New York Shitty Day Ender: A Couple Community Meetings of Interest

The ever-dedicated lady of our Community board’s Transportation Committee, Karen Nieves, has brought a couple of items to my attention. Items in which I suspect a number of my friends and neighbors will be interested. Without further ado, here they are— bike share enthusiasts and those who still have issues with the Nassau Avenue Reconstruction Project should pay special attention!

REMINDER: Community Board 1 Joint Committee Meeting

On May 3, 2012 I wrote:

While I am vaguely on the subject, I saw a great deal activity (READ: a small army of Parks employees cleaning, “weed whacking”, etc.) this morning at Cooper Park.

Follows is a tip I received from an anonymous tipster the very next day! He/she writes:

i overheard… that a compromise has been reached.  8 bbq pits – NOT 10 – will be installed this Sunday.

While passing by Cooper Park this afternoon I noticed something different. Namely that there are eight newly installed barbecue pits…

and they appear to be a big hit! I suppose this still leaves the Union Avenue Demapping subject to debate…

As proudly announced during last month’s OSA “minute”*, the matter of Cooper Park’s barbecue pits is one of two enticing items on next week’s agenda!

P.S.: While I am vaguely on the subject, I saw a great deal activity (READ: a small army of Parks employees cleaning, “weed whacking”, etc.) this morning at Cooper Park.

Anyone have the 411 on what’s up?

*Which was actually 3 minutes and 36 seconds— but who’s keeping track?
