Responding to the ESDC on Atlantic Yards Adapted from Council of Brooklyn Neighborhoods (CBN) - www.councilofbrooklynneighborhoods.org The pro-forma public hearings have come and gone, and we are now in a public comment period. It is vital that everyone in the community let the ESDC and the 3 Men in a Room (Governor Paterson, Assemblyman Sheldon Silver, and...some guy in the State Senate...) know that this is totally unacceptable! Why Should I Comment? Government only works when the Public is paying attention. Atlantic Yards has been designed to keep the Public out of the process. As a result, we’re looking at billions in subsidies and grants with no real public benefits on the horizon, all just to build an arena and blight the neighborhoods. Our money. Our neighborhoods. How Do I Comment? The Dean Street Block Association can submit your comments on your behalf to insure they reach the ESDC and relevant elected  officials. If you prefer that we submit for you, send your comments to Serena Derryberry (mulhes01@nyu.edu) and CBN at cbrooklynneighborhoods@hotmail.com by 5:30 PM, Wednesday, August 26, 2009
