Council explains why Willets Point condemnation is wrong, part 1


Testimony excerpt: Current Council Member Brad Lander (then Director of the Pratt Center for Community Development) at the New York City Council; October 17, 2008; City Hall, New York City.

Prediction: Brad Lander will not do a thing about the abuse of condemnation about to happen at Willets Point. Prove me wrong, Brad.

"Granny" Shulman sez:

"It all depends on my "Depends...period (and I haven't had one of those for at least 30 years)"!

And Manes' crooked pal Michael Nussbaum (of Q.Trib's whore ad fame) seems to be popping up all over the place these days.

"The Donald" might be pushing up daisies but his old development plans are sprouting like weeds all over Queens.

H-m-m-m....is Manes really "gone" or in witness protection.

Might Chuck Apelian be receiving any payment for his services in screwing the W.P. business owners out of their livelihood?

And wattsa matter Mr. Kelty...retiring on an FDNY pension ain't enough?

That whole CB#7 nest needs cleaning out.

Their corruption stinks worse than the Flushing River at low tide!

From what we've heard the feds are closing in on "the crew"!

Attend an average CB#7 meeting.

A third of "the crew" ,as you put it, looks like a geriatrics ward.

No wonder Chuck & Gene can easily twirl them around their fingers.

You forgot to mention CB#7's poor, scowling, frazzled, district manager...always seen busily scribbling notes while dealing with all of the various impossible egos and situations that constantly erupt at most board meetings...for a mere $85,000 a year.

Marilyn Bitterman deserves a raise!

Disagree, Brad Lander is alright. He stands by constituents unlike many other City Council members.
