Petito- Ocker Demand Hearing
On Oyster Bay- Rye Bridge
In a joint statement this
week, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor
Michael N. Petito
anri 3oard Majority Leader
Edmund A. Ocker demanded
that the local public
hearing on the proposed
Oyster Bay- Rye Bridge be
attended by top officials
from the MTA, State Transportation
Department and
representatives from Gov.
Rockefeller's office.
" We will also insist that
this hearing be more than
the usual session of this
sort, where the public is
given little more than an
opportunity to let off steam,"
Petito and Ocker stated. " We
want this hearing to be a
true dialogue between responsible
state officials, the
town board and concerned
residents. Our vehement
opposition to the proposed
bridge and feeder highways
is unchanged. The State officials
making these proposals
must meet freely and publicly
with us to hear our de
tailed objections and offer
their rationale for needlessly
destroying some of the finest
residential communities on
Long Island.
" We are deeply concerned
over the prospect of some
177 homes being condemned,
communities being cut in
half and priceless natural
resources being ravaged.
The public hearing which
PAGE 3
the State has promised to
hold in the community must
indeed be a fact- finding session
if it is to serve any
meaningful purpose," the
two town officials said.
Petito and Ocker said that
they would contact the appropriate
State officials to make
known their demands on the
format and substance of the
public hearing.
