Financial Health of Town Greatly Improves Again with $19.2 Million Budget Surplus

Good Afternoon E-Team!

A Message from Supervisor Saladino

COMING SOON - EXPANDED OUTDOOR DINING OPPORTUNITIES:
With the region facing potential State limitations on indoor dining once restaurants are permitted to reopen, the Oyster Bay Town Board will allow restaurants to offer expanded outdoor dining options to patrons. To make the process simple and ensure the most available dining options for you, applications will not be necessary and no permit fees will be collected by the Town as long as restaurants meet certain safety criteria. The Town will allow restaurants located in our downtown business districts to work with their local chambers of commerce to achieve road closures, allowing for increased seating for restaurant patrons and greater walkability for area residents. Road closures with outdoor dining options will be considered for Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m.

• Capacity is limited to 50%.
• Group contact activities, including sports, are prohibited.
• Picnic areas, playgrounds, and pavilions are closed.
• Masks must be worn by all visitors when social distancing is not possible
• Concessions are closed.

 
FREE BEACH PARKING STICKERS FOR SENIOR CITIZENS & THE DISABLED:
Free beach parking is offered to Town senior citizens, the disabled and those on social security disability. To protect your health and safety during this COVID-19 pandemic, you will simply be asked to show your driver's license and registration from behind the window when visiting the beach for the first time this season.  A parking sticker will then be adhered to your vehicle to ensure continued free access upon future arrival through the established Express Lane.  If you choose to visit the beach in another vehicle, simply present your Driver's License or Beach ID Card from behind the window and you will receive a free day pass. Although not required this season, seniors and those with disabilities can obtain a Beach ID Card without physically visiting the Town Clerk's Office.  Simply email Town Clerk Richard LaMarca at townclerk@oysterbay-ny.gov and provide your contact information including name, address, telephone number email address and a photo. A staff member will process your request.
 
BEACH PARKING STICKERS NOW ON SALE:
The Town restricted beach access to residents-only and enhanced safety measures with new signage and pedestrian barriers. Seasonal beach parking stickers are now on sale daily, from 10am to 2pm at TOBAY Beach, Philip B. Healey Beach at Florence Avenue in Massapequa, Tappen Beach in Glenwood Landing, Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park and Beach in Oyster Bay, and John J. Burns Town Park in Massapequa. To purchase a beach parking sticker for your vehicle, you must present your vehicle registration and bring the vehicle you plan to drive to the beach since parking stickers are placed on the vehicle at the time of purchase.  Only residents may purchase beach parking stickers for $60, which pay for themselves after three visits
 
LOCAL FOOD DRIVE COLLECTING DONATIONS SOUGHT THRU MAY 29^TH:
The Town is partnering with Long Island Cares in a food drive to benefit those impacted by the COVID-19 public health crisis.  The food drive continues through May 29^th, with outdoor collection boxes at Town Hall North in Oyster Bay, Town Hall South in Massapequa and at the Town's Public Works facility in Syosset. All locations are open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.  Nonperishable items, including pet food, are welcome. For more information, visit www.licares.org or call (516) 624-6380.
 
WALK-UP WINDOWS FOR SCHOOL TAX PAYMENTS - DUE JUNE 1^st:
With so many hardships during this public health crisis, Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato, the Town Board and I urged Governor Cuomo to delay the May 11th deadline for school property tax payments in Nassau County.  The Governor has agreed to do so.  The new deadline is June 1st for residents to pay their school taxes without penalty. In regard to payment, property owners can now pay by eCheck for only a 75 cent fee (we were able to get the processing vendor to reduce this fee from a previous high of $6). Mailing a check or money order is also available, as well as credit card payments (in which the credit card vendor continues to charge a larger fee as authorized by NYS). An in-person walk-up window for money orders/checks-only is now open at both Town Hall North in Oyster Bay and at Town Hall South in Massapequa from 10am to 2pm weekdays.  Checks are payable to Jeffrey P. Pravato, Receiver of Taxes, and mailed to 74 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay, NY 11771.  Please remember to include your Section, Lot and Block on the check.
 
