• North Hempstead board approves Hillside Islamic Center expansion plan (longislandpress.com) — North Hempstead’s Town Board has conditionally approved the Hillside Islamic Center’s expansion as part of a legal settlement, adding detailed traffic, parking, and operational restrictions meant to address neighborhood concerns. The deal ends costly litigation, withdraws a state appeal, and brings in outside counsel, while the board also filled the long-vacant town comptroller post with Luigi Devito.
