Do Holtsville Ecology Center’s Parking Fees Bother You? Blog About It

Write about important Brookhaven Town issues in our new open blog.

Brookhaven Town recently set parking fees for the Holtsville Ecology Center starting at $5 per car/day or $10 for a yearlong pass only available to Brookhaven Town residents.

Residents responded to this in June with quite a few criticisms of this policy, and police say one woman in August decided to protest by punching the ticket booth.
