Agenda NYPD

• Crime stats 
• Has there been an increase in car thefts and catalytic converter thefts? Any arrests?
• Chain snatchings - have there been any more in our area?
• APLs (accident prone locations) Any safety ideas sent to DOT for consideration? The 104th is of particular concern.
• RVs - any update?

Elected Officials' reps

• Any update on the Botanical Garden project on 85th Street? Residents have been planting crops this summer in the contaminated soil.
• Lighting/cameras for the 55th Avenue bridge
• Any update regarding the noise coming from the LIRR and trash trains being parked on the tracks along Calamus and Kneeland Avenues?
• Any update on Exits 18 and 19? Accidents continue. 
• Maurice Ave/LIE also seems to be a chronic accident location. 
• The recent notices sent out by CON ED telling people that another customer applied for service at their address. If they didn't move they should notify CON ED or service would be discontinued. Several people received the notice and called but one of them woke up one morning and electricity was cut off. Another person got a cut off notice after he called CON ED. Is this a scam?  Any updates??
