Morrissey Drive in Lake Peekskill

Tompkins Landscaping on Morrissey Drive in Putnam Valley

Since last August, there has been a(nother) controversy brewing in Lake Peekskill. Tompkins Landscaping has been fueling trucks at their business there. Last summer, I contacted the building department about the fueling. They said they would check into it.

I waited. I received no response.

Then I contacted them again. I was told that they were not fueling trucks. But they were fueling trucks. I had seen them.

So then, I emailed Councilwomen Whetsel and Keresey about the situation. I received no response.from either councilwoman.

I remember when the Carmelo crew started the suit thing, and I have never cared for it. The flannel shirt/blue jean board seemed more diligent.

Anyway, the LPID meeting was Saturday at Town Hall, not at our community center. Bob Tendy was dressed “casually” but sat in his chair above us, like the king. He was not as mean as he had been at the board meetings, but he was dismissive nonetheless.

There were a few people there – five residents. Priscilla was there. He didn’t invite her onto the dais with him. Skip, and another non-resident.

He talked about the $15,000 pork (earmark) that Vinnie Leibell got for the Singers Beach monument. Times are tough right now, and [...]
