Editorial - Something Strange In Your Neighborhood Who You Gonna Call? KPCA

When I think about the Kings Park Civic Association the theme from Ghostbusters always comes to mind. “If there’s something strange in your neighborhood
 Who you gonna call?
KPCA!
If there’s something weird and it don’t look good
 Who you gonna call?
KPCA

The Kings Park Civic Association (KPCA) is relentless in its goal to improve the community of Kings Park.  Both current and past boards have worked for a reasonable solution to the zoning issues in the industrial area.  The organization advocates for the enforcement of building codes and the upkeep of property and roads. KPCA recently worked to add a farmers market and summer concerts to the repertoire of activities Kings Park offers.

The Kings Park Civic Association does more than just advocate. KPCA members watch, listen and follow every move that Smithtown’s Town Board,  Planning Board and Board of Zoning Appeals make.  In the Town of Smithtown where work sessions are a rarity, where interdepartmental meetings have been canceled where decisions are made without public discussions it is refreshing that a group of like minded citizens are willing to get involved and keep the public informed. 

KPCA shows a passion and a vision for improving the quality of life for Kings Park residents. Agree with them or disagree with them when you leave one of their meetings you leave with a sense that things can happen.

Call them the eyes and ears of the community. Or you may call them busybodies but if there’s something strange in your neighborhood who you gonna call? KPCA!
