Agenda

NYPD

• Crime stats 
• How has the Quality of Life Teams been working out? 
• Chain swapping scam - We know the 104th is getting hit. What about the 108th and 110th? Any arrests?
• Now that school is starting, will any coverage be given to dismissal on the 104th/110th border? In the past we've had problems at Burger King in the S&S mall as well as Elmhurst park. We have a lot of kids from PS58, IS73 and Maspeth HS. Kids from IS5 have also been known to come up here. We don't want anyone to get hurt.
• Do you monitor APLs (accident prone locations) and send suggestions to DOT? For example - Maurice/LIE, 74th/Grand, 69th/Grand, Exits 18 & 19.
• RVs continue to be a problem, especially in the 108th - 55 Ave/50th Street
• Allegedly no summonses being written for illegally parked vehicles, saving spaces with cones, etc. when people submit 311 calls. Complaints come from residents in the 104th & 110th.
• Is the Asian Outreach Team still visiting Elmhurst Park?

Elected Officials

• Any update on the Botanical Garden project on 85th Street? Residents have been planting crops this summer in the contaminated soil.
• Any update regarding cameras/lighting for the 55th Avenue footbridge?
• 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 Avenue/LIE
