| Carmelo supporter threatens protest on my quiet residential block. |
Nice choice for Assembly, Senator Stack.
First, Carmelo's HHA issued a press release threatening a "protest" at the SkyClub condominium building where the families of HHA Commissioners Dave Mello (2 small children) and Greg Lincoln (3 small children) live. As do many more families.
What's next? Maxwell Place? The Shipyard? The Tea Building? Does anyone who supports Reform or question Garcia's Vision 20/20 process face intimidation?
Why the protest?
Because Mello and Lincoln are Reformers aligned with Mayor Dawn Zimmer and no other reason.
And Reform is asking for an open process for the redevelopment of the HHA, called Vision 20/20. Reform has tried to hire a new auditor and attorney which has been fought by Garcia every step of the way. Garcia and his allies want to push Phase 1 of Vision 20/20 through without any public input or City Council review. Mayor Zimmer has already cited deficiencies in the plan- buildings have no back-up generators and the developer is not providing them, dangerous ground floor parking, and inadequate provisions for handicapped accessibility. The Mayor has already stated she cannot support the present plan.
So, instead of "going back to the drawing board" and addressing deficiencies in the plan, Garcia appears to be fomenting race and class warfare. He's orchestrated protests at the HHA, the City Council and now... people's private homes.
He has lied to HHA residents. Reform supports a Vision 20/20 redevelopment with commuity involvement and- among other things, back-up generators and active, green open space not asphalt parking lots.
"cindy" is bogus.
ReplyDeleteYeah, he's a big slob from Weehawken who works for Brian Stack and Ruben Ramos.
DeleteDoes Stack approve?
"Cindy Goldberg"? WTF? A floperative trying to pass themselves off as a taxpaying temple attended Hoboken resident? Actually each day we see a new low from the flopertives and the OG,
ReplyDeleteThose postings only help reform.
DeleteI asked in what capacity "Cindy" was "proud to be guiding the residents of the HHA." No answer. Quite a telling choice of words. Sounds like something a missionary would say about natives encountered in the veld. I'm guiding them to Jesus... "She" did stop short of "white man's burden" which I guess is good.
ReplyDeleteThe cruelest irony is the racism of 20/20 itself. Maybe in lieu of "guiding" HHA residents, Team Carmelo could simply stop lying to them. That would be a nice start.
whomever is working with the residents is a hot mess. if you send out a press release for a protest schedulied @ 5pm, the protesters should at the very least, be there; they shouldnt be 2 1/2 hours late.
ReplyDeletei can think of one very specific, carmelo loving, hoboken taxpayer who works with the residents to smear officials and this completely out of touch manuever, is right up his alley.
karma eventually came around and bit mason on the ass, it appears garcia is next in line to get chomped.
ReplyDeleteRuben Ramos who so wanted to be viewed as a moderate bridge candidate now carries the divisive race baiting stigma of his buddy Carmelo Garcia.
Deletestill at a loss why they are not protesting in front of mr garcias home??? I would think it is his fault for the conditions these people live in now....
