Important issue - take action today

I know I'm not around much now, but this is an important issue - the Atlantic Yards development really needs to be fixed - there will be a vote on it next week by the Public Authorities Control Board. Make sure your voice is heard - sign on and send a letter at brooklynspeaks.net

And you can call Assembly Speaker Silver's office at 518-455-3791 and ask that the vote be delayed until the plan is fixed. (i.e. the plan takes into account the surrounding area and the voice of the people in the neighborhoods nearby).

It is possible to create a plan that has a lower impact, provides truly affordable housing, provides lots of jobs, is green and transit centric. Lets hold them accountable for helping to meet the goals set forth in Bloomies 2030 initiative.
