Hempstead Town Councilwoman Dorothy Goosby has canceled her town hall meeting tonight in Freeport because of a disaster response forum being held at the same time in Freeport High School by Nassau County Legis. Dave Denenberg (D-Merrick).
Goosby’s annual forum was scheduled from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Freeport Memorial Library. An alternate date has not been selected yet, town officials said.
Denenberg, in partnership with local civic associations, will present his forum at 7 p.m. in the high school (50 S. Brookside Ave.).
Denenberg’s forum is meant to provide residents an opportunity to voice their opinions about the emergency response of utility companies and government agencies after superstorm Sandy.
For more information, contact Denenberg’s office at 516-571-6219
