Hey, everybody! I'm back with your new copy of the Sachem Daily. Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about what's happening these days in town. Today you'll learn about:

  • Five open houses to check out this weekend.
  • Brookhaven Town's voting district map challenged by community.
  • Long Island's biggest Wednesday news stories.

But first, today's weather:

Rain and a t-storm; breezy. High: 74 low: 50.

Here are the top three stories today in Sachem:

  1. Check out these five open houses in the Town of Brookhaven. These are the newest open houses all happening within a week and you can learn more about the listing by clicking on the photo of the home. Prices have finally dipped for homes on the island, so be sure to check out our weekly real estate updates. (Sachem Patch)
  2. Brookhaven Town's newly released voting district map challenged by the community. Community members claim it segregates minority communities rather than unite areas. Read more about the specifics of the voting district map in the link. (Sachem Patch)
  3. Check out the biggest stories from Wednesday on Patch P.M. We've done you the favor of rounding up Long Island's news into one article, so you don't miss a single story! Click on the link to see what went on throughout the island on Wednesday. (Patch)
