Whose Helping the Bay Ridge Stores That Have Been Robbed Repeatedly?

Some small stores in Bay Ridge are being robbed multiple times a week. Not one politician is talking about it because they just want to take pictures and pretend life is like it was pre-Pandemic.

Within the first two days of the year this store on Bay Ridge Avenue was robbed four times:

Stores aren’t going to want to stay open in Bay Ridge if they are being robbed regularly.

This store on 3rd Avenue had three robberies in a week:

As crime is increasing in our area, the politicians should be giving extra help to store owners, who had two robberies or more in a month.

Two robberies at this 86th Street store:

Senator Gounardes should be providing assistance, but he isn’t doing anything.

Since the District Attorney is not prosecuting these small crimes they keep happening. We need a politician who cares about the businesses in the area.

Why Trader Joe’s Didn’t Come to Bay Ridge…..

Any time someone asked on social media about Trader Joe’s coming to Bay Ridge, Councilman Brannan would chime in and write: “Stay Tuned.”

People believed him:

This article says that Trader Joes had plans for Bay Ridge. See who changed those plans here. You will be surprised.

Nicole Malliotakis Called Out Chuck Schumer For On a Bill He’s Try to Push Through Congress

Congesswoman Nicole Malliotakis had to go outside of the Capitol and make recording to call out Chuck Schumer for trying to push a bill to try and get universal mail-in ballots, same day registration for voting and more money to spend!

It’s time to vote Chuck Schumer out. He lives in Brooklyn, but acts like he doesn’t. I have never seen him advocate for Brooklyn.

The School Being Built on 86th Street – How The Deal Went Down in Brooklyn

The real truth about the school being built on Nathan’s lot came out today. (See here)

Journalist, Katie Horan from the City should receive an award for this story. (Click here to see Horan’s story)

Councilman Justin Brannan should resign.

The sad part is there are a lot of people who knew and didn’t speak out against this.

Now that the truth is out, some members of CB 10 should step down as well. There is video of the second school meeting and it was obvious who was “pushing” the school and who didn’t know. Please step down, you have done enough damage – don’t make us call you out.

From the article:

Why is our community stuck with this terrible deal? An attorney in the area can fight this for us!

Say Goodbye to 62 More Parking Spots in Bay Ridge

Tonight Community Board 10 held a Transportation Meeting with the DOT.

Sixty-two parking spots in Bay Ridge will be taken by Neighborhood Loading Zones. Signs will be installed on these 31 loading zones in February.

It’s going to feel like people are shooting movies throughout the community from Monday to Friday.

Look at how they put the sign low so people don’t see it and they will get more tickets:


There are only 146 loading zones in the five boroughs of NYC.

Bay Ridge could use 5-7 of these places on the Avenue to alleviate traffic. Bay Ridge will be receiving 31 loading zones that are 40 feet long.

How were these locations chosen?

There was no research behind them. Doris from CB 10 leaned on the DOT to find out about what research was done. She asked how many tickets had been given out in these areas. The DOT representatives didn’t know. Doris asked how many people chose a location for a loading zone – it could have just been one.

Basically a few people (DOT said 85) chose locations for these loading zones. Most likely cyclists chose the locations because they were narrow streets. We also heard a few cyclists speak about this years ago.

Lobbyists were behind this bill in NYC Council. Council Justin Brannnan was lobbied over this and has not once spoken or written about it. (Info here) When the man who represents the area is representing lobbyists people that live here need to know that. If you backed him, speak up.

Today, a story about Nathan’s school came out and how lobbying played a role in it. (Read this if you live in Bay Ridge)

CB 10 seemed to like the term “community parking.” This is commercial parking for deliveries. You can stop in the spot, but you can’t leave your car and go get your Mother or luggage – you will be ticketed. Commercial trucks will not be ticketed for parking there.

What Did CB 10 Know?

a) CB 10 knew there was deadline to submit loading zones places (November to December) The only thing the DOT guys want to negotiate on is the time on the sign:



b) CB 10 didn’t do a good job sharing this on any of their social media.

d) I read everything – this wasn’t shared by Senator Andrew Gounardes or Councilman Justin Brannan anywhere.

e) No one on CB 10 mentioned the NYC Council vote on this or that Brannan was lobbied over this. (See here) The head of the Committee should have researched where this bill came from.

The DOT representatives said that other neighborhoods said NO, so they liked coming to CB 10 because they can talk about it. I bet those of you who are reading this wish CB 10 said NO?
