A not-for-profit proposed to convert two buildings in Ozone Park into homeless services facilities. In July 2016, Common Ground Management Corporation, a not-for-profit organization, applied to the City of New York for approval of a homeless shelter and services project. The non-for-profit organization intended to convert two multistory adjacent buildings in Ozone Park into temporary housing for homeless adults that would provide medical and psychiatric services, meals, laundry, and showers for stays of up to nine months.
Neighbors in the area sued the City of New York to stop the development of the Ozone Park project. The neighbors claimed that the City had unlawfully segmented the environmental review. The neighbors reasoned that the Ozone Park project was part of the City’s 2017 City-wide plan to address homelessness and asserted that the City was required to conduct an environmental review of each project that was part of the 2017 plan.
Queens County Supreme Court Justice Howard G. Lane ruled against the neighbors, finding that the City had not segmented its environmental review. The court found that the City’s 2017 report was a “general agency policy” and the City had not yet identified specific locations to create the homeless shelters. Further, the facilities to be built as part of the City-wide plan would be sponsored by various organizations, built at different times and by different contractors, and would not be dependent on one another.

Anybody that voted for this needs a cognitive test.
99% of not-profits are a blight on the nation. The people who work for them are psychotic monsters for the most part.
Got it sheep, vote harder next time
Wouldn't closing the border lower the need for homeless shelters ? Asking for a friend.
Great job community board !

At least they’ll be no more loud mouth Trumpanzees living there now. They will all move when the shelter opens.
There goes the neighborhood. No one wants psycho crack head thieves living down the block from them. They’re the professional homeless.Noise, graffiti, more garbage on the street, drug dealing and prostitution will follow. How will they pay for their drugs otherwise? Drug dealing dies not attract kind, decent and civic minded individuals. There will be fights, stabbings, gun play. Your children will have to cross over to the other side of the street to avoid the unstable males who will be exposing themselves, urinating and defecating openly. Someone should start poking into the judges relationship with this non profit.
I feel for anyone who owns a house nearby, the value will plummet.
Instead of these shelters, expand Creedmore State Hospital. They can not take care of themselves, are a danger to themselves and others.
Don't destroy the Ozone layer!
Non-profit = Tax avoidance.
Outsourcing = Tax evasion.
NGO = Bypass voters
Learn the meaning of the "new" words boys and girls.
By 2030 you'll own nothing and you'll be happy!
Looks like a former Catholic School building.
NPC_ Translator, non profit employees can't function in real jobs, which is why they work in dysfunctional government funded and grant based jobs. The directors make the real money and they definitely can not handle anyone giving them direction nor do they know how to cooperate or manage a workplace. Non profits have terrible bookkeeping and record keeping practices. They get endless tech grants from various city, state and federal agencies, they keep changing their financial software but it all winds up being a disorganized tangle. The records mess is smoke and mirrors. There's generally a revolving door of any support staff. When the admins realize they are not making enough to live on and are being treated like garbage, they move on to real jobs.
A lot of the time non profits are money laundering fronts.
It's mind blowing how many people can't seem to think for themselves or are perfectly fine with over-reaching government control.
Forgive me if I don’t think the morons at the helm in New York City can be trusted to spend money appropriately to deal with this issue.
And I thought Caitlyn Jenner EMBEZZLING NUNS was bad.
How long before the "Criminal-Loving City" will approve a "Drug-Injecting Site" down the block from this unwanted Non-Profit Homeless Shelter in a residential area?
Keeping the Drug Addicts, Sex Predators, Career Criminals and the Mentally Ill happy is the city's mission now.
Everyone else be Damned!!!
More than 75% of the Sheeple in this city are gullible.
The rest of us are being run over by their Masters.
More words:
Woke = Brought to you by BlackRock and CCP Stooge Larry Fink. 10 Trillion of your dollars used against you, your family and society to create chaos.
NPC_ Translator, non profit employees can't function in real jobs,
Seems Bill and Melinda Gates can function just fine.
If you meant the so called elected officials, they cannot function in any job, any sector.
They are going to take us down to the third world faster than you can blink.
