Suffolk residents should vote yes for clean water
Suffolk County Proposition Two asks Suffolk residents to approve a 0.125% increase in the county sales tax to fund the expansion of sewers and state-of-the-art septic systems that filter nitrogen out of wastewater. They are essential to the goal of clean water. Throughout the county, our wastewater infrastructure is inadequate. We need sewers in some places where there are none, and we must modernize outdated and failing cesspools and septic systems where sewers are not possible.
