Nassau County Executive, Ed Mangano announced the closing of half the precincts in Nassau County. Among the precincts scheduled to be closed or more accurately turned into community centers is the 5th Precinct on Dutch Broadway in Elmont.
Of particular interest to Elmont residents is the broken promise from county officials to “not close the 5th precinct”. During the election debate of 2011, ex-county legislator, John Ciotti, emphatically pronounced that the 5th was not on the chopping block. Central to his argument for reelection was the customary carrot of more services, and immunization from prospective county cuts.
