The Bay Ridge BID Needs New Leadership

Tonight there was a Community Board 10 Environmental Committee meeting. The Bay Ridge BID’s representative spoke as if the new containers on 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge were working.

Fifth Avenue is a mess because people are placing garbage on the corners. The people dumping household garbage don’t know there are bins on the street.

The bins don’t look like they are working well either. What a wreck:

This is going to hurt the great bars and businesses on 5th Avenue – they need new leadership to get control of this problem!



Thank you to the Ridgite and her dogs who took the photos because they love Bay Ridge!

April 23, 2026Why Isn’t Kayla Santosuosso Replying to Residents in Bay Ridge?

At the Community Board 10 Environmental Meeting this evening, an animal advocate named Mary Elizabeth is advocating for cats in Bay Ridge.
Mary Elizabeth mentioned that she contacted Council Representative, Kayla Santosuosso, but Santosuosso has not responded to her.
That’s strange because a developer for Staples shared that he met with Santosuosso. Info: https://shorturl.at/y9j2P
Mary Elizabeth wanted assistance in translating flyers to educate the community about the issues.
Mary Elizabeth also said she contacted Justin Brannan’s office and he did not return calls.
How are people not getting assistance from our NYC Council Representative? Why aren’t Santosuosso’s staffers answering residents?

April 22, 2026Andrew Gounardes Repeated What He Heard on Social Media About Chi Osse – Yet. There Was No Deed Theft

Andrew Gounardes defends his friend Chi Osse. Yet, what Gounardes wrote was not accurate and he didn’t correct it the following day.
The Attorney General, Letiticia James said there was no deed theft. She claimed it was a family dispute.

On Errol Lewis’ show, Chi Osse said he did not identify himself to the police. Why would an elected official not speak to the police?

Gounardes is an attorney and should have checked before repeating that this was deed theft.

April 22, 2026Neugard Pharmacy in Bay Ridge is Closing 4/24

Neugard Pharmacy at 7311 – 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge is Closing on Friday, April 24th.
This is very sad to see as many Ridgites loved this pharmacy up until they renovated the place. After they renovated, there were a lot of complaints that the pharmacy wasn’t open and the phone wasn’t working. People were frustrated because they couldn’t pick up their prescriptions.

April 22, 202668th Pct. Police Nab Catalytic Converter Thieves

Not an actual picture of the thieves or police.
A Bay Ridge resident saw a catalytic converter being taken from a car parked on Marine Avenue between 92nd and 93rd Street.
He called the cops and the peolice caught the thieves about an hour later.
Thank you to our neighbor, who took the time to contact the police. Hooray for the NYPD officers who went after the thieves! The 68th Precinct police should have shared that they caught the thieves. It’s nice to get good news once in awhile.

April 21, 2026Assemblyman Tannousis Shared The Yelling That Is Going On In Albany – No Call for Order!

Because they show up and cause havoc in the legislature. They are loud and try to intimidate elected officials. Today, activists pushing the New York for All Act tried to prevent us from… pic.twitter.com/CxoKIDCRTW
No one talks about why things aren’t getting done in Albany. Today, Assemblyman Michael Tannousis shared how people are behaving before a vote in the NYS Assembly. (Click above to play the video)
I’m surprised Carl Heastie (head of the NYS Assembly) is allowing that and isn’t calling for order.
The bill they are voting on is a bill that Andrew Gounardes has sponsored for years, but didn’t do the work to pass year after year BECAUSE HE PUSHES BILLS FOR LOBBYISTS (like the red light ticket cameras)
