COMET: Communities of Maspeth & Elmhurst Together

Flying Wallendas at Smile on Maspeth Day

9/15/2019

Hi All,

Just when you think Maspeth Federal's Smile on Maspeth Day for the kids couldn't get better, we heard that the Flying Wallendas will be doing several performances at the event today.

The event runs from 11:00 am - 4:00 pm in the bank's parking lot (69th Street/Grand Avenue).

It's going to a great fun opportunity!

NOTE: You may not live in the project area but it may affect the way you travel.

This will be one of many advisories regarding this project.

Make sure you take photos of your property in the event you need to file a claim.

COMET will be working with the agency/contractor to find locations to store their construction equipment/materials to minimize parking problems.

Important Sewer Project meeting 9/10

9/8/2019

Hi All,

See the attached flier with regard to an upcoming meeting with the Department of Design & Construction (DDC) this Tuesday, September 10th, 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm in IS 73 auditorium, 54th Avenue at 70th Street. Councilman Holden and Assemblyman Barnwell will be present.

The flier states Calamus Avenue and 70th Street sewer project but keep in mind the project also includes a portion of 54th Avenue, 71st Street to Grand Avenue, Grand Avenue to Mazeau Street and the entire length of Mazeau Street.

I urge anyone living on these streets or living near to the intersection of these streets to attend. We don't know where materials and equipment will be stored and it's important we all have a chance to ask questions including how to file claims for damages, if need be. I urge everyone to take pictures of their property prior to the start of this project.

I don't know if individual homes will be getting the notification so please pass the word. COMET will have someone to help translate for Mandarin-speaking residents since I'm not sure if the agency will provide a translator.

Mazeau Overpass/Homeless Issue

This is great news for the community as well as the homeless couple. Thank you to Assemblyman Barnwell's office for their efforts and keeping us updated!

Hi Roe,

I’m happy to inform you that the individuals that were living on the Mazeau Street overpass have accepted help from DHS (Department of Homeless Services) and have left the area. The entire site has been cleaned by the NYS DOT; I’ve attached photos from the cleanup on 8/20. Please let me know if any issues remain with this area.

Best,
