·         The postcard that advertises what the proposed site is going to look like is very misleading.  It is very presumptive in adding in green open fields and sports fields on what is really NYU’s property.  Also, all along here, this is a piece of city property that commercial trucking company person is renting.  He’s added in esplanades with trees, and none of that really has anything to do with this site.  I’m not sure the details of his business dealings, but we are just really opposed and believe it is really dishonest.

·         There is deception going from the people representing TransGas.  In particular one gentleman, Mark Sindeband,  told me that tens of millions of dollars would be given to the community for projects such as McCarnen Park, restoration of McCarren Park, the McCarren park pool, etc.  He said these are the types of things we can do for your community.  When I pressed him on the number of 10 million dollars, he stepped back and said oh, it wouldn’t really be fair for me to say that’s the number.  And I said well, what’s the number, do you have a number, and he did not have a number.

·         I would like to say that the postcard campaign they sent out to the community, which I understand was over 5,000 postcards, I’m not sure of that number, of which I didn’t receive one, they also show what they’re calling an artist’s rendition of their project.  In the postcard it shows other projects, a marina, a ballpark, a museum, and these are all projects the community has spoken about for years.  The postcard makes it look like, that they’re going to be doing these projects and that is very deceptive.

·         I hope that our lawyers defeat you.  It’s disgusting that you are writing lies and putting it on print with people on vacation.
