Here is what i would do if i could be Dromm for a day. Easy fixes, very little money. These should be standard of living for a tax paying citizen. Anything else?
1) end open prostitution. its so weird and creepy that this even happens in 2019. Roosevelt will always be a dump until they clean this up
2) close the fentanyl lab behind kitchen 79. its been talked on here before. its so painfully obvious. perhaps cops are involved.
3) make the food trucks move. allow the streets and sidewalks to be cleaned for once. the repeating same taco truck along Roosevelt, the permanent grocery store outside 74th st station. the never moving food trucks that block diversity plaza.
4) free up our sidewalks. no more cheap cloths spilling onto 82nd st. or the dollar stores along 37th. or the weekly junk sale at ps69. we have a ton of people in the neighborhood., its getting harder and harder to walk around with all the impediments.
5) have the endless metermaid army enforce actual parking laws. end double parking along 37th ave and bring back no parking on Roosevelt during business hours.
6) bring back the cops. We have over 100k tax payers, and about zero cop presence. Where are they? where does our $ go?
Please run for public office...JH needs you! I agree on all counts except maybe the PS 69 flea market...that's actually cute and I don't mind it. Here's other things:
- Roosevelt Avenue needs a BID. I don't care that Queens United or that other scrappy little "activist" groups hate it. Roosevelt is an embarassing dump and needs a complete overhaul. Our local politicians should fight for the betterment of the community.
- All of these soliciting massage parlors should immediately be shut down and their licenses revoked. Also, there should be no new licenses issued, effective immediately.
- Honestly, until Roosevelt Ave can get its act together, there should be an immediate ban on new liquor licenses for establishments on Roosevelt as well.
- Would love to fight for some beautification efforts along Northern Blvd when they reimagine traffic flow
- 37th Avenue needs some help too, but chiefly, elected officials should be on the forefront of attracting new and vibrant businesses there so that we cut down on the amount of empty stores (and cheap junky stores too).
