A Ribbon Cutting Isn’t Needed for GrowNYC….It is Needed for Small Businesses in Bay Ridge
Years ago, the Farmer’s Market at the Walgreens parking lot was a great addition to our area. But now many stores are selling organic vegetables. Why are we bringing in sellers from out of the area to compete with our community’s businesses still?
Even a graphic was created for this:
This market has been in the area for many years, so a ribbon cutting wasn’t necessary.
Councilwoman Kayla Santosuosso had nothing to do with its setup. These markets are all over the five boroughs now. And the prices here are not cheap!
Does Kayla Santosuosso think the halal stores in Bay Ridge are not good? We go to Balady all the time and the meat is excellent. We don’t need an outside seller.
Photo: Kayla Santosuosso
Sadly, Kayla Santosuosso has not shown up for one business ribbon-cutting ceremony in our community. The Mom and Pop shops need the publicity.
Santosuosso, a new Mom, failed to mention that a child was seriously hurt on 81st Street this week.
Santosuosso wants to do “politics as usual” in Bay Ridge. She watched Justin Brannan leave the community out of so many things, so she figures she can do the same. Santosusso did a terrible job speaking up for Bay Ridge and didn’t question Tim Ziss’ new building on 92nd Street (with a supermarket), which was approved this week. This property is diagonally across the street from PS 104. What mother would approve a supermarket across the street from a school??? Can you imagine the chaos at dismissal? Ridiculous! Info:
