Last Chance to Make the Tritec Deal Acceptable

I did not attend the January 24, 2011 Patchogue Village meeting where the Village Board was going to make a decision on the TriTec Issue! Why?....... because I felt that the decision had already been made, even before the Elks Club Forum! I did not want to waste my time only to be angered by a decision that I figured was inevitable!

I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the final decision was postponed until March 1, 2011. I believe that it is up to our Mayor and Village Board members to negotiate the best possible deal with Tritec on our behalf; granting 291 rental apartments to Tritec is the same as giving away the Goose that laid the golden egg!

I do not think that anyone is against granting Tritec permission to start construction, but some portion of the agreement must be in the best interest of our village; 291 rentals is not! We do need to protect our village from possible abuse in the future.

I suggested reserving and designating a group of apartments as "Condo," and allow them to be rented as hotel rooms. Please read the article below! (Left click the link below)

Kellene Guyer is also in favor of building the apartments, but with Co-op owner occupied provisions, that keep our "Young Professionals," on the Radar Screen. Please read the article that was written by Kellene Guyer. (Left click the link below)

In my opinion approving the construction of 291 apartments without provisions that protect our neighborhood and children, is unacceptable.
