Asharoken's new full-time police officer Chris Amendolare.
At our November Board of Trustees meeting, the Village swore in our new full-time police officer,
Chris Amendolare. Village Trustee/Police Commissioner Mel Ettinger, Officer-in-Charge Ray
Mahdesian and I had the pleasure of interviewing Chris Amendolare for the position.

Kerry Kruckle and Carole Casamassima present Mayor Letica with a framed original of Matt Davies's centennial logo.
Chris is a terrific candidate, and I am sure that he will be an
exceptional member of the police force. Chris will be moving over to the Asharoken Police Department from the
New York State Troopers.
The village received a plaque from Terry Reid of the Northport
Historical Society in honor of the Village's centennial.
Special thanks to Carole Casamassima and Kerry Kruckle for presenting one of Matt Davies's
original centennial logos, now proudly displayed at Village Hall.
In August, resident Annie Dwyer, her brother Liam and friends organized a beach cleanup from
the power plant to the seawall, collecting a large amount of debris. Thank you for your
environmental efforts!
Rita Rover does it again with her prize-winning mums!
A big thank-you to Rita Rover for showcasing her award-winning mum on the Village stoop.
Every year, Rita creates a horticultural wonder that she kindly shares with the residents. Be sure to come by Village Hall and see her astounding mum in person.

LEGAL NOTICE: Public Hearing:
Proposed Local Law #2 for 2025
December 2
A public hearing will be held by the Board of Trustees on Tuesday, December 2, 2025 at 6:30pm for the adoption of Local Law 2-2025 of the Incorporated Village of Asharoken entitled, "A local law amending chapter 104-6 of the code of the Village of Asharoken entitled, 'Written Notice of Defects Required.'"
I want to thank the Asharoken Police Department under the leadership of Officer-in-Charge Ray Mahdesian for the outstanding job they did during the recent nor'easter. They kept traffic moving throughout the storm and were always available to respond to any emergencies in the Village.
I'm pleased to report that the seawall weathered the storm with no noticeable damage. The repairs completed this spring performed exactly as expected, and none of the large stones shifted.
Special thanks to Emergency Manager Bill Raisch for securing a ten-year DEC permit that allows immediate reconstruction of Asharoken Avenue in the beach lot and seawall section should it be damaged by a storm. Without this permit, both emergency and final repairs would have been far more complicated and time-consuming.
The Village will hold two public hearings at the next Board meeting on November 5th. The first will invite comments on the Village's new Storm Water Management Plan, and the second will address proposed amendments to Section 104-6 (Written Notices of Defects) of Chapter 104 (Streets and Sidewalks) of the Village Code.
Officer Matt Carrello with his wife and son, Officer-in-Charge Ray Mahdesian, Mayor Greg Letica, Police Commisioner Mel Ettinger.
Copies of the Storm Water Management Plan and the proposed local law amendments are posted here on the Village website, and also available for review at Village Hall. If you wish to comment but cannot attend the meeting, please email your suggestions to Village Clerk Michelle Glennon at mglennon@asharokenny.org.
At this month's BOT meeting, the Village appointed its newest part-time police officer Matthew Carrello. Matt is an extremely well-trained and decorated member of the Suffolk County Police Department. I welcome him to our department and expect that he will be a terrific addition.
Wishing you a great fall weekend and a happy Halloween!
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica
