Starting last Tuesday, August 29th, drivers must slow down when passing Mamaroneck High School on the Boston Post Road. Senator George Latimer and Assemblyman Steven Otis, as well as local safety advocates unveiled new speed zone signs to protect both students and drivers.

Eugene Warrington, the owner of Walter’s Hot Dogs passed away recently at the age of ninety-five. He became as legendary and iconic as the hot dogs he made famous. His great-grandson, Gene-Christian Baca said, “when people think of Walter’s, besides the hot dogs, they think of the experience, they think of Uncle Gene”. LMCTV and The Local Live would like to give our condolences to the family.

The volunteer firefighters of Larchmont are raising funds for breast cancer research. They’re selling special-made t-shirts with all the profits going directly to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. For more information on how to purchase a t-shirt, go to www.larchmontfire.net.

This September, Mamaroneck and Larchmont officials are starting a composting program that will allow local residents to collect and dispose of food scraps such as fruit, vegetables, fish and even paper plates at the Village Recycling Center at 40 Forty Maxwell Avenue. The food waste will then be turned into reusable compost.
