(Editor's Note: The following letter was sent to Town of Hempstead Supervisor Richard Guardino.)

As you are well aware, community leaders receive a tremendous amount of feedback on the quality of services provided by government agencies.

In connection with this matter, I have received only high praise on the snow removal efforts by the Town of Hempstead. The main streets were immediately cleared and side roads were cleared the following day. In fact, I even received complimentary remarks from residents of cul-de-sacs.

On behalf of the East Meadow Civic Association, thank you and the highway department for a job well-done.

Robert J. Zafonte,

President, East Meadow Civic Association
