So I went down to Town Hall only to find out the horror that was in store for my neighborhood if a zoning change were to be approved.

The application is being proposed to construct a Sayville self storage facility. Three buildings total; Two Hugh 2 story 15,000 SQ. FT each buildings with a third one story 5,600 SQ FT. behind the Synagogue, Noah’s and Pats Automotive on Greeley Avenue right across the street from me? Oh..no I thought…

At fist I was out outraged then I felt; well, I guess its time to sell, looks grim if this is approved. Then I was filled with hope as I met with fellow neighbors and we started a petition as well as inform every one of the hearing date and time.

 We were all set to go to the hearing only to find out it had been ADJOURNED by the applicant James Rooney.

Now what do we do?

We had worked so hard going around giving out flyers meeting so many wonderful people whom were planning to attend the meeting. 

 That’s how we started the Sayville Civic Association web site.  Now we can stay in touch with our fellow residents that choose to participate and be heard.
