Caregiver Workshop

The Village of Great Neck Plaza is seeking volunteers to assist on its Senior Span Program, which provides projects and programs for our senior citizens. We are looking for volunteers to "Call a Friend," making contact with one of our shut in seniors for companionship and friendship. Other similar tasks need volunteers, such as helping a senior with an arts & craft project, reading poetry to seniors, assiting in errands, etc.

There are also seminars held regularly at Village Hall. Each seminar is on a separate topic focusing on health, nutrition, aging issues, managing finances, and general senior education. Candidates must have professional expertise in an area and be comfortable with public speaking. For further information, please contact Mayor's Assistant, at (516) 482-4500, or mayorsassistant@greatneckplaza.net.

Mission Statement

The Village of Great Neck Plaza was incorporated in on May 3, 1930. The Plaza, centrally located within the the Great Neck Peninsula, and by virtue of it being a hub with the Long Island Railroad's Great Neck Station, contains unique, varied, upscale shops and restaurants found on our main street, "Middle Neck Road."

Great Neck Plaza encompasses a busy commercial district, three parks, as well as a residential section comprised of many multiple dwellings and private homes. Although geographically the Village measures only a third of a square mile, it boasts a vibrant downtown with a railroad station (Great Neck Branch of the Long Island Railroad), over 250 retail stores and service establishments, almost 90 multiple-family apartment buildings, 148 single family homes, approximately 40 office buildings, 2 four star hotels, a nursing home, a senior independent living facility and one assisted-care living facility.

Description

Help improve parking safety and compliance with handicapped parking laws.

The Handicapped Parking Violations Bureau, which will be manned by volunteers, will help to increase and improve the ability of handicapped and disabled persons to utilize the services stores and faciltieis within the Village by ensuring their access to designated spaces within the village.
