Walmart twists advertising stats just like they want town to do with zoning!

Walmart proposes to build a 98,000 sq/ft building on the corner of Hospital Rd & Sunrise Hwy. There are multiple issues with this site. Mainly, it is not zoned for this kind of business and it will endanger the community! 

Just a few of the many problems: emergency access to Brookhaven Memorial Hospital will be compromised, huge increase of traffic on a small bridge, storm water run off to shallow aquifers- where our drinking water is from, BIG BOX in residential area, twisting the law for a zoning variance to build parking spaces, Local businesses will

be heavily impacted. Walmart's advertising is a GROSS manipulation of statistics stating E. Patchogue residents welcome this project. Seniors, children, renters, business owners, commuters, homeowners , tax payers & wildlife BEWARE!
