Dear Neighbor,
The autumn season has
finally arrived, bringing with it cooler temperature and those
forever falling leaves. With this in mind it is important to
remember, the combination of dew slick roads and wet leaves makes
for hazardous driving conditions, especially when stopping and
rounding curves. Please drive safely.
At this time there
are still a few issues awaiting resolution. Descriptions of the open
items have been included in this newsletter. On top of our watch
list is the future development of the 330+ acres of the former Kings
Park Psychiatric Center. Although the property is located outside
the limits of our hamlet, based on its location and size any
development there has the potential to seriously impact the
community.
Our annual meeting and election of officers and director will take
place on Thursday, December 6th
at 7:00 p.m. in the all-purpose room at the Fort Salonga School, 39
Sunken Meadow Road. With predictions of “nor-easters” and harsh
inclement weather for the upcoming winter season we thought it would
be appropriate to invite members from the American Red Cross as our
guest speakers. Working in conjunction with the Suffolk County
Office of Emergency Management they will be making a presentation on
emergency preparedness.
Looking forward to the holiday season, we will once again gather at
the IGA Shopping Center for an afternoon of caroling and cheer as we
await the arrival of the Kings Park Fire Department’s annual holiday
parade.
As 2007 nears an end, so does my tenure as president of the
association. I would like to take this opportunity to offer a
heartfelt thanks to my fellow officers and board members, their
support over the past two years has made for an enjoyable and
fulfilling experience.
With best wishes for a safe and happy Thanksgiving Holiday, and
looking forward to seeing you around the neighborhood, I remain,
Sincerely yours,
Ken Kraska
