You Have It Or You Don’t

To anyone following the mayoral race in North Haven, the Express reported this passage from the Zoom debate last week regarding the merits of erecting a cell tower in our village:

“On the need for better cell service, [Jack] Reiser said nobody wanted a tower in their backyard. [Chris] Fiore said WLNG’s plan to replace its aging broadcast tower with a monopole promised better cell signals for North Haven. [Terie] Diat said it was unlikely the Sag Harbor Village Board would approve a new WLNG tower.”

Mr. Reiser’s comment highlighted what I hope we all believe: Unless a suitable location can be found that won’t degrade our quality of life, then we shouldn’t be moving forward. Mr. Fiore sensibly suggested that taking a wait-and-see approach to the possibility of a WLNG location could likely solve our problem here in North Haven.

For me, it all comes down to character and integrity. Either you have it or you don’t.
