More Rock Attacks on Medford Avenue
A rock was thrown through the Plate Glass Window of the Singer Store, on Medford Avenue, and Northridge St. this makes the fourth act of vandalism, within five days. Evidence was found at the scene and is now in the hands of the Police Department. A Rock was also thrown through the Plate Glass Window of the old Flower Store that is currently closed, one thousand feet northeast of the Singer Store. There has also been complaints of Garbage Dumping at this location. We have an "out of control," individual or group of individuals.

Please go out of your way to patronize our local Merchants on Medford Avenue, in order to help buffer their losses.

Christmas time is upon us and Mr. Potter is again trying to destroy Bedford Falls; in this case, Patchogue Village.

Some local group of people, are actually trying to collect 2000 signatures so that he can force a vote, that could dissolve the Patchogue Village Incorporation. In short, our village would cease to exist, our first line of defense would be fired, and our Code Officers would be sent home! Where does this leave us, the residents of Patchogue Village? This scenario leaves us in Pottersville! We don't want that! This jargon comes from the Movie "It's a Wonderful Life; which from it's inception has given us a true and powerful message. The Mr. Potters of this world are a scourge to humanity. They can only think of themselves, and do not care if their actions turn our village into a slum!

In his publication, the person or group that originated this obscene action, justifies itself because of "Village Issued Tickets, and alleged "high taxes." Tickets? You violated a Village Ordnance, and deserve the fine! Taxes? We expect to pay slightly higher taxes by virtue of supporting our Village Government.

Our Mayor, Paul Pontieri, and the current slate of Trustees are our first line of defense in keeping our village Crime Free. It is our Village Government that works directly with the Police Department, and Neighborhood Watch Groups, to make sure that Our Village stays "the way we would like it to be. Get this same degree of support from the Town of Brookhaven? It wouldn't happen! The only municipalities that retain an acceptable Quality of Life, are those that also retain a Constabulary.

The opposition may ask, why am I so concerned about retaining Village Government? Because I am as "Greedy " as you are! Transient Crime runs through our village about every "Seven Years;" just like Locust! I would guess that this is normal for most Communities. If you read the 2001 section of this blog you will see that our House Values appreciated by $50,000., at that time. The appreciation was a direct result of our Village Government Cleaning-up our Village! Home Owners, and even "Slum Lords," take note! If crime is again allowed to take over our village, the value of your home will drop by 60 Percent, just as it did fifteen years ago. If you sign that petition, be prepared to loose about $300,000. That hurts! You could buy a Condo in North Carolina for that amount of money. If you are a Landlord, and own, five houses in our village, you will loose 1,500,000. Dollars. Damn 1.5 Mil! You won't have much of a retirement if you sign that petition.

Wow Therapeutic Writing!
Now I feel Better!
