A Message from the Mayor

Dear Neighbors,

I hope you all have had a very enjoyable summer! June and July throughout our Village was full of events and activities for our community.

We started this summer with a very successful return of Breakfast in the Park. I would like to thank all who participated and helped return this event to Brady Park. It was so nice to see residents enjoying breakfast in one of our Villages’ most beautiful settings next to the Massapequa Preserve. To celebrate Independence Day we enjoyed a spectacular fireworks display from inside Mansfield Park. I truly enjoyed one of the largest Independence Day parades on July 4th that our Village has ever seen.

I would like to personally thank the entire community for helping to participate in our Park After Dark events this summer. The support from our local merchants and community for these events has been something we can all be proud of. It is great to see families and friends from our Village enjoying our beautiful downtown. The last Park After Dark for 2022 will be Wednesday, September 14th. I hope to see you all there.

As I took to the road at the end of this summer to help move one of my sons in at college, the drive allowed me time to reflect on how much we have accomplished in our Village since 2021 and the results that we continue to deliver to our residents.

We are making significant upgrades and improvements throughout the Village including the improvement of our Basketball Courts last year; and this year creating a new space for a Pickleball Court to investing in our roads. This year, we completed an additional 4.1 miles of road resurfacing. The Village Board and I are focused on delivering the best results for our residents without raising taxes.

We will again mark the anniversary of the horrific terrorist attacks on September 11th. I would like to extend an invitation to all who would like to attend the 7:00 PM memorial service at our 9-11 monument on the grounds of Village Hall to remember this tragic day.

As we look ahead to the fall months, our events will continue to round out the season, starting with Irish Night at Brady Park on September 17th at 6:00pm and then our Fall Festival Street Fair on Sunday, October 2nd. Later in October, we will also have our Safe Halloween Trick or Treat event on Park Blvd. on Monday, October 31st from 3:00pm-5:00pm. We ask you to please plan your Trick or Treating on Park Blvd. during these hours, so that our merchants can conduct their business during the day.

As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call us here at Village Hall.

Daniel Pearl

Village Mayor
