Residents ask Farmingdale board about pole removal, Linwood drainage, fire‑apparatus routing and streetlights

During the public‑comment period several residents raised operational and infrastructure concerns. A resident of lower Main Street "asked about telephone pole removal on Main Street" and was told the village is in the process of removing poles from Village Hall to South Front Street. Another resident requested an update on the Linwood drainage project; the minutes record the request but do not include a staff update or timeline. A separate resident asked that the board send a letter to the Nassau County Fire Academy about routing of fire apparatus to avoid Thomas Powell Blvd.; the minutes record the request but do not record board action on the request. Another resident reported multiple street lights out on Lenox Court.

The minutes do not show substantive board responses or commitments beyond stating the village is completing pole removal from Village Hall to South Front Street. The requests were recorded during the public‑comment portion of the meeting; follow‑up from the relevant departments (public works, planning or fire liaison) is not included in the meeting record and would be required to resolve the issues.
