The ongoing Longwood Public Library renovation and expansion was the first subject, followed by the successful bond vote last August that will allow construction of a much-needed new headquarters for the Middle Island Fire District and Department. Additional items discussed were the purchase of the troubled Tudor Oaks complex by new owners Fairfield, the expansion of Competition Toyota into the old PC Richards building, McDonalds relocation from Ridge to the western front pad of the MI King Mullen shopping center, and the TOB&#8217;s commitment to fighting and ending the &#8220;MulchMare&#8221;, an illegal mulching facility located in a residential district. Perhaps the two favorite, or most frequently asked about topics, were also covered: Supervisor Romaine announced that the old Island Squire restaurant, the longest standing abandoned building along MI&#8217;s Rt 25 corridor, is slated for demolition later this year. As for the other big blighted spot \u00a0in Middle Island &#8212; the old KMart parcel opposite Artist Lake &#8212; Supervisor Romaine pledged to keep the pressure on the developer\/owner of that property until it is resolved. Breslin Realty will get no further extensions on the parcel, nor will any of their other properties in Brookhaven be acted upon until something is done with the old KMart first. \u00a0Look for MICA and the Supervisor on Channel 18 <a href=\"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Ed-Romaine-at-MICA.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1612\" alt=\"Ed Romaine at MICA\" src=\"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Ed-Romaine-at-MICA.jpg\" width=\"716\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Ed-Romaine-at-MICA.jpg 716w, http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Ed-Romaine-at-MICA-223x300.jpg 223w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 716px) 100vw, 716px\" \/><\/a>soon!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, March 6th, MICA&#8217;s \u00a0Immediate Past President Tom Talbot and current President Gail Lynch-Bailey sat down with Town of Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine to tape a segment of &#8220;Coffee with the Supervisor&#8221; \u00a0for airing on \u00a0Cablevision&#8217;s Channel 18, the town government station. \u00a0The threesome covered a variety of topics, happenings and issues affecting the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2111"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2111"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2111\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2139,"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2111\/revisions\/2139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2111"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2111"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/s453969799.onlinehome.us\/mica\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2111"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
