REGARDING SANITARY DISTRICT 2 VOTE

First, I was disappointed that your editorial board did not write an editorial supporting the District prior to the vote. Second, Newsday's editors were "clueless" in their endorsement to disolve as witnessed by the overwhelming 73% total vote, 81% in Baldwin, in favor of retaining the District. I have been a resident of Baldwin for 62 years, a volunteer firefighter for 45, and by the way a "lifelong": Democrat. Baldwin's residents were insulted by outsiders atempts, mostly untrue, to convince us to dislove the District. They and Newsday were apparently not aware of over 80 years of continued exceptional services provided by the District. Obviously, consolidation in this case will not necessarily provide better service. All of Baldwin is proud of all the District workers during the aftermat of Superstorm Sandy. Just ask all those affected by flooding for their opinion!

Please include my above comment as a "Letter to the Editor". Thank you.
