b) Did they change some tennis courts into pickleball courts so more people could play and wouldn’t need to wait for a court (this was an easy one)?
c) Why was Barbara thrown off Community Board 10 without reason and new members added? UPDATE 9/16: Barbara was restored.
d) The new high school on Ovington Avenue that CB 10 voted against, but is opening next to several elementary schools and CB 10 didn’t take action.