MARRIAGE CEREMONIES:
Are you a Town resident looking to get married? Town Clerk Richard LaMarca continues to grant marriage licenses and conduct ceremonies on-site with social distancing and other proper precautions in place. If you reside outside the Town of Oyster Bay but are a first responder, you are also eligible for this service. For more information, please call (516) 624-6333 or email townclerk@oysterbay-ny.gov.  Parking permits, death certificates and other permit/license applications are available at www.oysterbaytown.com and can be submitted by mail for processing.
 
HELP AVAILABLE FOR BASIC NEEDS:
The Town is supporting the United Way of Long Island in helping families recently unemployed or furloughed due to COVID-19. Eligible applicants can receive retail gift cards to help them meet critical basic needs of food and household supplies. No tax money supports this initiative.  Apply at www.unitedwayli.org/COVID19HELPOYSTERBAY

Good Afternoon E-Team!

Good Afternoon E-Team!

Good Afternoon E-Team!

THE TOWN OF OYSTER BAY IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS

Government must remain open to help the public at all times.  All Town of Oyster Bay facilities are currently open for business and will remain open unless an upgraded public health threat exists.
 

HERE'S WHAT THE TOWN IS DOING TO PROTECT FACILITIES

The Town of Oyster Bay Health and Public Safety Task Force is taking the appropriate measures to address COVID-19.  Our protocols meet or exceed the guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and local Health authorities.  The Department of General Services has intensified cleaning procedures to frequently disinfect touched surfaces, desktops, countertops, tables, doorknobs, light switches, hand rails, toilets, faucets, sinks, public phones and public computer keyboards (just to name a few).  The department will regularly empty all restroom waste paper baskets and spray disinfectant in restrooms and on waste paper baskets. 
 

WHAT IS COVID-19?

COVID-19 is the infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered coronavirus. This new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019.
 

PREVENTION

While there is currently no vaccine to prevent this virus, these simple steps can help stop the spread of this and other respiratory viruses:

. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.

. Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

. Stay home when you are sick.

. Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.

. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
 

WHAT ARE SYMPTOMS OF COVID-19?

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, tiredness, and dry cough. Some patients may have aches and pains, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and begin gradually. Some people become infected but don't develop any symptoms and don't feel unwell. Most people (about 80%) recover from the disease without needing special treatment. Around 1 out of every 6 people who gets COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficulty breathing. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart problems or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illness. People with fever, cough and difficulty breathing should seek medical attention. CDC believes at this time that symptoms may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14 days after exposure to the virus.
 

HOW DOES NOVEL COVID-19 SPREAD?

Most of the early reported cases had contact with a seafood and live animal market, suggesting an animal source of the outbreak. However, most cases are now likely to be spread from person to person by droplets when coughing. Since this virus is very new, health authorities continue to carefully watch how this virus spreads.
 

PROTECTION MEASURES FOR EVERYONE

Stay aware of the latest information on the COVID-19 outbreak, available through the health department or CDC website. You can reduce your chances of being infected or spreading COVID-19 by taking some simple precautions:

. Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water.

. Maintain at least 3 feet of distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.

. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth.

. Make sure you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. This means covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then dispose of the used tissue immediately.

. Stay home if you feel unwell. If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention and call in advance. Follow the directions of your local health authority.

Financial Health of Town Greatly Improves Again with $19.2 Million Budget Surplus

Good Afternoon E-Team!

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino today announced the creation of a new online portal for residents to be able to handle most of their Town business remotely. The portal, titled 'Town Hall at Home,' provides a one-stop shop to information on performing Town business remotely, whether it be paying taxes, filing paperwork, or requesting documents.

"During these difficult and unprecedented times, the Town is encouraging residents to conduct their Town business online when possible," said Supervisor Saladino. "The 'Town Hall at Home' portal will help residents facilitate this business, while still adhering to requested health department practices for social distancing."

The online portal allows residents to easily find forms, applications, pay their taxes, and more. The virtual Town Hall will also include a live-chat option during regular Town business hours, weekdays from 9am to 4:45pm, to further assist residents.

"We all share in the responsibility to limit person-to-person contact to help thwart the spread of COVID-19, and this is just one way we can all do our part," added Supervisor Saladino. "We are all in this together and I ask for your patience as we will continue to modify virtual Town business procedures to help keep our residents safe. This is unchartered territory, but just as we have done in the past, we will get through this with each of us playing an important role."
