A tree has been planted in Lindenhurst Village Square Park to honor the memory of long-time Village resident, Evelyn Chivvis.  Mrs. Chivvis was a charter member of the Mayor’s Beautification Society, and served as its Chairperson for many years.  As Chairperson, Evelyn oversaw many fundraising activities, as well as the planting of colorful flowers and shrubs, painting planters and benches, and added her special touch to many beautification projects throughout the Village.  In addition to the Mayor’s Beautification Society, Evelyn also served as the Secretary to the Village Board during Mayor Lynda Distler’s term of office.

Deputy Mayor Maryann Weckerle said, “We could not think of a better place than Village Square Park, in the heart of our Downtown Business District, to create a lasting tribute to this wonder woman — Evelyn Chivvis.”

Mayor Michael Lavorata added, “The Village of Lindenhurst is grateful for her years of service, and the legacy of accomplishments.”

VILLAGE SQUARE PARK PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICE OPENS

Public safety in the Village of Lindenhurst Downtown Business District continues to be a top priority for the Lindenhurst Village Board.  Trustee RJ Renna has stated, “Our Downtown should be a place where everyone feels safe to work, live, shop, visit, and enjoy special events.”

In recent months, the Village has increased the number of Public Safety Officers patrolling the Downtown, installed additional surveillance cameras, and established a Downtown Public Safety office in Village Square Park. The Public Safety office is located next to the Gazebo, and is equipped with radios, surveillance camera monitors, and an area for residents to report issues.

Our Village Public Safety Officers provide a friendly and visible presence, and serve as the eyes and ears of the Downtown. They work with the Suffolk County Police Department, businesses, property owners, and residents to provide an additional layer of safety.

Mayor Michael Lavorata said, “Our public safety team provides an impactful and positive improvement to the safety and quality of life in the Village Downtown Business District.”
