Mr. Wink, who currently is a councilman on the North Hempstead Town Board, voted to deny the Glen Harbor application for a change of zone from industial use to multi-family residential use for the property on Shore Road in Glenwood Landing just south of the Glenwood Landing Power Station. The board ruled in favor of the applicant by a vote of 2 against, 5 in favor. At the time, Mr. Wink said he voted against the application because too many unanswered questions remained.
