The board authorized use of the Village Community Center auditorium for a cooperative annual meeting at 100 Clinton Avenue (DeKalb/Delcap management) and approved a contract with Starfire Corporation for a fireworks display at Wilson Park on July 12, 2025, at a cost of $10,000 with a rain date of July 19. Village officials said fireworks were moved from Memorial Park to Wilson Park because Memorial Park’s usual staging area is under school construction and the new turf likely would not allow fireworks staging.

Trustees also approved a pilot farmer’s market run by NYU Langone in Parking Field Number 1 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on selected Thursdays; the hospital will lead event setup, cleanup and safety. The board noted the field has limited spaces and will publicize dates.

The board approved membership for six new Mineola Fire Department members — Helder Gomez Alvez, Anthony Ferreira, Justin Gandarella, Charles Madine, Matthew Lopes and Shane Kelly — and advanced two routine personnel items: (1) Marlene Barbosa’s request to execute an employee health-benefit buyback option pursuant to the collective bargaining agreement, and (2) the appointment of Maria Palumbo as secretary to the Architectural Review Board effective March 6, 2025.

Most work-session items were approved by motion with the typical “all in favor” voice vote. Starfire’s fireworks contract was approved on a motion by Deputy Mayor Sartori and seconded by Trustee Casado; the motion carried. The board directed staff to coordinate logistics and public notice for events.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","February 19, 2025 Public Hearing/Work Session","oneSentenceSummary","During the meeting’s work session trustees approved a set of routine resolutions: the community center use for a co-op meeting, a $10,000 fireworks contract for July 12 at Wilson Park, a NYU Langone farmer’s market pilot in Parking Field 1, six fire-department membership promotions, and two staff personnel actions.","taxTitle","Mineola, Nassau County, New York","taxId",68508,"location","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6316656,"Mineola trustees approve local‑law amendment tightening parking rules for snowfall and declared snow emergencies",391,2570000,2961000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2376438-c5dbeb938edc988caa0cbe22d57c6360&start=2570&end=2961","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2376438-c5dbeb938edc988caa0cbe22d57c6360/thumbnail_2570000.jpg","/articles/6316656/Mineola/Nassau-County/New-York/Mineola-trustees-approve-locallaw-amendment-tightening-parking-rules-for-snowfall-and-declared-snow-emergencies","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6316656-c0c56d5875adbf90abb9e29e31297975/orig.mp4?Expires=1771193673&Signature=lFAVf~WW2OgVZsNKeQEFr4Y1Ww0Aayu4wpYsOyNCpFdpXAjsxu2CZN0QcqM0ZLum8YhF3SDkYkPSJLhCSuuiAg5ci0w5p3ANWf~NJDdPJzI-HCSvXsIrX8jDd5CwEedPDFlaTan6CTwsfr93KvEcCs~mFNe0dLgShcZ6LCAa01ReAPZ9gz8zgyxT6Aw9USAASFuBgi2ZC2Fqc~-RFclZywyBHJT2uHT827ai6gPuoKua3vok2XBRQuk2t~WtUuT8a9~6f~T9pptnwrzf1tTJmxegGxmeBDnCZBUgmVe1GzMv1pY7HBWL9~fqPhJ6ldrlaZ99aX9wGXUpgHX5sWMyag__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mineola Board of Trustees approved a proposed local-law amendment to Section 5-115 of the municipal code to clarify vehicle removal requirements during snowfall and declared snow emergencies.

Village counsel explained the change adds two explicit triggers to existing winter-parking rules: (1) when two inches or more of snow are forecast and (2) when the mayor declares a snow emergency, even if forecast accumulation is below two inches. The change responds to requests from the village court and aims to reduce conflicts that hinder plowing and street treatment.

Mr. Gibbons said the village provides multiple notification channels — email and text alerts, social media, Channel 18, the village website and an annual sanitation mailer — and urged residents to sign up for alerts. He noted municipal lots and garages remain available to residents during snow events and emphasized that removal facilitates safer, more effective plowing.

Trustees praised the DPW’s winter operations and said the clarified rule will help crews and reduce post-storm hazards. The board approved the amendment by motion; public comment was not offered during the hearing because no members of the public remained in the chamber.

