrific in all facets of the game. His solid play will be missed as he is trying to overcome a knee injury. He'll be needed for the playoffs. Coach Larry Reilly's 7th grade " Gold" team is vastly improved from a year ago. They are also fighting for a playoff spot. Anthony Santorelli has stepped up his play at the point and is getting all players the basketball. Jordan Mayr, Tom Rallis and James Constantine are benefitting from Santorelli's passes by scoring often. Chris Romanelli and Conor Reilly man the center position in different ways. Romanelli has been taking players to the basket to score while Reilly is dishing off to open teammates out of the post. Conner McGuigan and Will Bergersen have been playing guard and forward for coach Reilly. Bergersen, has been sorely missed. During a stretch of three games he was not able to attend two and was only 60% for the third. With Bergersen back at 100% and the improved team play, the " Gold" Seventh should be able to make a playoff drive. Not to be overlooked for Reilly's squad is the major improvement of John McGlynn - especially on the boards and on defense. If the playoffs were to start today, Coach Dan McGrath's " White" squad would be in. The " White" Warriors are 5- 3 and playing their best ball of the year. The crew is led by the trio of Nick Vasco, Orlando Castaneda and Brendan Carr. They provide the leadership and scoring for McGrath's team. Fabio Gambino and Andrew Klein have been stepping up their play in each games. Dillon Lyle and Tim Bettancourt provide strong perimeter defense, while Nick Murphy and Alex Vietheer have been solid off the bench. Andy Haugen and Tom Grillea have been doing a great job with our two eighth- grade squads. Both are trying to establish the running game to help make a push to the playoffs. Look for more reports on our two sixth and two eighth grade teams in next week's article along with the playoff drives of all our other St. Martin's Boys teams. n v w ^ ^ ^ w , , , , L • • • • • • • • i.

We have been denied a traffic light on Stewart Avenue and Beverly Road many times before at the request of Legislator Mangano. I am well aware of the expense in erecting a traffic light as well as the studies, which need to be conducted in order to determine if a light is needed. To that I plainly say that the price tag of a traffic signal doesn't compare to the price tag of a human life and quite frankly instead of conducting these elaborate traffic studies perhaps what needs to be studied are the faces of those lost which can be found along the telephone poles on Stewart Avenue. Published in this week's edition of the Tribune are the letters from Legislator Edward Mangano requesting a light as well as the denials from the Department of Public Works. These letters date back to 1999. Upon receiving another UGRENT request from Mangano, there is yet another study underway to determine if in fact we will be granted the light at the above mentioned location. The Commissioner of Public Works has reported to Legislator Mangano that we can expect to see improvements along that roadway sometime in the spring. It is our hope that his request will be granted although Legislator Mangano has stated that if the light is not erected this spring that he will not give up but instead will fight harder to see that a light is finally erected. Mangano is presently organizing a Citizen's Advisory Committee to review the findings of the present study being conducted by the Department of Public Works. All those interested in participating please contact Legislator Ed Mangano at 516- 571- 6217. btUMMMMM* MMMMMMMMM* MMWMMl ''¥*}')>} f}.

The survey, which is based upon criteria established in the " New York State Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices", took into account all activity at the location and a review of accident data for a three- year period. In addition, a review of this data by a team of traffic engineering specialists was made for final evaluation. Sight distance is good, and there were no observed problems during the time of their survey. Side street and left turn traffic volumes arc considered minimal. Gaps were present, and the accident records dating back to January of 1996 were reviewed and did not indicate a problem correctable by installing a traffic signal. Physical coverage is provided for this location, and the crossing guard was observed doing an exceptional job in crossing the children. A radar speed study was also conducted at this location v hich did indicate that some motorists were traveling above the posted speed limit. By copy o. this letter, to include copies of our speed study, we will contact Inspector William F. Gutersloh, lommanding Officer of the Nassau County Police Department's Traffic Safety Unit, to monitor nis location for whatever action is deemed necessary. Although motorists in this area were noted traveling above the posted speed limit of 30 MPH, there were adequate gaps in traffic to allow for all turning movements safely. Please be advised that a traffic signal is not designed to stop speeding motorists. In fact, installing a traffic signal at a location such as this could have the reverse effect Motorists may accelerate in order to make the signal so as not to be delayed. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that a traffic signal is not recommended at this time. Thank you for your concerns for traffic safety. ye ry truly yours, \ j j h n M. Waltz, P. E.

I am once again writing you to reconsider the traffic engineering decision regarding the above referenced traffic signal request. I respectfully request that the intersection be reviewed in light of the increasing number of traffic accidents that have occurred in the vicinity since the traffic survey dated 1/ 28/ 2000. The most recent accident resulted in a fatality on August 23, 2000. I strongly believe a traffic light is warranted along this well traveled roadway. The reasons are well explained in Mr. & Mrs. John Zaboras's letter and petition, which I have enclosed for your review. Thank you for your consideration and cooperation in this most important matter.

