Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor John Venditto swore in the newest edition to the town council, Councilwoman Michelle M. Johnson, and Town Clerk James Altadonna Jr. during a town board meeting last Tuesday morning.
Johnson is a practicing attorney, and previously worked in government as a Nassau County Deputy County Attorney. She graduated from New York Law School, served as deputy county attorney, and has worked in private practice as both a matrimonial and criminal attorney. She replaced Councilwoman Beth Faughnan, who resigned in March 2013, and will have to run for election again in November to retain her seat, as will Altadonna.

Across Nassau County, residents are reacting—some with outrage, some with delight—to the Nassau County District Attorney’s recent arrests of more than 100 men for soliciting prostitutes, including one such “john” from Plainview.
The DA’s office not only arrested the men, but made public their names and photographs. Many local residents think it finally shows local government taking the issue seriously.
