April 20, 2021CB10 Calls Out the Dealerships in Bay Ridge
At last night’s Community Board 10 Meeting, the head of Community Board 10, Lori Willis, called out the dealerships. She also mentioned the 68th Precinct as this accident was avoidable. (Video from last night will be here)
Willis echoed the words of Councilman Brannan in referring to the dealerships as bad actors. Willis stopped short of mentioning Councilman Brannan.
Justin Brannan has allowed this condition to exist in Bay Ridge for over three years. When Brannan saw cars weren’t being ticketed by the agents because they didn’t have plates, Brannan should have introduced a bill to target that issue. Cars without plates are ticketed all over Bay Ridge!
Instead, Councilman Brannan took five one thousand dollar checks from one dealership last February. (See here)
Brannan is another bad player in this mess.
He should be on 4th Avenue calling and waiting for the 68th precinct to show up EVERY DAY until this matter is cleared up.

This is the meeting about the school – Block 6065 – Lots 28 and 39. Will someone have CB10 reveal who owns Lot 28 tonight? It’s important as this is about someone playing politics.

They opened an Outreach Center at 6022 – 4th Avenue to provide a food and a clothing pantry to anyone who needs something. It is open Monday through Saturday 11:00 am – 2:00 pm.
Such kindness!! It had to take a lot of hours of preparation and fundraising.
