So happy to have heard from so many residents asking for restoration of assorted posts---we have potentially 18 months that the "New EC" was up to repost here---if the issue is not resolved---in the meantime, here's a special request---SEE BELOW.
THE FOLLOWING LETTER FROM LENNY AMICOLA RECENTLY APPEARED IN THE GAZETTE:
I have lived in Croton for 66 years. As a child I remember the plans to build apartments stretching from the Upper Village down through Wells and what is now the Jeep dealership. My father was one of many residents who spoke out in favor of lower density housing. That was a time when our village trustees listened to the community, and that is why Croton is the village it is today.
Growing up in Croton we were taught to respect our elders. That has also changed, as Ed Riley found out a few weeks ago. When my father went to the village meetings even neighbors who disagreed with him let him speak. And my father listened to the views of other residents without interrupting them.
The country was deeply divided when I came back in 1970. Here in Croton there were also differences but it was still a small village and we got along with each other. We can be neighbors and reach compromise.
Nigel Ravelo and Gary Eisinger are low-key and they listen to what other people say. They have conversations instead of lecturing their neighbors. They would be a positive influence on the Board of Trustees.
Sincerely,
Lenny Amicola
