stadium protest

Rain did not stop dozens of Elmont, Valley Stream and South Floral Park residents from meeting to hear about the plans for the south lot at Elmont's Belmont Park.

"This is the first time I am hearing about a soccer stadium and I live right here" said one attendee pointing to her home across the street for the south lot.

"I have visited the soccer stadium website ... the website is slick and fancy but the plan is bad for Elmont", said another resident.  "A soccer stadium does not compliment the historic Belmont Park and it will impact property values for the neighboring homes".

joe smith

This crossed my desk today, “… and Aubrey, what’s the status of the Joe Smith case?  I hope it’s not forgotten?!”

Well EoL Reader, Smith was formally arrasted and charged with the crime on March 29 and I suspect from your emphasis on “?!” you are asking a deeper question.  Will Joe Smith like Vinny Prisco get away with the ongoing intimidation of Nassau County (Elmont) residents on behalf of the Long Island Republican establishment?  Will Republican dollar$ subvert the public good - again?  The answer remains to be seen.
