On October 26, Councilwoman Jane Bonner and Coastal Steward Long Island volunteer Brian McCaffery attended the Shellfish Restoration Project event at Mt. Sinai Harbor. The organization and volunteers placed 50,000 oysters in both the Mt. Sinai and Port Jefferson Harbor sites. It was the final Shellfish Restoration Project oyster release of 2024. They were raised at the Town of Brookhaven Mariculture Facility at Mt Sinai Harbor until May and June 2024. 

The 20 mm oysters were donated to the Coastal Steward, a not-for-profit group that volunteers for the Town of Brookhaven. The Coastal Steward then grows the oysters as part of their Mariculture Restoration Program until they plant them in October on a Town Management Area in Port Jefferson Harbor.

Coastal Steward Long Island received 75,000 small Eastern oysters, raised at the Town of Brookhaven Mariculture facility at Mt. Sinai Harbor and divided into 75 bags. With the help of volunteers, the bags were placed in large growing cages and submerged. Throughout the summer and fall, their health and growth were monitored. In addition, every two weeks the oysters are removed from their cages and cleaned to prevent overgrowth of algae and other organisms that may inhibit their growth.

Brookhaven Town Highway Superintendent Losquadro, Councilwoman Bo Brookhaven Town Highway Superintendent Daniel P. Losquadro and Councilwoman Jane Bonner have announced the resurfacing of Hawkins Path from Hawkins Road to County Road 83, as well as Hawkins Road from North Bicycle Path in Selden to Hawkins Path in Centereach.

Prior to paving, crews replaced approximately 3,700 linear feet of curb, nearly 300 square feet of concrete sidewalk and approximately 4,000 square feet of aprons, in addition to installing ADA-compliant handicap ramps, at a cost of approximately $290,000.

The milling and paving cost for this project was $380,000; the total cost for this paving project was $670,000. “Hawkins Road is a main artery in Brookhaven Town, crossing two council districts and serving as a main access point for teachers, students and staff attending Stagecoach Elementary School,” said Superintendent Daniel Losquadro. “It is now safer and smoother for all motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians.”

Councilwoman Bonner said, “Resurfacing Hawkins Path and Hawkins Road makes travel so much safer for everyone. Fall is a busy time for the men and women of the Highway Department, but the residents of Brookhaven Town can rest assured that infrastructure improvements are a year-round priority for Superintendent Losquadro.”

As the officers and the residents get to know each other better, they become more comfortable, creating the opportunity for real conversations about issues that matter.

Councilwoman Bonner said, “Coffee with a Cop is a great opportunity for law enforcement to touch base with Brookhaven Town residents It’s also a good time for people to say “thank you” to the men and women who protect and serve us every single day. “
