It's no April fool's joke; Northport village will start allowing sidewalk dining April 1.
After a standing-room-only crowd filed into Village Hall for a public hearing on the topic March 18, over two dozen people got up to speak, most in favor of the village's proposal.
Times of Northport reporter Karen Forman tells us all about it here.

There’s no shortage of debate about how to fix the economy. To us, there’s no question. Fixing the economy is a grassroots effort that starts right here.
The Huntington Township Business Council --an alliance of chambers of com-merce, business organizations, community and civic groups, government
officials and other community stakeholders--is attacking the economic crisis with initiatives that will get the ball rolling where it matters most... right here in our own backyards.
The core of this multi-faceted approach is a simple concept --Buy Locally--because money spent in the community stays in the community.
When businesses choose to do business with local vendors, and when consumers choose to shop in their downtown areas and at locally owned stores, the whole community benefits. It’s a bottom-up approach that will start economic recovery where it counts most --right here.
BUY LOCALLY HUNTINGTON TOWNSHIP BUSINESS COUNCIL
We Mean Business.