The survey, which is based upon criteria established in the " New York State Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices", took into account all activity at the location and a review of accident data for a three- year period. In addition, a review of this data by a team of traffic engineering specialists was made for final evaluation. Sight distance is good, and there were no observed problems during the time of their survey. Side street as well as left turn traffic volumes arc considered minimal. Gaps were present in the opposing traffic flow, and accident records dating back to January of 1996 were reviewed and did not indicate a problem correctable by installing a traffic signal. The accident involving the unfortunate and tragic death of a 19 year old male mentioned in your letter was also reviewed. That report indicated speeding on a wet road as a contributing factor involving this fatality. A traffic signal could not have prevented this type of accident. In addition, physical coverage is provided for this location and the crossing guard was observed doing an excellent job in crossing the children. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that a traffic signal is not recommended at this time. A radar speed study was also conducted at this location which did indicate that some motorists were traveling above the posted speed limit. By copy of this memo, including copies of our speed study, we will contact Inspector Palmer Tagle, Commanding Officer of the Nassau County Police Department's Eighth Precinct, to monitor this location for whatever action is deemed necessary.

Previous correspondence to this office had requested a traffic investigation at the intersection of Stewart Avenue and Beverly Avenue. As a result, we have found the problem to be a few blocks north of Beverly Avenue at the intersection of Maple Avenue. The investigation found that adequate advance warning exists for a curve in the roadway. However, guide signing through the curve could be upgraded. Therefore, we have prepared a work order to improve curve guide signing for both northbound and southbound traffic at this location. The signs will be installed as our workload permits.

Gcrbnsi, Commissioner Department of Public Works Daniel J. Me Cloy, Senior Fiscal/ Legal Advisor Nassau County Legislature DATE: November 19, 2004 SUBJECT: Stewart Avenue and Beverly Road, Bellipage I am bringing to your attention a concern raised several limes over the past few years by Legislator Edward P. Mangano ( L. D. 17) regarding Stewart Avenue in the vicinity of Beverly Road in the hamlet of Bethpage. This location has been the scene of several serious accidents with fatalities. Two of these accidents have resulted in multiple fatalities, one occurring approximately one year ago, resulting in the death of three people. The most recent fatal accident occurred just this week, resulting in the death of two young people; one of the youngsters killed was Legislator Mangano's niece. However, previous to these two accidents, in a letter of December 6, 1999 ( copy enclosed) Legislator Mangano asked for the placement of a traffic light at this location. This request was denied. The Legislator renewed this request in a letter dated August 28, 2002 written after a fatal accident ( copy enclosed). Thereafter, in a letter dated March 23, 2003 ( copy enclosed), Legislator Mangano again requested the installation of a traffic light at this location for the third time. Each of these requests were met with a response by your department which indicated that the location did not warrant the placement of a traffic signal and none was placed at that location. Obviously, this most recent accident has been a personal tragedy for Legislator Mangano's family leaving them devastated. Legislator Mangano has asked me to write to you, on his behalf, as this tragedy again illustrates the need for action to be taken by the County in this area to help prevent additional fatal accidents. Legislator Mangano is asking that you have your department rethink the refusal to place a traffic signal at this location. Clearly, there is a traffic condition that requires attention when multiple accidents and several deaths occur in the same stretch of road over such a short period of lime. While traffic volume entering Stewart Avenue may not be high at all times, Legislator Mangano believes that consideration must be given to other concerns beyond traffic entering this roadway. Because of the configuration of the road, there is a sizable stretch of straight road leading into a curve. Drivers gain speed on the straight road and fail, as in the case of the car carrying his niece, to be able to negotiate the curve. By placing a traffic signal on the straight part of the roadway, likely at Beverly Road, drivers would slow down and enter the curve at a safer speed. On behalf of Legislator Mangano, please have your department review this location and take the necessary steps to make this location one of greater safety. If you need any additional information concerning this request please feel free to contact Legislator Mangano at 16217 or me at 1- 4077. Thank you for your consideration of this request. Very truly yours, Daniel J. McCloy Senior Legal/ Financial Advisor Nassau County Legislature lUff A Big smiles could be found, even on this friendly snow man, as kids everywhere took advantage of some fun in the snow! To: From: Date: NASSAU COUNTY Inter- Departmental Memo Nassau County Legislature Attn: Daniel J. McCloy- Senior Legal/ Financial Advisor Department of Public Works January 13,2005 Subject: Stewart Avenue and Beverly Road, Bethpage This memo is in response to your recent memo regarding concerns at the above referenced intersection. As you know, as a result of previous inquiries from the Honorable Edward P. Mangano, Legislator, and local residents, this office has conducted surveys at this and several other intersections in the area. Some of our previous studies resulted in the installation of new traffic signals ( i. e. Cherry Avenue at Kunen/ Bethpage High School driveway), the modification of existing traffic controls ( i. e., South Oyster Bay Road at Stewart Avenue), and/ or notifications to other agencies ( i. e., Police, Town, etc.) for action outside of DPW jurisdiction. Other studies found that certain traffic controls were not warranted. We are aware of the tragic accidents that have occurred along this roadway. Unfortunately, these accidents were a direct result of excessive speed. As we have discussed, certain traffic controls, including traffic signals, are not intended to control speed. Traffic signals are intended to control right- of- way. The misapplication of traffic signals has been proven to increase accident rates and may even result in increased speeding when drivers accelerate to " beat the light". Therefore, this Department is very careful in the decision making process relative to the installation of new traffic signals and traffic control devices in general. In an effort to again address the renewed concerns regarding the continued improvement of safety on this roadway and at the request of your office, this Department will be initiating a comprehensive study of the entire Stewart Avenue corridor. Our study will involve a great deal of data collection and will include a review of a wide range of potential improvements. Our study will, of course, include analyses to determine the need for additional signals in this area including Stewart Avenue and Beverly Road. However, these analyses will take into account not only conditions at one particular intersection, but conditions throughout the corridor. We believe our plan to review the entire area in a comprehensive, coordinated manner is much more beneficial than continued isolated studies at individual intersections. The comprehensive study that we are initiating will ultimately result in the placement of the most appropriate traffic controls to address the unique characteristics of this area. Our data collection efforts will begin in January. Given the number of intersections included in the study area and the traffic count data that we require at each, we anticipate data collection to continue through February. Leaving time to analyze the data and evaluate proposed improvements, we anticipate our final report to be completed in May. We will keep your office appraised of our progress as we move through our study and, of course, you will be notified^ our findings.

