Mr. Felix Grucci
, former Supervisor of theTown of Brookhaven, who agreed to support this study, and to his successor,
Supervisor JohnJay LaValle
, who reiterated that support.
Dr. Lee Koppelman
, Executive Directory of the Long Island Regional Planning Board, actedas a consultant on this project. We are grateful for the eminent expertise that he brought to bear,and for his wisdom and guidance as we struggled to turn idealistic ideas into more practical plans.The Shoreham Hamlet Study Core Committee is a group of volunteers from the threecommunities that are covered by this report. In addition to determining the scope of the study,developing a structure and writing and distributing the Hamlet Study Survey, members of thecommittee also served as chairpersons for the subcommittees on History, Land Use, Recreation,Transportation, Environment, Institutions, Schools and Energy. Some of the subcommittees metfrequently, while others focused on research. Some completed their work in hours; others neededmonths. We thank everyone who contributed in ways large and small, with special praise for themembers of the Land Use subcommittee. In addition to several members of the Hamlet StudyCore Committee, this group included
Brian Mahoney, Perry Milanese and Lou Sadler
.A great many people reorganized their priorities in order to contribute their time and effort tothese subcommittees. Those priorities changed again following the terrorist attacks of September11, 2001. The work of the Hamlet Study was set aside for several weeks as families and thecommunity came together in a time of tragedy and reassessment. This Hamlet Study was delayedas a result. We appreciate the patience of
The Town Board
and
the residents of ourcommunity
for enduring the long wait.Many other people contributed to this Hamlet Study by sharing their own experience andknowledge. Suffolk County Legis.
