Carnegie Library Property Subdivided

The Carnegie Library's parcel at 150 W. Main St next has to be transferred from Suffolk County to Patchogue Village.

The property of 150 W. Main St. in Patchogue, which has both the recently moved Carnegie Library and the Sixth District Court, has been subdivided at Monday’s Patchogue Village Board of Trustees meeting at Patchogue Village Hall.

The property now has the Carnegie Library on one parcel, and the court house with the parking lot on the other.

Village attorney Brian Egan said during Monday’s meeting that Suffolk County asked Patchogue Village to subdivide the property, and now that it's divided Patchogue Village mayor Paul Pontieri can ask county legislator Rob Calarco to make a motion to Suffolk County to approve the transfer of the parcel containing the library to Patchogue Village.
