It is long past time when the community needs to start considering a class action suit against the BPCA, the State of New York, Governor Cuomo, Brookfield and IGY to enforce the community’s right to access to the public parkland resources that Brookfield supposedly promised to ensure as part of its winning bid for the marina lease.
The BPCA is not Governor Cuomo’s private management committee for the purpose of ensuring contribution money continues to pour into election coffers from wealthy yacht owners and shopping mall developers.
This community has been sold out again and again and again by the people who purport to protect its resources.
If the residents of the community are going to continue to pay the bills with ground rent subsidies, they should have a real say in the management of the neighborhood and its parks.
