Tom Stanten is Challenging Andrew Gounardes for the NYS Senate Seat – District 26

Tom Stanten announced that he is running for the NY State Senate to represent District 26. He is challenging Andrew Gounardes for the seat.

I do not know Tom Stanten, but many people in Bay Ridge do and they shared the flyer above about Tom’s fundraiser on March 25th at Mussels and More at 8001 – 5th Avenue at 6:30 pm.

I am very interested in finding out more about Tom, as we need someone who is interested in fighting for Brooklyn!

So far I know this about Tom Stanten:

1) He is a retired NYPD detective and US Navy Veteran. *This is a good thing – he’s not a professional politician (like Steve Chan).

2) After retiring from the NYPD, Stanten worked as a K9 handler specializing in bomb detection for a private security firm at The United Nations, the Times Square Theater District and Sports Arenas. *This is also good because he may have some ideas to stop the robberies in the area. Senator Gounardes has never addressed crime in our area.

3) Tom’s running to make our streets safer. This is also good because Andrew Gounardes and Transportation Alternatives aren’t improving our streets. We see chaos happening with the electric bikes/scooters and speeding, but Senator Gounardes has no solutions, even though many people have asked him to take action.

4) Tom Stanten is a parent and he’s interested in improving schools. Senator Andrew Gounardes let the NYS government cut afterschool programs in our district two years in a row. Gounardes failed to tell the parents about the cut, so they could make alternate plans for their children. When the parents protested, Senator Gounardes did not stand with parents. Gounardes didn’t even speak out against the defunding of afterschool on social media.

5) Tom Staten has written that he will fight for lower taxes. Senator Gounardes told us that Marty Golden was at fault for the high property taxes. Andrew Gounardes said he was going to fix the high property taxes. Gounardes failed to do anything about taxes on his first year in office, I wrote to him. Senator Gounardes responded that he would get it done the following year. Andrew Gouanardes hasn’t discussed property taxes in Albany in years. He just doesn’t care!

Costs are up in NYC in almost every category, but Senator Gounardes has not taken action:

Our community needs a person who is brave and can speak out for the community.

We shouldn’t see Senator Gounardes making videos to promote Lyft GetA/Citibikes OR GetAround cars, which used our streets to store their cars (Play the video below). GetAround quickly went out of business and the signs for their parking spots were quietly removed. Click on the video below to hear Andrew Gounardes speak about this company.

When our neighbors on 73rd Street had squatters on their block, Andrew Gounardes did not help them. He’s an attorney and he knows the law. Why didn’t he help? Info:

We need someone who can hold community meetings and talk with Ridgites about street safety and other issues in our district. Senator Gounardes just wants to make silly videos and post graphics to social media.

Andrew Gounardes failed to tell the community when NYC contacted him that a homeless shelter would be put on 4th Avenue in Bay Ridge. Brooklyn residents obtained the letter Gounardes received through a FOIA request (Freedom of Information Act).

Brooklyn Roots’ Beautiful Window – For Easter

Chef Thomas Perone was outside his restaurant, Brooklyn Roots at 8720 – 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge.

He was talking about his dish, Octopus Ragu, so octopus lovers, go enjoy it. I had no interest in that, but I noticed his beautifully painted window! I love when businesses decorate!

Perone also shared that he is thinking about having a cooking class at his other restaurant, The Corner on 86th Street and 3rd Avenue. See here: https://shorturl.at/mmIug

Hii Cannabis Dispensary is Opening on 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge – Next to Starbucks

Hii Cannabis Dispensary is opening at 9206 – 3rd Avenue.

For some people, it’s just another marijuana store in the neighborhood.

Just like liquor stores, children can not make purchases at the dispensaries. In the past, the weed shops were not legal dispensaries and some teens were able to purchase. But the dispensaries have security and we haven’t heard of any purchases made by teens.

There is a Hii Cannabis Dispensary in Williamsburg and they deliver the weed: https://hiinyc.com/shop/brooklyn so they will probably do the same here in Bay Ridge.
