Weigh in on Snow and Fireworks
The Village of Massapequa Park is planning to use some unused snow removal funds to pay for the annual fireworks show. Is it the right move?
The Village of Massapequa Park is swapping winter for summer.
At a board meeting this week, Mayor James Altadonna announced that the village had a $35,000 surplus due to the lack of snow removal this winter.
The board voted to use $15,000 of those funds to hold the annual Fourth of July fireworks celebration.
