Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John Venditto has engaged the services of Ron Stein and Eric Alexander of Vision Long Island to work with the Oyster Bay hamlet community to find their "voice." With so many organizations speaking for the community there is no "one voice" or "one will" to direct the town, said Mr. Venditto to residents asking who they can go to in the town to get things done to improve the hamlet. He said, "It's your will that has to be expressed." He said, when that "voice" is heard the town will be ready to work with the community on future projects. He made the announcement at the Main Street Association annual meeting held on Tuesday, Nov. 15 at the Doubleday Babcock Senior Center. FULL STORY
