The Changing Face of Town Government

What do you think of the new appointments?

The Town of Oyster Bay government unveiled a new look Tuesday with the appointment of former Massapequa Park Mayor James Altadonna as the Town Clerk and attorney Michele Johnson as the newest member of the Town Board.

Altadonna served as mayor of Massapequa Park for 12 years, while Johnson has never held elective office. She is a graduate of New York University Law School.

So we have two appointees with different backgrounds. Both will have to win election in November to continue in the positions. 

We want to know what you think of the choices. Do you think they strengthen Town government or do you have reservations about the choices?
