Huntington Town Hall Adds Security Barrier

HUNTINGTON, NY — A security barrier was added to Huntington Town Hall adjacent to the security desk, the town announced.

The decision was made after the town consulted with law enforcement and facility managers.

"This is a reasonable precaution that doesn’t impede government services," Town Supervisor Ed Smyth said. "It is a delicate balance between providing public access and employee and visitor safety."

Town Hall, at 100 Main St., Huntington, remains open to the public from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and during public meetings.
