Dirty Streets on 8th Avenue and 86th Street – Susan Zhuang Held a Town Hall
People in Bensonhurst are angry that illegal vending is happening on 86th Street. Councilwoman Susan Zhuang held a town hall meeting.
People complained about 8th Avenue and 86th Street near Bay Parkway are the worst. (Story and video)
Pix News revealed that store owners were illegally renting the space in front of their shop to these vendors! (Info)
People are upset that vendors are cooking on the street. One resident said that the meeting, “Do something about it – don’t talk.”
The amount of garbage is substantial. One woman said she was embarrassed about where she lived because the streets are so dirty.
Years ago, Ari Kagan had the area cleaned up. The vendors returned and he had to have someone clear the area consistently.
Councilwoman Zhuang said that she wants to set up one area where people can sell items. I am surprised she didn’t clear the whole street like Kagan did.
Hugs,
