SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY

by

The Village of Lindenhurst encourages all residents and visitors to support our local merchants and shop in our Downtown Business District on Small Business Saturday, November 27, 2021, and throughout the holiday season. The Village has a variety of businesses from boutiques to bakeries, breweries, a meadery, and restaurants. Come down and support our Lindenhurst Business District this holiday season.

Deputy Mayor Maryann Weckerle, also the owner of local paint store Bak & Vogel, said, “Our small businesses are the heart and soul of our Lindenhurst Community.  The holiday season is about giving, and our small business owners give back to our community all year long in a number of ways.”

Trustee Patrick Pichichero, a small business owner himself, added, “This past year of Pandemic has been incredibly hard on all of us, but has had a dramatic effect on our retailers, restaurants, theaters, and other small businesses.  It is important to shop local this holiday season, and year-round, to keep our local economy healthy.”

LINDENHURST ROADWORK PROJECTS

To ensure that they are safe and in good condition for residents, roads in the Village of Lindenhurst are assessed regularly by the Superintendent of Public Works.  Re-paving schedules are determined by the funds that are available on a yearly basis, and the maintenance that is needed for the safety of our community.  This year, the Village has utilized over $2 million of Federal, State, and Utility Company funds to resurface many roads and improve drainage throughout the Village.

Trustee Patrick Pichichero said, “Although it seems that we only scratched the surface, the Village Board will continue to do as many drainage and road improvement projects as possible to improve the quality of life for our residents, for years to come.”

Trustee RJ Renna has announced that, thanks in part to a Suffolk County Downtown Revitalization Grant, the municipal parking facility, located on West Hoffman Avenue and School Street, has been completely gutted, in process for renovation.  Some of the changes and improvements that will be coming to the parking lot include re-paving the asphalt lot, restriping the lot to accommodate more parking spaces, landscaping, and curb and sidewalk repair.

Trustee Renna said, “This project is another of the on-going upgrades the Village is making to improve the parking in our Downtown Business District.”

Deputy Mayor Maryann Weckerle added, “The Village, in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce and Business Improvement District, will continue to work to revitalize our Downtown Business District with transformative public and private sector projects.  We will work together to achieve our goal of creating a vibrant Downtown that will support current businesses, foster growth, and build a strong and secure future for the Lindenhurst Community.”
