Notes From The CB14 Monthly Meeting
Community Board 14 held its monthly meeting Monday night at Edward R. Murrow High School. The next monthly meeting will be Monday, June 10, and the public is welcome to attend. Here’s what happened this month:
- All five mayoral candidates have now been confirmed for Thursday’s Shirley Chisholm Democratic Club forum.
- Last month’s Youth Conference was the best yet, with participation from many of the committee members and upwards of 600 kids learning about jobs, internships, and other resources.
- Steven Rosenberg of the Brooklyn Public Library was on hand to discuss the most recent proposed (36%) budget cut. He encouraged neighbors to sign an online petition, email elected officials through BPL, or sign a petition at any library branch. He also noted that while BPL is considering selling a few buildings, no neighborhood will be left without service.
- Mohammad Razvi of COPO instructed attendees to call 718-434-3266 if you know someone who is still at a hotel as a result of Hurricane Sandy.
