One man in particular lets his voice be heard loud and clear Tuesday night.
The Port Washington Board of Education meeting lasted three hours Tuesday night in the Schreiber High School auditorium, and residents wanting to be heard waited for an opportunity to speak. Resident Hank Ratner claimed he hadn't heard the board open community comments earlier. He was irate about approved raises for the three assistant superintendents. “I’d like to poll the board, beginning with seat number one,” Ratner said. “Seat number one, did you vote yes or no on the raises for the three assistant superintendents?” No answer. “Seat number two, did you vote yes or no on the raises for the three assistant superintendents?"
