The following letter form a Cord Co-Founder was submitted to Councilman DeBasio this week:
"Where are you Councilman DeBlasio?", we ask, as residents of Carroll Gardens who fought long and hard along with you to pass the zoning text amendment . This amendment which limits building height to 55 ft. will have no value, non, nada, if we allow even one new development to be absolved from its mandate. The claims of loss at the 360 site which is barely started, are incidental, and we need our Councilman to stand by our side at the BSA hearing to show his support .
"Our efforts through the past year will be futile if we let this go. You have been a strong force in our arduous endeavor to save our neighborhood and we appreciate all that you have done. It is vital that all our Politians who were proponents of the amendment show their courage and determination by supporting their constituents at the BSA hearing.
Where are you Councilman DeBlasio?" Can we count on you to be there?"

This is the response Mrs. DeCarlo received BACK from the Councilman's Office. (It is the letter his office already sent to the BSA; The Councilman still has no official plans to stand together with the community at the BSA hearing in order to support us.) Download at:
