Summary
Highway and DPW reported continued snow‑clearing and salting after February storms, pothole and equipment repairs, installation of a refurbished pot‑belly stove in the Farmingdale train station, and an Altice/LIRR plan proposing a tunnel under the North Main Street tracks.
Highway Department staff provided routine operations updates including lot and park maintenance, garbage pickup in parks and dog stations, recent salting and snow‑clearing after snow events on Feb. 6, 8 and 9, and ongoing pothole repairs and equipment servicing. Stapleton and Castro Landscaping were credited for winter work downtown; salt has been ordered for the salt barn.
Operational notes included completion status on Yoakum St. Park with a berm to finish in spring 2025, a refurbished pot‑belly stove by Doug Ketchum to be installed in the Farmingdale train station, and a reported Altice/LIRR plan for North Main Street that would tunnel under the tracks to accommodate Altice facilities; Altice will submit plans to the LIRR for review.
