Whose Voting on the Casino in Coney Island? Community Advisory Committee (CAC)
A Community Advisory Committee (CAC) with six members appointed by local elected officials will review each casino application. The Governor, Mayor, Senator, assemblyman, Brooklyn Borough President and Councilman will appoint a representative.
Each CAC will hold at least two public hearings, and must hold a final vote on the applications by September 30th.
So far these elected leaders have said who is representing them:
1) Assemblyman Alec Brooks-Krasny has appointed Marissa Solomon, a member of the Coney Island community to serve as his representative on the CAC.
2) Senator Jessica Spanton said she is appointing herself for the vote.
3) Justin Brannan said on Facebook that he is appointing himself for the vote.
These three members will share who they appointed soon:
1) NYS Governor
2) NYC Mayor
3) Brooklyn Borough President
