LYNNE C. NOWICK

Republican

BACKGROUND:

• Nowick, who declined to give her age, is seeking her third term on the Town Board. She also is running on the Conservative Party line.
• Prior to her election, the St. James resident served 12 years in the Suffolk County Legislature representing the 13th District. Before that, she was Smithtown tax receiver for six years.
• Nowick graduated from Suffolk County Community College with an associate degree in business.

ISSUES:

• Nowick said that if reelected, she would continue to focus on quality of life issues, including improvements to town parks and beaches, citing recent projects at Flynn Memorial Park and Landing Avenue Country Club.
• As councilwoman she said she helped oversee redevelopment of "blighted" parcels such as the former concrete plant on Route 25, soon to be a CarMax car dealership, and the former Courtesy Inn on Jericho Turnpike, now the site of Fieldstone at Commack’s 55 and older apartments.
• She also pointed to the town’s revitalization work in St. James and said the work would continue elsewhere, including Kings Park.
