Zone A Evacuation!!

This just in from Maria Pagano at the CGNA blog:

Attention Everyone!

Senator Squadron's office just phoned with the official notice from the Mayor's Office:

ZONE A RESIDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO EVACUATE THEIR HOMES BY 5:00pm TOMORROW
(Friday, Aug. 27, 2011).

This is important!

Please circulate this information among your neighbors, family and friends in ZONE A.

Let's take care of each other! We're all in this together.

CORD HISTORY:

With the "Protect Our Homes" petition, CORD was formed in May, 2007. This petition arose as an overwhelmingly negative response to the coming of the over-sized 360 Smith Street Development at the corner of Smith Street and Second Place (Aka Oliver House; aka 131 Second Place). This petition, which had well over three thousand signatures, led to a new zoning text amendment in summer of 2008.

To: Our Elected Officials, Community Leaders, The MTA:
(MAY, 2007)

We the undersigned Carroll Gardens homeowners and residents, are appalled by the "as of right" ruling which allows owners and developers to erect buildings in our neighborhood with no regard to the impact they will present to our quality of life and the value of our homes........
