Brannan Throws Breadcrumbs to Home Owners
While lobbyists salivate over the deals they have received with Justin, Councilman Brannan throws breadcrumbs at Bay Ridge.
Bay Ridge home owners pay thousands more in property taxes than other NYC home owners. Sending a $150 check (or even less) to these residents is patronizing. A politician expecting a community to cheer over breadcrumbs is ridiculous.
Senator Gounardes didn’t do anything about property taxes this year – he was too busy campaigning. Gounardes isn’t bothered by the inequities in property tax because his friends benefit from low taxes. NYS’s property tax rebate was much higher outside of NYC, but Gounardes wasn’t able to stand up for our district. (See here) If Brannan and Gounardes weren’t friends, Brannan would have called out Gounardes.
Lately, Brannan or his staffer is wasting time making these tacky graphics:
When you deliver breadcrumbs, rather than the Italian bread, you shouldn’t make graphics or write silly opt-ed articles – like this.
Politics has swallowed Brannan – he doesn’t even recognize what’s wrong with that.
Next November, vote for more goal-oriented people to represent our community.
Remember Brannan streched his arm across Queens provided a developer with a property tax exemption for 40 years right before 421a was pulled. (See here) Why didn’t Pierina Sanchez or Selvena N. Brooks-Powers, the Queens NYC Council representatives representing those properties apply for the property tax break?
