The price of tickets is much higher. Last year it was pay one price $12. Now it's $25 to go on…Read More rides. Instead of taking my kids 2x we will be going once and most likely get one treat. I can see the hecksher park carnival being $25 because they have more attractions. Too costly for families.

The problem with those tress is they are planted so closely together, that they likely won't grow…Read More well, and might even choke each other out! They went for short term screening, but it will likely be a problem later, that will require more tree work.

I don't mind the sculpture - & I think all in all it looks very nice with the newly planted…Read More trees...probably meant to block the pawn shop, but like I said earlier we have wonderful artisans on Long Island & more specifically right here in Huntington. I just can't understand the decision not to utilize local talent!

I dont know which is the bigger eyesore,the pawn shop or the sculpture, which by the way was…Read More produced by an out of towner. I can not for the life of me understand the purpose of this "Plaza". Who is going to use it ? Its an accident waiting to happen. Again, the town board uses our monies for things which dot make sense. Very disappointed.

I loved the confluence of the firetruck and house history and the costumes..

Precious Box you sound like your typical angry ignorant poster. I had never met Dr. Bennardo before…Read More he came here, but he has been absolutely amazing. He's the best thing to happen to this school district in a long long time, especially after we lost Polansky to Huntington. The school district has been making (and had made for them) massive cuts, they are doing more with less, they got rid of all the fat and run lean and mean now. Quick question: What do you do to help? Are you on the board? Attend meetings? Contribute at one of the schools?

Yes, don't try to post six times and then you'll get off the spam list. If you post a lot, close…Read More together, the system seems to get suspicious.

Lost your job? having trouble paying your mortgage? well maybe you should move and let those who can…Read More support us keep voting the way they do. Gotta preserve those entitlements. Dumbing you down has its rewards. Thank you, Thank you very much.

Not everyone can afford to own a home...so what do they do....? Yes we have some illegal apartments…Read More in Huntington, every city/town does. If you are here, in this country illegally you can't vote, unless you've become a citizen...
As for how well our students do...the negative is portrayed more than the positive...our students may not all have 100 averges etc. but I bet they are happier than those that are only studying...there are many ways to show success...

You just contradicted yourself, JSC. They put an extra load on the school system. CORRECT. How? By…Read More NOT PAYING PROPERTY TAXES! Many things go into how much your taxes are, including single vs multi family dwellings. By converting a single family dwelling into a multi family dwelling, illegally, they are cheating the tax system!
JSC May 22, 2013 at 04:20 pm
Your property taxes aren't based on how many kids live in a house, legal or illegal! Someone who…Read More has five kids isn't paying more property taxes because of that, and someone who lives illegally in an apartment is contributing to the property tax bill for the owner. Until they change the way taxes are calculated, your argument doesn't hold water.
I understand the extra load put on the school system, but they can't do anything about the tax system.
