At the monthly meeting of the board on Nov. 12, board members approved a resolution concerning Phase I of the vast MetroTech project and the search for an alternate plan for the development.The board%u2019s MetroTech subcommittee had originally recommended that the board send a letter to the Public Development Corporation of New York, Forest City MetroTech Associates, Brooklyn Union Gas, and Polytechnic Institute among others, requesting funding to the sum of $10,000 to pay for two full-time consultants to review the project and to recommend an alternate plan.The project, which is expected to displace 200 to 400 people living in the area, is anticipated to be certified into the City%u2019s land use review procedure early next year. Brooklyn Union Gas and the Securities Industry Automation Corporation are the anchor tenants for the project, with a major new building propose for each.The board did not adopt the committee recommendation. The resolution finally approved by the board recommends instead sending a letter to Pratt Institute, New York University and Columbia University to request assistance in developing in conjunction with Community Board 2 an alternate plan for the MetroTech development.Ethel Purnell, chair of the board%u2019s Planning and Development Committee, pointed to a number of inappropriately addressed issues concerning the project including the demolition of historic houses and the displacement of residents. Tentative plans, she said, proposed that residents move into the Pratt Towers or Farragut Houses. %u201cI know having lived in one of those developments that no one moves out of there unless someone carries them out. There are no vacancies there,%u201d she said.Board member Rev. Walter Murphy said that he had contacted Pratt Institute and received a lukewarm response to his request for help on an alternate plan. The new plan would only address Phase I as most of Phase II will be built on vacant land.Marcia Garibaldi, a resident of 351 Jay St., one of the buildings located on the proposed Brooklyn Union Gas Building site, addressed the MetroTech issue during the open session. %u201cThe bulk of the project is made up of back office space. Public funds are being used basically for private development,%u201d she said.%u201cThe City says developments like these keep jobs in New York City, but Brooklyn Union Gas is one of the anchor tenants and they%u2019re already located in Brooklyn and have no intention of moving out of the City,%u201d she added, and pointed out that SIAC too was only moving from one borough to another without bringing new jobs to the City. Garibaldi requested that the board give alternate proposals serious consideration.Another development issue was also discussed this night by the board members. Atlantic Terminal developer Jonathan Rose spoke at the open session, updating board members of changes in his project since the Board of Estimate approved it on Oct. 9. He announced that the City received a $10.2million Urban Development Action Grant for the project as well as a State Affordable Housing Grant.On a less positive note, he pointed out that the Federal lawsuit filed by South Brooklyn Legal Services to block the City from receiving the UDAG money on the basis that the project would cause segregation, effectively halted further progress on the development.%u201cUntil that suit is resolved, we will not be able to proceed,%u201d he said. %u201cTherefore our first job is to resolve that,%u201d he added. Rose also requested that board members tell minority contractors, women based businesses and small businesses to contact his firm if they were interested in construction contracts.In other business that night, the board%u2019s nominating committee announced the slate of officers for the new year. The nominations duplicated the persons currently holding the positions: Jerry Renzini as chair; Vivian Pattersen, first vice-chair; Albert Parham, second vice-chair; and Ann King, secretary. To challenge the incumbent first vice-chair, Sixta Ponce nominated Charles Hargett. At the December meeting, that office will be voted upon. The others, since they are uncontested, will be approved by a motion from the secretary.The board also approved several actions concerning housing in the downtown area. They voted 28-0-0 to recommend no demolition for properties at: 84 Bergen St.; 11 Irving Place; 444-446 Myrtle Avenue; and 78 Clinton Ave. The board also recommended for public auction the properties at 233 Greene Avenue, 236 Greene Ave., and 14 St. Mark%u2019s Place. They recommended that 183 Smith St. be withheld from auction.In other business, the board approved renewing permits for bridges connecting the Watchtower Society Buildings in the downtown area and recommended approval for a lease at a store at 4i Clinton Piace to America%u2019s Grateful Immigrants, Inc., a group that offers services to Hispanic residents in the area.Absent from the CB2 monthly meeting were: Dorothy Nies, Wallace Nottage, Kenneth Wheeler, Kathleen Mighty, Jon David Nalley, Litman Miller, Leslie Agard-Jones, Carolyn Hubbard, Thomas Massotti, Mort Starobin, Maureen McLeod, Maria Lemons, Steven Bartley.Fifth Plans PartyIn an attempt to encourage holiday shopping on Fifth Ave., the Fifth Ave. Merchants Association has organized a special promotional event Dec. 13, from noon to 4pm. At the Oct. 30 meeting of the association, 45 businesses who are part of the area covered by the local development corporation that runs from Flatbush Ave. to 24th St. decided to run the holiday festival that began last year.Plans call for Santa Claus to ride up and down the street in a horse-drawn buggy, several small choirs to perform on the sidewalks and the distribution of free candy canes to all customers. The day will also mark the beginning of a 12-day free raffle period with more than 50 gifts donated by the Fifth Ave. merchants.
