To the editor:
Oh please! Let’s use what we already have — we don’t need “Porta Johns” in our parking lot on the village Main Street. The two bathrooms we presently have — Haserot Park and playground are both centrally located ad available to the public.
If the council voted for “open carry” in town — they can rehab both for use.
The “open carry” OK vote will require more. Trash containers, security, trash pickup, benches and medical Personnel. The “tippers” that we will attract will not improve the stores sales, as they are unable to have open containers insides. The whole new process will present more disturbing instances than you ever expected!
What is the council thinking? With rulings made that aren’t approved by our general public. We are Northporters too and would welcome some logical representation in our village. Non of the recent items have been put before our citizens. A bad and unhealthy situation, at best ! You village serves better and more discussion about items that affect us all.
No, I am not a complainer — I genuinely care about Northport. We cannot be “run” by a few individuals and we deserve more respect and consideration of our view. Those of you who know us, know how much we have enjoyed our last 25 years here. It is a sweet, friendly, not to be found in many other places these days, small harbor town.
Let’s keep it by enhancing what we have. Change will come slowly.
Nina H. Collins Northport
