Dear Paul

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns regarding the recent construction projects and the ongoing parking issues in Hartsdale, which have significantly impacted local businesses and the community as a whole. While I understand the need for improvements, it has become increasingly difficult for both residents and visitors to access the businesses in our town.

Over the past few months, many local establishments have seen a decline in foot traffic, as the construction has led to street closures, limited access, and a shortage of parking spaces. With the current state of affairs, it has become more challenging for customers to shop, dine, and support these local businesses. As a result, many of these businesses, which are vital to the character and economy of Hartsdale, are struggling to remain afloat.

I kindly ask that the town take further action to promote and support local businesses during this challenging time. This could include measures such as:

1. Increasing Public Awareness: Launching a marketing campaign to remind residents and visitors that businesses in Hartsdale are still open and welcoming customers despite the construction.

2. Temporary Parking Solutions: Exploring options for additional parking or temporarily reducing parking restrictions to help ease the situation.

3. Enhancing Communication: Providing more frequent updates regarding construction timelines and detours so that customers can plan their visits accordingly.

The businesses in Hartsdale contribute to the vibrant culture of our community, and their success is vital to maintaining the town’s unique charm and economic health. I believe that with thoughtful support, we can help these businesses thrive even through the current challenges.

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and to seeing further steps being taken to support our local businesses.

We currently own VEGA Mexican, NH 44 Indian and MASKA Indian on Hartsdale Ave.

The 2 bakery stores , Rite Aid, went out of business.
