The Long Island Railroad is proposing to eliminate service on the North Fork line east of Ronkonkoma except for the summer months. Legislator Ed Romaine will lead a protest on Monday, 1/25 at the Riverhead Railroad Station hoping to scuttle the plan. Marc Alessi, State Assemblyman, is also expected to join with Romaine at the station.
Riverhead Supervisor Sean Walter is seeking to recover monies from the State for the cost of sidewalk construction on Main Street, taking the position that Main Street is a State roadway and that Albany should be footing the bill.
Tuesday, 1/26 is the regularly scheduled meeting for the Riverhead School District Board of Education. It is very likely that the subject of the $123 million construction referendum will be a major topic of discussion. The referendum vote will take place on February 9 at the High School gym from 6 am to 9 pm.
