Mayor Delivers Annual Progress Report
Mayor Joseph Zureck of Farm­ingdale
delivered his annual prog­ress
report this week at Mon­day's
Village Board meeting. It
read:
J* I would like, at this time, to
report die various programs of
improvement that were under­taken
and completed during the
past year.
With die excellent cooperation
of die Nassau County Department
of Public Works a vast drainage
program was completed and is
now in operation. This program
required die construction of two
large retention basins, numerous
catch basins, trunk lines and
laterals. The improvement
should resolve die flooding
problems previously encountered
during torrential storms. The
cost of this improvement was in
die neighborhood of $ 400,000 with
the major portion of the cost
being borne by die County.
Additional drainage problems
exist in die southeast portion of
die village and are under con­sideration
by your Board for
future improvement. Throughout
1964 die installation of drainage,
curbs, sidewalks, and permanent
type paving were installed on die
following streets: Franklin
Place, Eastern Parkway between
Elizabeth Street and Secatogue
Avenue, Secatogue Avenue north
of the Main Line Railroad to its
intersection with Melville Road,
Melville Road north of the Rail­road
to its intersection with Fair -
view Road and North Main Street.
Your Board has also authorized
die purchase of several pieces
of fire- fighting equipment;
namely, a rescue van, aerial
ladder truck, and a 1250 gallon -
per minute pumper. These have
been authorized as replacement
of present equipment that, due
to age, and use, pose a prob­lem
of increased cost in main­tenance
and availability.
Your Board has also approved
die expansion of our Water De­partment
by authorizing die con­struction
of a 500,000 gallon ele­vated
storage tank, a new deep
well and pump house, phis the
replacement of exisiting water
mains which are of inadequate
size. These improvements will
be made at die Eastern Parkway
site. This action is necessitated
by die fact that water samplings,
taken by the Nassau County De­partment
of Health, have re­vealed
die presence of detergents
and manganese deposits in our
shallow well. In addition, two
surveys and inspections were
made of our existing 100.000
gallon elevated tank by two sep­arate
and independent firms. Both
reports concur that die useful,
life of this tank has practically
expired. Being over thirty years
old this tank requires extensive
expenditures for maintenance.
Also due to its limited capacity,
this tank requires continous
starting and stopping of our well
pump.
Your Board is of die opinion
that these two combined pro­grams
will provide for unlimited
use of water by our residents
and improve our fire- fighting
capabilities as well as our fire
rating which could eventually re­flect
itself in improved Ore in­surance
rates.
Your administration has also
authorized the Long Island
Lighting Company to proceed with
die installation of Mercury Va­por
lighting throughout our resi­dential
area. This program will
replace all present incandescent
lighting fixtures and include the
installation of additional fixtures
that may be deemed necessary.
Your administration is cog­nizant
of die many problems that
confront our community due to its
continued expansion and growth.
We shall continue to be progres­sive
and constructive in our
thoughts and actions by continu­ally
undertaking programs
of improvement and also con­tinue
to provide essential and
improved service to die resi­dents
of our community."
No opposition candidate filed
for the forthcoming election,
