Are You Having an Illegal Picnic? Take Our Smithtown Code Quiz

See if you can answer these questions about town and village codes.

Municipal codes are voluminous records of rules and regulations passed by town and village board members over the years.

But what exactly are in our local codes?

Much of them pertain to land use — zoning regulations, development capacities, etc. Other parts regulate activities on preserved land in town, other parts on certain industries within Smithtown, and of course part of it outlines responsibilities of certain town government capacities.

We thought we'd take a look at various codes within Smithtown — including the town itself and its incorporated villages — and test our readers' knowledge about some of the more particular parts of it.

If you know the answers to all of these questions, you probably work in code enforcement or in a clerk's office.

We'll post the answers in a few days, so check back soon.

This should not be a problem getting passed. It is across from the hospital there is a nursing homeRead More near by. We need more nursing homes as there are no beds available for our aging population. If you want to stay here near your family as you age and need a nursing home in the future, let them build this. You do not want to go outside of Smithtown and live in nursing homes out of this area - trust me, they are not nice! It is a fact of life, we are all going to be there one day- at least have a say in it and have them build one for our future needs. They do not have much noise or activity- really. Plus they will bring jobs to our area.

Nick, North Country rd. is 25A. Northern Blvd. intersects 25A and runs all the way to Roseville.Read More Northern Blvd is a small street about 1 mile long that is one block over from smithtown HS East main entrance. It's a serious problem when most of the neighborhood walking to the HS will pass by this creeps house. It's a totally different Northern Blvd.

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