Dear Neighbor,

"Progress Not Politics" has been the standard that Patchogue First has lived by since its beginning in 2001. In the next decade, our philosophy will be even more important. As we have all seen, our national, state, and county governments have allowed partisan political agendas to negatively influence policy decisions. The strength of Patchogue First lies not in our politics, but in our vision for the future and respect for the past. In putting Patchogue first, your elected officials have been instrumental in Copper Beech, Bay Village, ArtSpace, the YMCA, New Village at the Four Corners, and the upgrading of our sewage treatment plant. Each of these accomplishments has contributed to the revitalization of our community along with the Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts, new restaurants and successful shops on Main Street.

As Mayor of the Village of Patchogue, I am fortunate to have talented, community minded people working with me; the Village Board of Trustees and the Village Court governed by Village Justice Christopher P. McGuire. On Tuesday, March 16, you will have the opportunity to vote for three Trustees, and I ask that you support the Patchogue First Team. Your vote is critical to furthering the economic revitalization of Patchogue Village and will continue the vision of making Patchogue First.


Re-elect Gerard Crean, Village Trustee: Trustee Crean has played a critical role in the economic resurgence of our Village. As Commissioner for Economic Development he spearheaded the planning, development and implementation of all major downtown projects including Copper Beech, ArtSpace, New Village and the YMCA. He is a financial advisor whose expertise and input was instrumental in our Bond Rating upgrade from a BB to AA, which has saved the Village over a quarter of a million dollars in interest payments. To quote the Standard & Poors Report of January 8th 2010…"The stable outlook is based on our assessment of the Village's participation in the strong local economy…"

Re-elect William Hilton, Village Trustee: As Commissioner for Major Events, Trustee Hilton is responsible for the events that make Patchogue a special place to live, work and play, including the Great South Bay Music Festival, The Battle of the Bay power boat races and all the Parades from Memorial Day to the 4th of July and our Christmas Parade. Trustee Hilton has also overseen the rebuilding of the Patchogue Pool and he has been instrumental in the success of the Village Sailing Program.

Elect Joseph Keyes, Jr., Village Trustee: Trustee Keyes has served as Chairman of the Community Development Board, overseeing their budget and all major programs. As the newest member of the Village Board, he is the Commissioner of the Department of Public Works. He met his first major challenge during the recent blizzard in December that left a record snowfall of 27". Quick action by his crews made our roads clear, safe and the envy of municipalities far and wide.

On Election Day, March 16th, I ask that you support Progress Not Politics and cast your vote for the Patchogue First Team... Justice Christopher McGuire and Trustees Gerard Crean, William Hilton and Joseph Keyes, Jr.

Sincerely,
Paul V. Pontieri, Jr.
Mayor, Incorporated Village of Patchogue
