From the Juniper Civic:
This is a new comm board member from Ridgewood lamenting that JPCA had the executive committee change the chair of the transportation committee because "DOT told him that's what happened". We had no idea we had this much power! We didn't even realize the chair was changed, nor do we care.
I actually would like to know who this masked man is and what would compel him to make such an accusation. Which is ironic considering how Transportation Alternatives presence has been at every announcement of street infrastructure and transportation related policy announcements this year. And whoever this person the committee removed is such a concern for the clearly regulatory captured DOT then that's ok by me.
And if this guy is representing Ridgewood that town has got a lot less cooler.
This just in:
It turns out that this masked man relaying accusations by the Department of Transportation about Juniper Civic is Derek Evers,the campaign manager for Juan Ardila for his failed city council campaign last year. As reported on this blog, Evers was picked by Borough President Donovan Richards to represent the district on CB5 and also appeared in Ardila's social media campaign ad larping as a regular citizen. It's a safe bet that honesty is not one of his skill sets.
Since Ardila had tremendous backing by non-profit "advocacy" organizations for street safety and equity Transportation Alternatives and Open Plans's StreetsPac during his stunning win for the State Assembly, despite his use of a car and racking up a load of traffic and parking violations during his campaign run; what Derek has clearly done here, to use his term, was reveal their influence on the D.O.T.'s street infrastructure policy decisions. Going after Juniper was obvious considering numerous social media posts showing how they want to place citibike racks on the streets to usurp parking spaces for people's cars instead of ample sidewalks.
About the person who got sacked by CB5 that the DOT and Evers were trying to defend, Toby Shepard Bloch. That's him on the right sitting next to Lincoln Restler during a town hall for a hotel about to converted into a homeless shelter in Maspeth. Toby apparently was supposed to be their rubber stamp for the Citibike expansion and colonizing of curbside parking and this fits in well with Linky's own attempts to force shelters on communities without their input. And as we all her know about Linky, he's the biggest Transportation Alternatives agency captured official in Brooklyn and all of New York.
It's beyond hilarious how the DOT has the audacity to accuse CB5 and actually anyone of political shenanigans after the way their municipality has been agency captured by Transportation Alternatives as that non-profit org has been present at every rally involving street infrastructure and policy announcements by politicians the past year and then they get mad because some appointee who was basically a proxy for them gets canned? Maybe if they didn't try to force Citibike on a town and wouldn't compromise on how public spaces can be used for them, they wouldn't be whining right now. They need to remember who the fuck they work for, the taxpayers, not private corporations with some bike share scheme.

Juniper civic should stick to picking up garbage in juniper park.
I used to like that park, but there’s a bad smell of TrumpTurds around there now.
Somehow… Trump will be blamed.
TA Commies at it again....
TA COMMIE You Got Schooled Son! . LOL...
Community - like in Communism.
TA Commie's clown is at the meeting with a mask to cover his ugly face.
TA - Soros funded NGO, part of the Great Reset, banker devised scam to have Life as a Service.
Screw them all.
Oh, wait, you disagree with the elites, you must be a dangerous insurrectionist subversive, and the Fudural Bunglers of Investigations will raid your house as soon as they finish off the granny who spoke up at the local school board meeting. Such sacrilege! How dare you disresepct the high priests of blabofuddey! A necessary expiation after so many years of indifference or Trumpian impiety! Consider https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Sacrilege_Act
It was Derek Evers former pimp for Juan Ariola, the candidate who didn't know which district he was campaigning in...
Who’s the old guy who has all the answers, and answers nothing at the same time? Is he the benevolent dictator of queens transportation? Time for him to retire.
And what’s wrong with a masked man asking questions? Is that not allowed under the dictatorship? What has JQ got against people asking questions? I guess that sort of stuff isn’t allowed in Putins Russia?
Hi Anon 8
Don't know if you didn't read the update, but this is exactly why what's wrong with particularly that guy asking those questions. And you didn't notice the "old guy" actually asked him what proof he had (or in this case what proof the DOT had)? And if you think Putin is the only autocrat who censors you obviously haven't been living in this city and country in the last few years.
Were I on the executive committee, I'd be REALLY interested in knowing who, at DOT made those accusations... And WTF was this guy doing conspiring with DOT for.
The old guy didn’t really deny the interference either. Lots more to this story than what we see here, in sure.
Is Restler making gang signs in that picture???
As far as TA is concerned they seem to be using George Orwell's 1984 & Animal Farm as a manual to destroy our once great city .
Soy boys are at it again...