The names and eligibility status of participants may also be used for the allocation of funds to federal education programs such as Title I and National Assessment of Education Progress ( NAEP), State health or State Education programs, provided the State agency or local education agency administers the programs, and for federal, State or local means- tested nutrition programs with eligibility standards comparable to the NSLP. Eligibility information may also be released to programs authorized under the National School Lunch Act ( NSLA) or the Child Nutrition Act ( CNA). The release of information to any program or entity not specifically authorized by the NSLA will require a written consent statement from the parent or guardian. The school district does, however, have the right to verify at any time during the school year the information on the application. If a parent does not give the school this information, the child/ children will no longer be able to receive free or reduced price meals. Foster children may also be eligible for these benefits. An application for a foster child must contain the child's name, the child's " personal use" income and an adult signature. Under the provisions of the policy, the designated official will review applications and determine eligibility. If a parent is dissatisfied with the ruling of the designated official, he/ she may make a request either orally or in writing for a hearing to appeal the decision. Mr. Joseph Marchesiello, Assistant Superintendent for Business, whose address is Bethpage Union Free School District, Cherry Avenue, Bethpage, New York 11714, has been designated as the Hearing Official. Hearing procedures are outlined in the policy. However, prior to initiating the hearing procedure, the parent or School Food Authority may request a conference to provide an opportunity for the parent and official to discuss the situation, present information, and obtain an explanation of the data submitted in the application or the decisions rendered. The request for a conference shall not in any way prejudice or diminish the right to a fair hearing. Only complete applications can be approved. This includes complete and accurate information regarding: the Food Stamp/ ADCATANF, or FDPIR number; the names of all household members; the social security number of the person who signs the form or an indication that the adult does not have one; and the amount and source of income received by each household member. In addition, the parent or guardian must sign the application form, certifying the information is true and correct. In the operation of Child Nutrition Programs, no child shall be discriminated against because of his race, gender or sexual orientation, color, national origin, age, or handicap. If any member of a household believes they have been discriminated against, they should write to the Secretary of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. 20250. A complete copy of this policy is on file in the office of the School Food Authority District Administrator where it may be reviewed by any interested persons. searching fo/> Cystinosis Research Network 2nd Annua!

The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien( s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/ or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a taxlien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser's rights with respect to the lien( s) and the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/ or the Federal and State Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser's right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act( FIRREA), 12 U. S. C. ss 1811 et. seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ( FDIC) receivership. The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed.

The Nassau County Treasurer and Nassau County and its agencies, assumes no responsibility for any legal representation of any tax lien purchaser in any legal proceeding including but not limited to a bankruptcy case where the purchased tax lien is at risk. The rate of interest and penalty at which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid. Each purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount for which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within sixty daysafter such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remain- ing ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all amounts deposited with the County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurers liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase shall be of no further effect.