The motion was made by Deputy Mayor Sartori and seconded by Trustee Clark; the motion carried.","The board approved an amendment requiring vehicle removal from public streets when two or more inches of snow are forecast or when the mayor declares a snow emergency, along with expanded public-notification expectations.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6316659,"Board clears new carry‑out ‘Pastaru’ for 133 Mineola Boulevard; owner outlines fresh‑pasta concept",601,1418000,2019000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2376438-c5dbeb938edc988caa0cbe22d57c6360&start=1418&end=2019","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2376438-c5dbeb938edc988caa0cbe22d57c6360/thumbnail_1418000.jpg","/articles/6316659/Mineola/Nassau-County/New-York/Board-clears-new-carryout-Pastaru-for-133-Mineola-Boulevard-owner-outlines-freshpasta-concept","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6316659-9d25501172f941c148542cdade7660b3/orig.mp4?Expires=1771193673&Signature=YNgYmha5me~QG6~fbiB7NHbJ470xLzp-R3YNBn3qB-JSgVydcLM-s86sSd9MfWcMNkhCmfgGtufezl36SHo6isYTdAguFSoSoeA4lfocw3RU7zMX5xMYi8aW1NrIRe-C1SxnTySinEwXBVXsUaogaOGCWu4OFS4emf3X6ZNoZAEiDKj3naMBQ6xp6sfQXkaCJ15N8oIKV85BGrkl-g0-5vZBtKYtX1wEFuvwMxhMn9dPigU2QQGZ1wZ0Od1kzaOoegSMRlzNROPhvRXmUwpN5OQpqZ3fJwBqeXgik-jthqYreOco3Fh6IgJQctRyOUbokiPdsnVFYkpRxBEgHBd0Fg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mineola Board of Trustees on Wednesday approved a special-permit application to open a carry-out fresh-pasta restaurant called Pastaru at 133 Mineola Boulevard.

Applicant Simone Pulieri told the board the concept is a fast-casual, build-your-own pasta operation in which customers choose pasta shapes and sauces; the business will make fresh pasta on-site each day and offer a small selection of hot, ready-to-eat sides. Pulieri said the space is about 1,500 square feet and the operation will staff four to five employees per shift.

Pulieri said the buildout will include a small back-of-house kitchen, a restroom and refrigeration and estimated the construction timeline at two to three months from approval. “From the day of the approval, I believe, you know, no more than 2 or 3 months altogether,” Pulieri said when asked about the timeline.

The board and staff discussed refuse and loading access. Village staff reminded the applicant that new food-service tenants typically must arrange private carting rather than relying on curbside pickup; Pulieri said she will work with the landlord and the village to find a solution. The applicant also said she plans to participate in third-party delivery services such as DoorDash and Grubhub.

Trustees also raised parking concerns for the busy Mineola Boulevard corridor and encouraged the applicant to direct customers and delivery drivers to nearby municipal lots and garages. Deputy Mayor Sartori and others noted that daytime parking can be tight and that enforcement is the responsibility of police if drivers double-park.

The motion to approve the special use permit was made by Deputy Mayor Sartori and seconded by Trustee Casado; Trustees Clark, Casado, Soloski, Sartori and Mayor Ferrer voted in favor. The board asked the applicant to coordinate with building department staff (Mr. O'Keefe) on signage, permits and inspections before opening.","Trustees approved a special permit for Pastaru, a fast-casual fresh-pasta carryout to occupy roughly 1,500 square feet at 133 Mineola Boulevard.

The cooking studio, proposed by Mineola Metro LLC and presented by owner Victor McNulty and Rachel Cronin of Jambertone Architects, will occupy about 2,000 square feet in the Morgan Park building and operate by reservation only with a 24-person class maximum. The applicant told the board the business will use induction burners and electric equipment rather than open flame.

The permit matters because the studio will be a new special use in the village's B-1/B-2 zoning district and will require coordination with building and fire officials before opening. Rachel Cronin described the planned layout and mechanical approach and said the company will install additional ventilation (an ERV system) and modify the existing sprinkler system to meet code requirements. “We put in an ERV system … it moves more air,” Cronin said, describing the air-exchange approach the firm uses at its other locations.

McNulty said the studio runs evening classes most weekdays and additional classes on weekends, with staff on site for several hours for setup and cleanup: “Classes are generally in the evening, 06:30 to 08:30 … and on the weekends we will run 2, possibly 3 classes,” he said. He also said the studio intends to seek a beer-and-wine liquor license and expected most guests to have about one drink during the meal service.

Board members asked about garbage, parking and noise. McNulty estimated daily waste at about two 55-gallon bags and said he plans to secure a small dumpster. Deputy Mayor Sartori raised parking as a potential issue and asked the applicant to direct customers to the nearby municipal parking garage; McNulty said the business already notifies customers of nearby lots and parking apps at other locations.

The board approved the special permit by roll call. The motion to approve was made by Deputy Mayor Sartori and seconded by Trustee Casado; Trustees Clark and Soloski and Mayor Ferrer joined Sartori and Casado in voting yes.

The trustees and staff asked the applicant to remain in contact with village building department staff, including Mr. O'Keefe, for sign, inspection and certificate-of-occupancy steps before opening.","The Mineola Board of Trustees voted to approve a special-permit application from Mineola Metro LLC to open a recreational cooking studio at 199 Second Street after a public hearing and questions about ventilation, hours and parking.","actionData","errors"]
