Thank you to Councilman Vacca and former Councilwoman Provenzano for renovating the kitchen at Engine 70/Ladder 53 Firehouse. Thank you to our firefighters who put their lives on the line each and every day to protect our community and city!

By all accounts, traffic enforcement on City Island has been very effective. Our thanks to Captain Green of the 45th Precinct, his officers and our own Traffic Committee Chair Paul Nani!

The City Island Library was recently profiled by the New York Times Blog City Room for their community garden. Thank you to all those involved in making our community a better place.
