CB6 passes Cord Meyer rezoning

From the Times Ledger:

The City Council has approved the Cord Meyer rezoning plan for Forest Hills, a move some say will help to curb overdevelopment. But a lawyer representing Bukharian homeowners said the blueprint marks an assault on new immigrants.

Many of the individuals who live in the larger, newer homes in Cord Meyer are Bukharian Jews, a growing population in Forest Hills.

The Council approved the plan July 7 to rezone the 32-block Cord Meyer area.

“It’s a good compromise,” Councilwoman Melinda Katz (D-Forest Hills) said. “The rezoning probably didn’t go far enough for some people and too far for others. You know you’ve probably done the right thing when both sides aren’t happy.”

Compromise? What compromise? Is this the West Bank Melinda? No, it's the USA and the law is the law--- no compromising whatsoever!!!!
By the way, has anyone ever seen any elderly people going in or out of these monstrosities? No! Only multiple young couples who are beating the real estate tax!!! Get the picture everyone? Case closed.

4 years too late Melinda. Great job of doing nothing.

Equivocation is the language of gutless politicians, which is most of them.

The CB closed the barn doors after the horse already got out. Thanks for nothing.

Katz is a lying windbag, just like any other laywer. Did someone say self interest?

Wow, now this is something the preservation community should be interested in.

Maybe at the next HDC conference .... wait a minute ... no? ... oh I see .... this never happens in Brooklyn Heights.

Sorry.

Melinda is alive out there? Oh, I forgot - this involved zoning / developmemt in a rich and Jewish area of Forest Hills & Gardens

Good luck w/ Melinda in any other area she represents - she hasn't ever been there yet.

Melinda, a real politician. This was created and passed by a bunch of jealous loosers.

Sure easy to guess where the last posting came from. How obvious can you get?

"jealous loosers"

It is interesting to note that trolls can't spell. Perhaps a product of a Bloomtard education?

How many medical insurance scams does one have to pull off to build one those ugly houses?

There are dozens of Antikas (Russian "pharmacies") dotting Katz's district. Talk about insurance scam mills? The NYS AG needs to investigate the fraud that is being committed here. Why has Katz been blind to this during her 8 year stint in FH?.
And all of those "ambulettes" picking up so called "patients" are all in on it too! Andrew Cuomo-- where are you???!!
