Letter to the Editor: North of Turnpike Locals Thrown to NUMC Wolves

Parking still remains an issue for those who live above Route 24.

Dear Editor,

A recent article posted in Newsday by another civic minded individual totally neglected to mention that there are serious parking issues on the North side of Hempstead Turnpike. 

This person all to well knows of the situation but chose not to mention anything to Newsday, or to a certain member of the State Legislature. The permit parking will go nowhere, and should it do so by some miracle, we will be into our 90’s.  

What is wrong with the parking area North of Hempstead Turnpike? Do we not have multiple parking issues also, and attended meetings at NUMC? Your lengthy interview in Newsday threw us to the wolves.  

Error or disregard? I will add my solution once again. The entire parking issue started when the hospital imposed a parking fee--period. Those getting free care will not, or cannot pay for anything, including parking. Employees and nursing students just show disregard for area residents and continue to park on Nottingham Road, Bailey Avenue and Dofena Lane.

I strongly suggest that NUMC Security or Ms.Newsday interviewee take a ride along the streets I mentioned. The only solution, as you should have realized by now, is FREE PARKING for all at NUMC.

OK we will look for it. To bad you do not say where it will be. Will it be? or Will it not be?Read More How are those Town permits coming along?

Not sure why that happened. May have been a technical error.

Did I really need this anouncement 22 times?
