Councilman Fidler, with whom we had been in contact, arrived and told about his contact with authorities at DOT and DEP. Not one to mince words, Councilman Fidler made clear that DOT and DEP each pointed the finger at the other for responsibility for correcting the problem on Frank Court. At the meeting, residents expressed their anger about a promise made over 2 years ago at a town hall meeting called by Senator Golden, and inspection of the Court. Joan Byrnes, representing Senator Marty Golden, advised the property owners that Senator Golden would hold a meeting at the corner of Seba Ave. and Frank Court, at 1245, May 15, at which authorities from both DOT and DEP would be present. This took place on the driest, sunniest day in a week, but there was still large puddles of water that had not made it to the drain--because the water cannot make it to the drain-- thanks to an inept patchwork job blocking drainage. This has gone on for over 9 years. The immediate problem of drainage is supposed to be taken care of within 48 hours, according to RAY A. EDWARDS, DIRECTOR OF ROADWAY REPAIR & MAINTENANCE. His number is (718) 222-7290/91 and his Fax is (718) 222-7288/92 and his email address is redwards@dot.nyc.gov Make your rights known, and don't let anyone off the hook. Senator Golden established a due date of June 12 for a follow-up meeting to determine the future of what is to be done to correct the problem on Frank Court and other Courts in Gerritsen Beach. Dare Court and Ivan Court are two that we are familiar with, and we would like to know about any others. DEP was about as willing to be helpful as a hole in the ground. One contact at DEP is Effie Ardizzone, Assistant Director COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS: (719) 595-3493/3496. fAX: (718) 595-3481. Email address: eardizzone@dep.nyc.gov. As a "community partner", you may want to contact DEP to motivate them.

He is applying as much pressure as he can to correct the problem on Frank Court. Today, Reeves Eisen, of his office, called with news that an ultimatum has been made to have something done asap or something in writing giving a time table. You will be getting a notice from GBPOA to attend our/your next property owner's meeting, WEDNESDAY, MAY 6th at St. James, at 7:30 pm.

As new president, I am currently reading back files of GBPOA meeting minutes to find what the individual representative's responses were in this matter. When an entire avenue (Gerritsen Avenue) can be torn up and repaved,, suddenly, out of the blue, we can only wonder why one residential Court can be ignored!

I think channel 5 and 7 also have people who do news segments for people in distress. At this point I think the GB Association should write letters to these TV stations. Perhaps with an association requesting help, it would provide more leverage than an individual. Fronk ct. residents have been putting up with this inconvenience much to long.
