April 4, 2021Councilman Brannan Gets Called Out By People Outside of Our District
Lower Eastside NY residents are not happy about the The East Side Coastal Resiliency Project.
In 2018, a plan was made to help reduce the flooding in Manhattan. The original plan was scraped and a new plan (much more expensive plan) was introduced.
The people are against the current plan because they believe it will destroy a good portion of the East River Park for many years.
Some residents formed the East River Park Action group to fight for their park. (See their website)
Kirsten Theodos, a Manhattan resident, requested the Value Engineering Study for the project because it was cited by officials. The people were told there was no such study. A month later, the report appeared, but it is barely readable because most parts were blackened out.
NY’ers contacted Councilman Brannan since he is the chair of Waterfront and Resiliency Committee. Brannan didn’t respond to their calls or e-mails.
Today, AMNY has a feature from Brannan saying that he is joining the people in getting the report. (See here) Why did Brannan wait months to help them?
The group called Brannan out tonight:
At the end of January, the activists asked Brannan for a hearing, so they can understand this plan, why changes were made and alternative plans to keep the park because there is a pandemic. They don’t understand why Brannan hasn’t requested a hearing yet!
On April 18th, the group is having a protest in the park about this plan.
