Scott Davis is running for Nassau County Legislator, 1st District

Scott Davis

SCOTT DAVIS 
Democratic
BACKGROUND:

  • Davis, 61, lives in Rockville Centre and grew up in the Village of Hempstead.
  • He is a graduate of SUNY Buffalo and Hofstra Law School.
  • He is an attorney in private practice working on a range of matters, and runs his own firm in Queens.

ISSUES:

  • Davis said the biggest concern facing local lawmakers “is keeping Nassau affordable” for residents so they can “stay here and live here.”
  • He said he would keep an eye on plans to develop the Nassau Hub property to make sure new development does not have a negative impact on traffic and ensures employment opportunities for Hempstead residents. The roles must be substantial, he said — “not just sweeping the floor” — and give workers “an opportunity to move up into the company.”
  • He said he would watch to make sure county tax revenue is spent wisely and that “what we’re collecting is implemented in a fiscally responsible and efficient way.”

'Tears of joy that we made it' Lt. Col. Sean Boughal, of the 106th Rescue Wing, based in the Hamptons, spoke about his team's mission to perform rescue operations in Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma. NewsdayTV's Ken Buffa reports.
