Town Recommends Nissequogue Evacuation for Hurricane Sandy

Public Safety spoke to locals on Long Beach Road in Nissequogue Sunday suggesting they find a place to relocate to for Hurricane Sandy.

While not mandatory, the Town of Smithtown has recommended residents of Nissequogue find a place to relocate during Hurricane Sandy.

The recommendation is made for residents on Long Beach Road, the Public Safety Department confirmed via phone Sunday afternoon. Members of the town's Public Safety Department spoke to locals Sunday door-to-door advising them to leave until it is safe to return.

John Valentine, Director of Public Safety for the town, and John Wagner, Smithtown’s deputy director of public safety, were not available for comment by time of publication.

During Topical Storm Irene, residents on Long Beach Road were subject to a mandatory evacuation.

As of Sunday at 5 p.m., the National Hurricane Center labeled Sandy as a Category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph, moving northeast at 15 mph about 530 miles south-southeast of New York City.

You are absolutely right pj. Its comparing apples to oranges. Assisted living is for the elderlyRead More that cant take care of themselves. What noise is created. They are indoors and at the age where driving may not be an option. And the facility faces Route 25A. A main corridor that has been used as a main road for over 50 years. A road that has gas stations,bars, hospitals, nursing homes, retail stores and high schools presently on it. Why not an assisted living.

Exactly. Don't see a problem having it. Many of them don't even go outdoors.

We have an assisted living center right next to our neighborhood. For the most part it is quiet,Read More there is not a lot more traffic, it even looks nice. I will take it over another strip mall, supermarket, bar any day . Like the previous poster wrote, it serves our community.

how is this allowed!!! I thought sex offenders were not allowed to live or be within a certainRead More amount of feet from a school or park or playground???? This "person" is young also, born in 1990 so he might blend in by the high school. he raped an 11 year old girl and only got 2 years in prison.

I don't think the town has a say in it. That is the good old MTA.
