Local Getty Out of Gas for Good [Empty in Smithtown]

This East Main Street gas station is the second in the area to close this year.

If you're on East Main Street and looking to fill up your gas tank there is now one less place for you to do so.

, located at 323 East Main Street in Smithtown, has closed. 

One drive past the gas station and you'll see the marquee missing numbers for the prices, cones blocking the pumps and a bare convenience store.

While this station is now closed it isn't the first on this section of roadway to do so recently.

Smithtown Patch posted in its "Empty in Smithtown" series back in February the closing of , located at 320 East Main Street, across the street from this Getty station.

There is no sale information currently available for the property listed on MLSLI.com.

What do you think should be done at this location? Does Smithtown need another gas station? Or should it be demolished and get new life from a different type of business?

How, in a period of rapidly declining enrollment, can costs be increasing so much from year to year,Read More you ask? The answer is in front of you in black and white. I urge you to READ your district’s budget: we are funding retirements when many of us cannot afford to fund our own during difficult economic times. These wheels were set in motion by contracts negotiated in times of unrealistic growth that may likely not occur again. It is time to open up these plans and relieve this unfair burden from our shoulders. Whatever other measures are pursued in order to control costs, including consolidation within and eventually with other districts, are never going to be enough if you cannot get this problem corrected. Write your congressman, for the love of God. If you need any more incentive to do so, please go to http://rocdocs.democratandchronicle.com/database/teacher-pensions-new-york and look at what Smithtown’s retirees are collecting MONTHLY. It will sicken you.

Tomorrow is the vote..vote NO NOW or our taxes are going to continue to sky rocket. Unless we doRead More something this town will continue to spiral down. More taxes aren't going to help. We need to cut expenses and get ourselves on a fiscally responsible plan.
