The Long Beach Water Transmission Department will conduct Fall hydrant flushing beginning Saturday, November 1 through November 15 between the hours of 9pm and 5am.

This semi-annual flushing is done to remove sediments from the system and helps to ensure proper water pressure. During this time, you may experience some low pressure or water discoloration. The process will begin on Riverside Boulevard and Park Avenue and is expected to proceed both east and west, one to two blocks each night. We will be updating the approximate location of flushing daily.

Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday, November 2nd.

Make sure to turn your clocks back an hour and don’t forget to change the batteries in your household smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

We would also like to remind everyone to drive safely. Although we will all have an extra hour of sleep this weekend, some drivers may struggle with drowsiness as they adjust to the change. Darkened roads can also make it harder to spot pedestrians and cyclists.

The Holocaust Memorial Committee of Long Island will hold a Kristallnacht Commemoration Ceremony on Sunday, November 2. Join city, county, and state officials, religious leaders from local congregations, and Holocaust survivors for prayer, remembrance, and testimony.

The ceremony begins at 1:00 pm on the 6th floor of City Hall.

Be advised, Nassau County Department of Health (DOH) is currently deploying raccoon rabies vaccine baits in our area. The baits are small brown cubes that contain a plastic pouch filled with the vaccine and are being dispersed in areas where raccoons may frequent. DOH reports these vaccines are not harmful to dogs and cats, but residents should avoid touching them if possible.
