Town to Blighted Property Owners: Clean Up or Pay Up

Eighteen property owners ordered to correct messy conditions or be billed cleanup costs.

 

Owners of 18 blighted Town of Huntington properties have been ordered to correct conditions or be billed cleanup costs.

Notices will be sent this month to owners of blighted properties ordering them to correct conditions within 10 days or enter into a restoration agreement with Town Hall, according to the town.

According to the town officials, nine of the 18 properties are in Huntington Station, four are in Huntington, two are in Dix Hills, with one each in Greenlawn, Northport and East Northport. All received scores of greater than 100 on the blighted property designation checklist after inspections by Town code enforcement officers.

A March 13 public hearing has been approved to consider authorization to correct the messy conditions and apply cleanup costs to the property taxbills of owners.

The Town Board has proposed a code change authorizing Huntington's receiver of taxes authority to levy the costs of the cleanup to the individual owners. Currently, the town assessor is charged with the job.

A public hearing regarding the change is also scheduled for March 13 at Town Hall.

Owners and blighted property locations include:

  • Thomas Emberton, 6 Tracy Dr., Huntington

That is all they could find? I think a mucher bigger list could be made if there is a better reporting system that residents could e-mail the eyesores in their neighborhoods!!

What about that yellow abandoned house across from Best Buy in East Northport? Who can I contact about that? It's been like that since I was a little kid, now that's many years ago.

I think there are some pages missing, there are a lot more properties than this list. Must be human error. Just drive by the south side of the train station from East 2nd to Pulaski they probably could fill a page just in that area alone.

Forest Court wasn’t on the list of 18 that was on the Town Board agenda at the last meeting.

I don't understand why it is not on the top of the blight list. The Town has allegedly spent over $50,000 dollars on 3 Forest Court paper work and a few nails and it only gets worse!!! A bad waste of tax payer dollars with excuses of due proce$$.
