INSURANCE FORUM Legislator Denise Ford will host a meeting with representatives from the State of New York Insurance Department to answer questions about insurance on Thursday, March 18, at 7 pm, 6th floor, Long Beach City Hall. This Forum will cover life, health, automobile and homeowner’s insurance, and all concerned residents are invited to attend. For more information, please call Legislator Ford’s office at 516-571-6204.
BLOCK CAPTAINS NEEDED Block Captains are the eyes and ears of their block and are important conduits of neighborhood concerns. Issues identified through our block captains are brought forward from WEN to City Hall. In addition, Block Captains help with distribution of our newsletter. Our newsletter and our WEN communication network are critical to our effectiveness. Just look at the beach entrance pictured at the top of the Beach Survey page or read about the new library on our Resource Info page for two examples of what we’ve been able to do with the support of our neighbors. These efforts rely on effective communication and grass roots efforts at the block level. Won’t you please help? If you can serve as a block captain, or if you’d like to find out more about what is needed, please click here to send an email with your name, street address, telephone number, and indicate whether you are located at the beach or bay end of your street. We need as many volunteers as are willing to help! So, step up and take part in our efforts to improve the West End.
