Shady Creedmoor project goes for variance


From the Times Ledger:

An Indian group proposing senior housing and a cultural center on the ground of Creedmoor was grilled on its plans by a testy crowd during a public hearing last week in Bellerose.

The Indian Cultural and Community Center wants to build two nine-story towers of senior housing and a community facility after state legislation led to it acquiring the Creedmoor land last year.

Civic leaders and public officials criticized the group, claiming it had been deceptive about its plans and saying the proposal is out of character with the community.

Some community residents walked out of the meeting when a South Asian man claimed opposition to the plan was the result of racism.

The public hearing was needed because the ICCC needs a variance to build the senior housing in a zone that only allows for commercial buildings.

The offices of the state attorney general and the state inspector general are investigating the group’s land purchase, which was authorized under legislation sponsored by then-state Sen. Frank Padavan and then-state Assemblyman Mark Weprin.

LOL...
maybe Senator Padavan's (wanted to be) 39th term will be served in prison!

why arent the authorities looking into what went on for it to get this far? why is no one looking into what our former Senator was up to? when are we going to wake up? when is our judicial branch of government going to wake up and go after those in office? a lot of why and a lot of when.

Interesting to see how much money changed hands and whose hands were out.

RE: "when is the Judicial branch going to go after those in office "?

Have you been stuck on an island in Norway ?

the U.S. Federal Attorney's have been investigating corrupt politicians in N.Y.C.and NYS. since D.Manes (suicide), Leffler, Mc Glauglin, A.Hevesi, A. Seminerio, a gang of Brklyn dems. All were convicted DEMOCRATS ,went to prison, while some are on the way.

if a crime was committed in the Creedmore land
deal,those indicted and convicted will be punished.
But please give the legal system a chance to work, before you "LYNCH" your hated political opposition.
those involved have a criminally clean past in government. let us hear the truth .

Weprin? This wiggie shows up everywhere?

Will this Senior Center and Cultural Center be for all races or just Southeast Asians ?? Hmm sounds a bit Racist if its not for All Cultures .

John Patel said...

Senior citizen housing is always a GGreat idea. But everyone knows that this project is not about senior citizen housing. The community isn't stupid and this group hasn't been honest from day one. The ICCC should stop with the lies and rethink this project.
Our community is not against the ICCC or it's members. Were against the scope of the project as proposed.

Along with Dirty Dan Halloran, Wiggly Weprin also had his hands in the White House re-zoning - undoing everything the City Planning Commission achieved in a highly controversial development plan. These guys should both be investigated!!

Haven't seen him at the last couple of meetings. Is he involved with all this.

Yup, that matches the info I received. Don't forget that the Vallones also have their hands up Halloran's ass.

i believe avella was the city councilman, when the re-zoning to R-2A was passed for Whitestone, 154st/9-11th avenue .do you have the exact date ?
Bayside from F.L.Blvd eastbound, to the Cross i. Pkwy was done during avella's term,also.

Halloran was elected in 2010,and confirmed shortly after in 2011. i do not believe any re-zoning has been done since he was elected ?

did the franco group get a variance for the restaurant lot ?

We're in October folks.

Let's see if the Zucarellos ("Queens Garden Center") will be throwing another big Bowne Park Halloween bash for 'ol Danny boy.

"Oh Danny boy...

It won't be long until you're vessel's sunk.

Into the mire of political corruption...so deserving for a developer pal's pet skunk".

//////////////////////////////////

The zoning had nothing to do with the Franco Catering Hall it was Hallorans approval that got him the variance, and yes vallone did the intros. Remember, francos attorney? He and Pauly Boy grew up in the same hood, and went to the same law school. What a twisted web beig weaved.

Paul has his fingers so far up Dans ass, they come out his nose!.

One should assume you are a uninformed, resident of the Whitestone area. One can also assume you are a two faced friend of Chrissy and Devom. But putting that aside, I am more interested in the facts. I can not find anything written to back up your comments and that is what the people want. I could be wrong! Please respond.

First check the CPC website and read their report, then check the City Council website and read their reports. See for yourself how Halloran fucked Whitestone. It's all in black and white.

I love Queens Crap but I cannot understand why our local elected and civic leaders don't respond to all these allegations. Most commenters refer to the key players by their first names. To me, this means you know them personally or have an obsession with them.

I hope your response is based on insider information because the words "phony group" has not been used by other media outlets beyond what you have posted on this site, in relation to these leaders. Your interest in these man and their associates seems to be fueled by there non-interest in you. Since you can not provide factual information I must conclude you are part of a sub-local group or some group want to be. Anything above you, you believe to be "phony". Again, I could be wrong.

i am trying to understand what some of you are texting,but your lack of complete sentences are meaningless.
who is chrissy and danny boy ? ,is it (buccerella or zuccarella ? complete their names ? son in law of the brother in law. give us a break?

if you have facts of criminality,deliver them to the N.Y.C Dept. of investigations,the F.B.I. etc.

garbled accusations on this website will not accomplish anything.one tends to discredit irrational words ,with no subject or predicate. you are wasting our time reading your nonsense, even if there might be some truth in it.

when giving sources for your garbling, detail the report name, date,address,city ,state, or federal dept.
BE SPECIFIC... now write it on paper ,edit and text.

The sad truth is we all know the person witting the majority of these "garbled accusations" in relation to our elected and civic leaders. We all know the first and last names of all the key players. Let's stop playing dumb. This man believes you all to be fools, while you socialize with him at meeting and have friendly phone and text conversations with him on a daily basis, you bring him into your world, giving him credibility. Don't believe me? How many newspaper and TV interviews have been about him lately? Your silence is your problem. Call him out face to face, bring anonymous front and center because if you don't, the public and this commenter may have to agree with him. One side will be the only side. Appeasement never works. But yet again, I could be wrong.

Nothing on the CPC or CC websites backs up your claims! I have been looking for any information were one could conclude the city councilman fucked Whitestone. Maybe if I capitalize it you may understand. SHOW US THE PROOF. All I read is your slanderous comments on this site, what a sad waste of time you are.

and the gaunlet has been thrown down let the battles begin i dont know who you think i am and i am sorry if you think i am someone else i have never been featured in any other medium other that right here on Queens Crap Rules!

i am someone who has named the names and put the puzzle together i have the resources needed to do the investigations and my team is good and gathering information and putting it together for me.

i do not like to be in the limelight so i would not be in any newspaper or tv spots i am a lifelong resident of the area and have been around long enough to know who is who to who

i am interested in knowing who you are talking about but then again this may not be the venue to name this person you obviously dislike and distrust

i can tell you from your astute description of me i am not him or is it he is not me?

On a daily basis, this site post comments from hundreds and hundreds of people and has thousands of daily readers, I find it interesting that you are the only anonymous person claiming not to be the anonymous person you claim not to be. But I digress.

Many of us have asked you for information to back up your many posted allegations of our local political and civic leaders, you cannot do that. There is no battle here, just the very over active imagination of a person that does not understand how it all works. You leave us with no choice but to conclude, you are wrong. And stop calling!
