Editor's Note: Below is a Letter to the Editor sent by Legis. Sarah Anker.
At a recent meeting with the Mount Sinai Advisory Committee, information was discussed regarding the funding for the Mount Sinai Harbor Dredging Project. I would like to reassure the community that the $2.1 million earmarked for the project remains intact.
The Town of Brookhaven has designated Mt. Sinai Harbor as a Marine Sanctuary in recognition of its diverse natural resources. The intent of the dredging project is to improve and protect the harbor while enhancing its safety, use and sustainability.
I will continue to make this project a top priority, and will work hard to ensure that the harbor remains an economical and cultural resource for our community, boaters and families.
Sincerely,
Sarah Anker
Suffolk County Legislator, Sixth District
