Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap
"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt

Willy Nilly, they plan a million trees. Then storms uproot the trees. And we have to fix the sidewalk ourselves. And we have to rake the leaves.
"free". I don't mind the trees - a couple of my neighbors are getting new saplings. As long as it's not a weird pretext for a property tax hike, it's a good thing.
Revenge for screwing up the Homeless Shelter plans and tossing out Crowley. DeBlasio has all these Maspeth homeowners under microscopes and hammer's.
Its going to get much worse after Easter
City puts tree in. Tree lifts up sidewalk homeowner pays for it. The leaves fall and you don’t clean you get a ticket and who pays for it you do.
2nd anon:
right on.
My neighbor asked the city to build a proper sidewalk because the sidewalk isnt even a sidewalk, its just grass that extends out and the city told her since "thats her property, they won't pay for it, she is responsible for it " meanwhile, if you have a tree on your property that is considered a "city tree", you are not allowed to cut it down yourself if it causes problems. But if THEIR TREE clogs up YOUR sewer line and backs up your plumbing, they tell you that they are NOT responsible for it. This city is so backwards, it just sucks.
This is crazy, the sidewalk is not your property but you have to pay for a damaged sidewalk that the city planted.I like trees but any damage they cause should be the city's responsibility.
People are complaining that there's too much green in NYC? That's a first.
The trees are a good thing, it's the City's ticketing policy and repair policy that's bad.
You can see from the leaves in the news segment that the offending tree is a Silver Maple. The million trees program did not plant maple trees for that very reason - maples have shallow roots that love to invade water pipes and tear up sidewalks.
Patch your sidewalks, loose siding, park cars properly.
Insider (she's always right) says crazy Mayor on warpath. Ticket blitz for Maspeth, MV Blissville to Sunnyside border extra enforcement starts Monday May 27 and will continue till Apr 6 when Passover is over.
I take it Jewish neighborhoods are exempt during this time?
