Dear Neighbors,
Linda and I would like to wish everyone a Happy Easter and Passover. This is a great time of the year to celebrate the change of seasons and gather with family.
The Village will hold a public hearing at the Board meeting on Tuesday, April 7th to solicit input on the proposed 2026-27 budget.
The Osprey started returning to the nest platforms this week. Another sure sign of warmer days to come.
Have a great weekend!

Message from Asharoken Mayor Greg Letica:
March 26, 2026
Dear Neighbors:
I am pleased to share the tentative budget and supporting documents for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027. The proposed budget includes a 1.95% increase in Village taxes, with a total tax levy of $1,936,615. This is $28,117 below the New York State 2% tax cap.
Over the past 14 years during my tenure as Mayor, the Village has had an average annual tax increase of just 1.11% and has never exceeded the NYS 2% tax cap. In seven of those years, there was no tax increase. By comparison, several Long Island municipalities have exceeded the tax cap in recent years.
The Village remains in a strong financial position, with a healthy cash balance and well-funded reserves. For the past 10 years, the New York State Office of the State Comptroller has awarded Asharoken its highest fiscal stress rating: "No Designation."
This year's modest tax increase reflects higher costs driven by contractual obligations, externally set expenses, and general inflation. While we pursued cost savings and revenue opportunities, these increased expenses could not be fully offset. However, growth in the Village's assessment roll due to recent construction has helped lower the tax rate. The proposed budget maintains all current services and continues to fund future needs.
I thank Village Clerk Michelle Glennon and Treasurer Emily Hayes for their work in preparing this budget. Michelle's diligence and Emily's extensive experience helped ensure a practical and fiscally responsible plan.
A public hearing will be held during the regular Board Meeting on April 7th at 6:30pm at Village Hall. You may submit comments or questions in advance by email to
gletica@asharokenny.org or speak at the meeting. All submitted comments will be addressed and included in the official record.

Dear Neighbors:
The Village dinner dance to support our annual 4th of July fireworks will be held tomorrow at the Northport Yacht Club. There are still seats available; if you would like to join the festivities, please contact Carole Casamassima at 631-261-1895.
The Board of Trustees will be holding a work session on the proposed budget on Tuesday, March 24th at 4pm. The purpose of this meeting is to review the proposed budget prior to submitting it for public review and opinion. The proposed budget will be sent to the residents and posted on the website on Friday, March 27th for your review. The Board will conduct a public hearing at their next meeting on April 7th.
I remind you that this is the perfect time of year to cut the stems of ivy that are growing up the trunks of trees on your property. Ivy left to grow wild on a tree will ultimately kill it. Trees are an invaluable resource in the Village, and your help would be greatly appreciated.
Congratulations to Village resident and high school junior Josh Fields for receiving a second-place Grand Award in the Environmental Sciences category at the Charles Duggan Long Island Science and Engineering Fair. His research explored how advanced materials can remove industrial dyes from contaminated water while examining their impact on aquatic system recovery. In addition to the Grand Award, Josh received special recognition from the Naval Science Award Program, the Yale Science and Engineering Association, and the GENIUS Olympiad for the strength and environmental impact of his work. Great job, Josh!
Today is the first day of spring. It's been a long time coming. The Osprey should be back during the next two weeks, so keep your eyes peeled to welcome them back.
Have a great weekend!
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica
