People Riding Citibikes From Manhattan to Bay Ridge Can’t Find Parking Spaces in the Docks!
Brooklyn cyclists are complaining that it is impossible to park Citibikes in Bay Ridge because the racks are almost always full.
They open the Citibike app and find only a few empty spots on the Citibike charging dock. Meaning: Very few people in Bay Ridge are riding to work on Citibikes.
Cyclists have complained to Citibike Rack Support many times (1-855-BIKE-311), but the situation has not improved.
When this happens, Citibike is supposed to manually redistribute the bikes or give bike angels points to cyclists who move bikes to other racks. But Citibike isn’t doing either of those things!
Some Ridgites are trying to negotiate a dock spot with other Citibike users in the area:
What a mess! NYC should hold Lyft responsible, but they won’t because the lobbyists win in Bay Ridge. (Andrew Gounardes made a video for Citibike, even though he uses his car to get around and go to work).

Child Seriously Hurt Afterschool Yesterday – 81st Street Between 14th and 15th Avenue
Yesterday after school, there was a terrible accident on 81^st Street between 14^th and 15^th Avenues. A child was hit by a car. He was bleeding from his head.
An ambulance brought the boy to the hospital. The boy was conscious, so hopefully he will be alright. *Prayers* for his recovery.
Our community does not prioritize children any longer. I grew up around adults who understood that they had to keep children safe. Our government has other priorities over children.
People who live on 81st Street have requested a speed bump, but were denied by NYC. Lobbyists aren’t pushing for speed bumps, so its not a priority.
It’s over 24 hours since this child was hurt and Senator Andrew Gounardes has not even mentioned this accident. Gounardes is too busy posting videos of himself on social media. He says he is in contact with the police, but he isn’t. He’s just not connected to this community.
Lobbyists and lobbyist’s wants are the priority in this community. We need to change that!

If You Love Bay Ridge, Come Speak Out Against the Overdevelopment at the Staples Lot – 5/7/26
Bay Ridge, I didn’t receive this Public Meeting Notice. Did you?

This notice says:
Dear Resident/Business Owner/Property Owner:
Community Board 10’s Zoning and Land Use Committee began its advisory review of a zoning map amendment at 9305 5th Avenue.

Purchase Canned Cat Food for Seniors in Our Community From Kiso’s Amazon List
With the cost of everything going up, I’m glad Kiso’s Pet Pantry is providing food for senior’s pets in Bay Ridge.
Kiso’s shared that they are low on canned cat food for this weekend and they posted their Amazon list if anyone is interested in donating food: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1ETEQZNTUG7UQ

Inna Vernikov Asked Why There is No Way to Contact The NYC Antisemitism Task Force
Mayor Mandami appointed Phylisa Wisdom as the Executive Director of The Taskforce to Combat Antisemitism on February 2nd.
On April 22nd, Phylisa Wisdom would not provide Councilwoman Inna Vernikov a way for her to be contacted. Is this a real taskforce? Listen to the video:
Zohran Mamdani’s Task Force to Combat Antisemitism:

No Phone Number
No Email Address
No Website
No Social Media Presence
Led by a Self-Hating Jew

It’s an absolute farce built to exist on paper while doing nothing to protect Jews in NYC. pic.twitter.com/FhTGzfHYHt
— The Persian Jewess (@persianjewess) April 28, 2026

Why didn’t Phylisa Wisdom provide her email address or phone number to the Councilwoman? She obviously doesn’t care and isn’t taking action against antisemitism.

Susan Zhuang Gave Five Million to Brooklyn Tech
It’s interesting to see how some schools get money and some don’t. Education nis obviously important to Council representative Zhuang.
How come Kayla Santosuosso isn’t carrying a five million dollar check into Telecommunications High School? How come Alexa Aviles isn’t bringing five million to New Utrecht High School?
