Lynbrook deputy mayor, residents form political party

Hilary Becker, the deputy mayor of Lynbrook, and two residents who were vocal opponents of a recent development proposal in the village announced on Wednesday, Jan. 2, 2019, that they have formed a new political party and will run for three village board positions in March. The trio of challengers will run as members of the Preserve Lynbrook party, which they formed in the wake of a controversy over the proposed apartment complex that they said could still be approved.
