Dear Residents,

Well after a somewhat similar winter like that of last year, it appears that spring has finally arrived!  Overall, December and January were fairly mild, but February and March decided to get even with us with some extremely cold temperatures.  But again, as in similar fashion to last year’s winter, we did not have much snowfall to contend with.  But now that the grass is turning green and the flowers are growing, the warm weather will be here before we know it!

It has now been four years since our administration took office and thanks to the wonderful people of this Village, we can look forward to four more years! 

This year’s focus is on improvements!  From roadwork to parks, our goal is to provide places for both children and adults to enjoy!  We are going to replace playground equipment at both Shore Road and Feller’s Pond Park.  The work in process which includes infield improvements at Kienle Field as well as Shore Road’s soccer and baseball fields.

We also hope to have at least 6 events in our Summer Concert Series at the Village Square Park on  either Fridays or Saturdays beginning in mid-June.

With the cooperation of the Business Improvement District (BID) and the Mayor’s Beautification Society, we expect more flowers and plantings than ever before!  Several new decorative planters to be placed in various locations including 2 on Hoffman Ave.  We also expect to purchase new trash receptacles and banners.

The BID has several projects of it’s own which will assist in continuing to improve many businesses as well as to help reinvigorate the commercial business area and assist in bringing new businesses to our Village. 

Numerous new road projects have been completed, and as always, many more are ongoing.  It is our pleasure to continue to co-sponsor and play host to numerous concerts, festivals and community group functions throughout the year.  We encourage all residents to attend and enjoy these Village events.

My administration continues to  encourage residents to share their ideas, suggestions and concerns with us.  Our partnership with the various civic, service and community organizations have strengthened these last three years because we all have the same goal of keeping Lindenhurst as a great place to live, work and enjoy!

Along with the Board of Trustees, our Administrative staff and all the employees of the Village, we look forward to continue to serve the Village to the best of our abilities for the betterment of Lindenhurst.

Warmest Regards,

Mayor Tom Brennan
