Someone wrote to Comet's blog in response to our Community Alert about attempted larcenies from autos. He said they broke into a neighbor's vehicle on 54th Avenue/63rd Street at 9:40 pm. The perps were caught on video but they had hoodies on and you couldn't see their faces. He didn't give a date or how many perps but I assume the incident occurred over the past day or so and they match the description on our website. Captain Cody, 104th Precinct is checking to see if it was reported. Please stay alert and call 911 if you see anything suspicious! Our first Comet meeting of the year will be held on Monday, 2/6, 7:00 pm, Bethzatha Church at 85-20 57th Avenue - directions to meeting are on our website. Don't forget - we're collecting $10 dues for 2012! Here's our agenda: News/updates from electeds or their reps:
- As a followup to our 12/5 meeting we are particularly interested to hear what TLC/DOT is doing to address our problem with commuter vans making illegal pickups in our area and a business parking livery vehicles throughout Winfield Industrial Park around St. Mary's.
- Update about Port Authority's hearing concerning Cross Harbor Freight Program Tier 1 Environmental Impact Study. If this goes forward in west Maspeth it will have a BIG effect on ALL of us.
- Do we know why DOT has traffic counters on 69th Street @ 53rd and on Grand @ 69th Place for westbound traffic?
- Any word about acquiring land for park in west Maspeth?
- Introduce new Commanding Officer at 110th Precinct, DI Ron Leyson - if he's able to attend
- 104th/108th/110th will give our crime stats for the Comet area
