In case you haven’t noticed, the new traffic light on the corner of Long Neck boulevard and Route 24 is currently under construction with an operational target date of Labor Day 2016.

Our Congressman Lee Zeldin recently  announced that the Postal Service Reform Act of 2016,  that was introduced last month in the House, which included a section that would mandate the hamlets of Flanders, Riverside, and Northampton be assigned a new, unique zip code, has passed out of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. It is now eligible for a floor vote by the full House of Representatives. Mr. Zeldin said he will work “to ensure that this bill is passed before the end of the year.”
