A Week of Bronx History!!!

What a week!!!!

*On Monday-We learn that The Great "Koppell-Cassino" Debate was everything we thought it was. I'm glad it was over in 30 minutes. Any more time, Tony would have taken the knifes out-literally. Wellll-we really do not know if that is true BUT we did find out that Anthony Cassino, like in 2005, will support Mayor Bloomberg. many will wonder how LDA backers Kenny Agosto & Joe McManus-BIG Bill Thompson Fans will take this???

BRONXTALK-MONDAY, JULY 27, 2009

*On Monday-Kingsbridge Armory Public Hearing Night. Firstly, Thank You President Diaz for holding a 2ND PUBLIC HEARING to learn more about the delicate community task at hand. We learned many things: a) The Community will get schools
b) The community is starting with a surety of 10% community space
c) The Community Board will not back a "living wage" and proposes another supermarket in the area, either creating competition-or destroying Mom and Pop businesses.
Board Member John Harris will be long remembered for his proposal-one way or another. we also thank our council candidates; Tapia & Koppell, for reminding The Borough President to include schools into the plan. Much kudos goes to Mr Koppell for working tirelessly behind the scenes for the school plan

On Tuesday-OUR OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR OUR CANDIDATES

Mayor Bill Thompson
Public Advocate Eric Giola
Council Candidate (14th)-Yudelka Tapia
Council Candidate (11th) G. Oliver Koppell

And we were very happy and honored to learn our news reached The Daily News & Room 8 Political Blogs.

On Wednesday-Maybe the best phone call we got-from the Bronx Democratic Chairman-Mr Carl Heastie. it was a wonderful 2 hour conversation and i think we discussed a great deal about the Northwest Bronx area. It is not Mr Heastie's fault, being a new Chairman, that he does not know the political "sensitivities" regarding The Northwest Bronx. after all, in 2008 and prior, he was just an Assemblyman-in Wakefield. Over the course of the last 9 months-after the Bronx Political war-we finally got his attention. AND HE LISTENED and i think now understands that we have been serving the Northwest Bronx since 2003-we are not going anywhere-which is why political non neighborhood operatives will not work in our area-we work, live, spend money and love our area!!!! Thank You Mr Heastie for the call.
