Hempstead Mobile Town Hall

Hempstead Town Councilman Anthony Santino and the town’s Mobile Town Hall will stop at the Hewlett Train Station (Franklin Avenue, Hewlett) on Sunday, October 21, 2012 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. With many of the town’s programs and services on board, the Mobile Town Hall is a convenient one-stop shop for residents of America’s largest township.

“The Hempstead Mobile Town Hall offers residents access to a number of great services, such as passports, information on pet adoptions, registration forms for the Child I.D. Program and community assistance,” stated Santino. “I encourage all residents to stop by the Hewlett Train Station on October 21st.”

One of the most important services offered by the Mobile Town Hall is the Child I.D. Program. As the holiday season approaches, many parents will be shopping in heavily populated department stores and shopping malls, a time when children are more likely to become separated from them. Through the town’s Child I.D. Program, a child’s picture and fingerprints are taken, information that can help reunite a lost child with their parents in the event of an emergency.

For those looking to escape the winter for warmer climates, many destinations require a passport. At the Mobile Town Hall, applying for a passport will take just minutes of your time. Just be sure to bring proof of United States Citizenship (certified copy of birth certificate, previous passport or Certificate of Naturalization) and proof of identity (a driver’s license or previous passport.) Fees vary.

What’s more, Santino will be on hand to answer questions and hear concerns from the residents of Hewlett.

“Our Mobile Town Hall is an invaluable resource for residents of Hempstead Town,” concluded Santino. “I look forward to seeing many Hewlett neighbors on October 21st.”
