GIANT STEPS TOWAR
Nassau County Executive Thomas
S. Gulotta today joined with
several County legislators to outline
an action plan for the future
development of the 600 acre
Grumman property in Bethpage.
During a press conference at the
site, Gulotta described the area as
"one of the last large tracts of land
in Nassau suitable for comprehensive
planned development."
Gulotta was joined by Majority
Leader Bruce Blakeman and Legislators
Edward Mangano and
Peter J. Schmitt in announcing the
plan.
"In my recent State of the
County address, I recommended
the development of a well though-out
comprehensive master plan
for these 600 acres that would
permit its redevelopment in an
environmentally safe fashion,"
Gulotta said. "The redevelopment
of this parcel must be viewed not
just on the basis of our needs
today, but also on the basis of the
economic and job opportunities
that will be made available to our
children and future generations. I
am deeply appreciative of the
efforts of Legislators Blakeman,
Mangano and Schmitt in coordinating
this comprehensive plan."
Presiding Officer Bruce Blakeman,
(7th L.D.) stated, "The Grumman
and Navy properties are the
cornerstone of Nassau County's
economic development in the
future. Legislators Mangano and
Schmitt have been working with
me and the County Executive to
insure that this land is put to its
highest and best use and is compatible
with the surrounding
communities."
Legislator Edward Mangano,
(17th L.D.) stated: "This plan
exemplifies my commitment to
insuring that the property is developed
in a fashion that fuels
economic development for the
County while protecting the needs
and quality of life of the Bethpage
and Hicksville communities in
which the property is located."
And Deputy Presiding Officer
Peter Schmitt, (12th L.D.) said:
EVELOPMEN
"The Grumm^pkoperty is the
lynchpin to eJHFomic revitaliza-tion
in our rjpfii, which means
jobs. We are commited to achieving
it in a balanced and planned
fashion."
The plan calls for the following:
'Establish a formal Grumman
Master Planning Council to coordinate
the development of a master
plan for the area with a specific
focus on the vacant land and the
100 acres of Navy owned property.
The Council will coordinate the
efforts of Northrop Grumman,
Nassau County Planning Commission,
Nassau County Industrial
Development Agency, County
Department of Public Works,
Commerce and Industry, County
Executive's Office, Nassau County
Legislature, various Town of Oyster
Bay Departments, Oyster Bay

Departments and private real
