Kew Gardens park to be returned to the people

From DNA Info:

...on Tuesday, the Parks Department said that the DA’s office had vacated the space and that the park would be restored in the coming months, weather permitting, without offering a specific timeline.

The department also said that it is currently working on a plan that will include removing gravel, aerating the soil and planting new seeds.

The DA’s office will be responsible for handling the renovations and footing the bill, the Parks Department said.

It was unclear who gave permission to ECCO III Enterprises, Inc. — which for the past six years has worked on the Interchange project seeking to widen the Van Wyck Expressway — to build the lot.

Place your bets!

More or less than one million dollars to clean up and scatter one hundred dollars worth of grass seed?

My money is on OVER!!!

"The DA will foot the bill." BS! The taxpayer is on the hook for this.

So, how about FINALLY returning the blighted Kew Gardens Plaza to We, the People by hauing back the evicted statue'Triumph Of Civic Virtue'?

It's been 4.5 unbelievable years since the perpetual loop of empowered idiots at Borough Hall (Helen Marshall and now Melinda Katz), ignored public referendum and ignored democracy in action, while the ever arrogant, derelict, worthless and contemptible Community Board 9 (and Marhall and Katz's henchmen) sat on their clueless duffs and did nothing, against the visible and in person objections of their ever languishing subjects (it's the reason for why there no longer is an audience at ANY and ALL of those vacuous board 9 meetings, because they devalue honesty itself)!

Now, the property of Kew Gardens Plaza has been fenced in for nearly two years, as Katz STILL intends to enforce a $920,000 renovation of the park plaza, ostensibly to beautify the terinally neglected grounds that THEY THEMSELVES blighted (dating back to Claire Schulman, who stopped the statue's fountain based waterworks, and refused to repair, conserve and preserve the precious work of Italian marble to which she was fiscally obligated to maintain——because of her own false belief system that the statue's allegorical art was misogynistic——choosing instead to let the statue turn into a pillar of salt). But, the REAL reason for the sudden, obscenely costly renovation is so that Melinda can IMPOSE a visible tribute to all of the 'crooked-and-corrupt' woman of Queens faulty politics (Katz and Big Shithead Koslowitz included), that no one ever said that they ever wanted in the plaza site (except the return of our hijacked statue), much less was ever asked! Failed democracy in broken and dysfunctional action!

And, now Borough Hall and its Alley Katz henchmen are a feckless scourge of de facto, mob boss ruled sycophants where the whole Queens system of governance itself (and beyond) is a padded cell of pandemonium, chaos and totalitarian, dictator style rule of epic fail.

And, the public be damned (again and STILL)!

It's been 4.5 unbelievable years since the perpetual loop of empowered idiots at Borough Hall (Helen Marshall and now Melinda Katz), ignored public referendum and likewise ignored democracy in action, while the ever arrogant, derelict, worthless and contemptible Community Board 9 (and Marhall and Katz's henchmen), sat obediently on their clueless duffs and did nothing——despite, angry and visible, in person objections by their ever languishing subjects (their willful arrogance is the reason for why there no longer is an audience at ANY and ALL of those vacuous community board 9 meetings, because they devalue honesty itself)!

Now, the property of Kew Gardens Plaza has been fenced in for nearly two years, as Katz STILL intends to enforce a $920,000 renovation of the park plaza, ostensibly to beautify the terinally neglected grounds that ironically THEY THEMSELVES blighted (dating back to Claire Schulman, who stopped the statue's fountain based waterworks, and refused to repair, conserve and preserve the precious work of Italian marble to which she was fiscally obligated to maintain——because of her own false belief system that the statue's allegorical art was misogynistic——choosing instead to let the statue turn into a pillar of salt).

But, the REAL reason for the sudden, obscenely costly renovation is so that Monarch Melinda can FOIST a visible tribute to all of the 'crooked-and-corrupt' woman of Queens County's faulty politics (Katz and Big Shithead 'Krooked Karen Koslowitz' included), that no one ever said that they ever wanted in the plaza site (except to demand the return of our hijacked statue), much less was ever asked!

Anon nos. 4 and 5: Is there an echo in here?

To last Anonymous: Echo or not, the corrupt powers that be are STILL tone deaf, no matter how many times We, the People demand justice, accountability, ethics, integrity and transparency!

And, no matter how many times we shout, battle and retort back at these voracious, predatory, cradle-to-grave thieves (all of whom continue to lie, cheat and steal——easier than they collectively breathe!), they just keep doing what's wrong, derelict and unconscionable, as the equally corrupt system of government from within continues to protect and shield their graft at the forever expense of their ever languishing constituency, all of whom continue to pay a soul-crishing price——and, the public be damned (again and STILL)!
