Lester Chang Shared His Votes on the Budget
Assemblyman Lester Chang shared his votes on the budget.
All politicians should be sharing this information on their social media. We don’t need to see pictures of politicians feet, their lunch or them clowning around. We need to know if they are representing Brooklynites.

Owls Head Park Was Cleaned Well
Owls Head Park is looking sharp! NYC Parks Department did some deep cleaning like someone was having a wedding or gala at the park this weekend!
Look at all of those full bags of garbage! The park was spotless – no paper, wrappers or plastic anywhere!
The Parks Department has a few piles of mulch that they were distributing out throughout the park. It looks nice:

Families Need Answers From Visitation Academy
On February 6th, Visitation Academy in Bay Ridge announced they were closing the school and monastery and selling the property. (Info) Parents chose Visitation Academy for their daughters, so Visitation should take the time to help and communicate better with these families now.
In both news stories this week, the parents of Visitation students want to keep the school open. They are willing to raise money for the school. (See videos here and here) Many parents just want answers as they are hearing different things.
For some students at Visitation, this will be the second school closure they are going through (as they attended Visitation when they elementary school closed.)
In March, Fontbonne High School announced they will have a middle school program for the students from Visitation. (Info here)
Last October, parents raised over $100,000 for the school. Why did the school ask parents to raise money if they were closing? (See video)
Visitation School should call the parents in and set up a Zoom Meeting for those who can’t attend.
Let the parents ask all the questions they have. The school should be frank with the parents because the parents don’t understand what is going on. Many parents want to know if they could have raise enough money to keep the school open.
I’m surprised that the Bishop Robert J. Brennan didn’t call the families together and pray with them.
The Bay Ridge Community is bracing for the worst. This school is in the center of a quiet area.
We all know what happened at Angel Guardian Home. The Sisters of Mercy were part of that community for over 100 years and then they just cashed out. They went silent and they didn’t care what happened to the building/property or groups connected to Angel Guardian Home. (See here)
Politicians acted as if they were concerned about landmarking. (See here) If you see the building now, landmarking did nothing to stop the overdevelopment around it.

Why Isn’t the 68th Precinct Ticketing Illegally Parked Cars on 4th Avenue and 94th Street?
The manager of Hunter Steakhouse came to Community Board 10 tonight to talk about the corner of 94th Street and 4th Avenue.
NYC is doing construction on 4th Avenue and 95th Street to install an elevator to the train.
The construction crew was going to shut down 4th Avenue between 94th and 95th Street, but the manager of Hunter’s was able to get them to leave a spot for Access-A-Ride to pull up on 94th Street and 4th Avenue. This also allows for the residents in that area to put out their garbage for pickup.
There is a clear no standing sign on that spot on 4th Avenue and 94th Street, but people keep parking there. Access-A-Ride can’t pull up and let people out there.
Cars parking in the no standing zone are not getting ticketed. The police went to the location, but did not ticket the illegally parked cars. Why? This is an easy one!
Ticket the illegally parked cars, so seniors can use the Access-A-Ride and go to Hunter’s Restaurant with their family and friends! It is a season of celebrations, so politicians and the police should be helping people have access to this restaurant and street!
Leadership here is almost non-existent and this restaurant shouldn’t have to deal with this!

CB 10 Comments About 86th Street in Bay Ridge
At the end of April’s Community Board 10 Meeting, someone asked: Is there anything new happening on 86th Street in terms of development?
Josephine’s Response: “Short answer, no. I mean there is no other plans than the vision plans that were put out some time ago. We get that call quite often, but but we don’t have an update. It is horrible.“
