Dear Residents, Many of you are likely aware of the proposed law from Gov. Hochul for high-density housing on Long Island. The Governor’s budget proposes OVERRIDING what is called Municipal Home Rule, which allows Villages to determine their own zoning codes.

Dear Residents, This past weekend many of us experienced severe music and base thumping overnight well past midnight. To most of us, it seemed as if it were coming from “next door”. This music was heard throughout Sands Point, Port Washington, Kings Point, and into the Oyster Bay peninsula.

The Village is aware of the ongoing issues with those who stop on Lighthouse to take in the views. Last year we increased no parking fines. Recently, we passed new laws to add No Stopping to ticket-able offenses. Now, we have two choices, as we see it: Do nothing and just leave as-is. Or we can try some new signage—we welcome your feedback. 1. A (approx) 3’ x 4’ sign at the hard curve, coming downhill, on Lighthouse with the following message: We know the view is beautiful

Sands Point Residents: Those of us on Verizon for cell service have been experiencing months of diminished service. Dropped calls, dead zones, etc…. We have been in touch repeatedly with Verizon Regional Managers. They report that they are having “teething issues” as they roll out new frequencies and technologies. Frankly, we would have understood that reason had the interruptions been limited to a few weeks. But we are at many months now. Unfortunately, we, as a Village ha
