Fw: blog

So here goes…a city that has walkable areas..places that are clean safe, affordable homes and condos, access to public services…

Today I was quoted about a traffic study..primarily because we are on Main St USA everyday, 24 7 with our headquarters,…our volunteers and staff have almost gotten hit in traffic that flys..Mrs Cohen often says with Mickie..I almost got hit again today..so a choice is made, speak up or shut up..

Today the empowering voice of people, is oten stifled for the sake of political correctness…very sad, in a city of Thomas Paine and a county of the Bill of Rights…the history of our county dictates we speak up no question..I rode through Mamoroneck that other day..all cars stop while pedestrians are in the crosswalk…period….People are the priority…not cars rushing to nowhere…people skip our 95 toll to go past our headquarters..it would be one thing if it was at a slow pace, but no way..my vol. has to go to court in July in order to talk about witnessing someone crossing being hit..walkable cities along with affordable homes, make it worthwhile..affordable condos…community includes all different aspects, and descision makers who make decisions are not on Main Street weekly, not even bi weekly…so heres to changing our community from the bottom up…

 

Today we pray for those in Tornados, earthquakers, harmsway…pray for those in need, I am sure Habitat will be there to help for sure..

In Texas and Oklahoma .. We prepare now for our work…for our future…for rebuilding the flood home on Howard Avenue in Mamoroneck…our tornado came two years ago in Mamonroneck, New Rochelle , Yonkers , Bronxille, Harrison ..hundreds of families flooded…pray for those who we need to help fix their homes, for those who dream of new homes.. pray for us…Know that this Passover, Easter season, you are in my prayers, no question…

For a blessing from our God, who calls us all to help one another, no matter if it is New Orleans , or Mamoroneck or White Oak in New Rochelle , or Somers, or wherever.. God bless you…with gratitude!  J

Ps have a blessed Good Friday..j
