The council also installed new officers for the coming year at the meeting which was held at the First Unitarian Church on Monroe Place.The new officers are: President Patrice Cartier, Vice President Grace Goff, and Treasurer Saul Kemp. Former president Brad Smith is the new secretary and Vinny Stroessner is corresoinding secretary.Lt. Fireman William Moskoff and four other firefighters from Engine Company 205 and Hook and Ladder 218 were on hand to receive a plaque dedicated to both groups for work done in extinguishing a fire at 75 Henry St. on April 4. According to a police spokesman, the firemen saved three lives, two of them police officers who were trapped in an elevator.Although he was not present at the meeting, 18-year old Cobble HU1 resident Adam Walsh got an award for outstanding service. Earlier this year Walsh turned in to police a suitcase he found containing a large sum of money. When asked at the tune why he didn%u2019t just keep the money, Walch said: %u201cI did what was right.%u201dGrace Goff, the incoming vice-president of the Council, was awarded for volunteer work, particularly with the Civilian Observation Patrol. Goff, a member of the Brooklyn Heights Association, patrolled the 84th precinct with other members of B.H.A. to help keep the area safe.Also awarded were outgoing President Brad Smith and Vice-President Ellen HayesAmong those honored were, from the left: Fireman Fred Russo, Paul Gottlieb, RobertTobias and John Stovick (Phoenix/Neville Photos)for their work on the council.In other business, Smith asked Police Capt. John Schneider what could be done about prostitution near Atlantic and Fourth Avenues. Schneider said that while %u201ca dozen arrests have been made by plainclothesmen%u201d and %u201cseveral others%u201d by uniformed officers, penalties by the courts have been too light to solve the problem.%u201cAfter arrests have been made, the same individuals are on the street the next day,%u201d he said. He then added that the prostitution problem in that area is going to be tough to crack.Smith also asked Schneider how traffic would be dealt with in Brooklyn Heights during liberty Weekend. Schneider said, %u201cTraffic patterns will be analyzed as they occur.%u201d Many streets in the area near the waterfront will be closed at least partially toall but emergency vehicles on July 4. The captain cautioned residents to use public transportation and leave the car at home. But if someone does drive, he said, %u201cOnce you leave the area it will be hard to get back in. And if you%u2019re expecting deliveries, that%u2019s the wrong time to be expecting deliveries.%u201dOne woman who said she was from the Farragut Housing Project complained of aOutgoing council president Brad Smithintroduces new president Janice Carter.fire hydrant on the comer of Sands and Navy Streets which gushes water non-stop and creates a sewage problem. Schneider directed the question to Lt. Fireman Moskoff, who explained that while such matters are usually the work of the Water Department, he would see that a collar is put on the hydrant.Councilman Asks For More Resource Recovery HearingsHeights City Councilman Abe Gerges (29th District) sent a letter June 18 to Commissioner Henry Williams of the State Department of Environmental Conservation requesting an additional hearing in September on the granting of State permits for the construction of the Resource Recovery plant at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Hearings havealready been scheduled for July 15th at 2pm, and 7pm at Long Island University%u2019s Brooklyn Center.Because so many residents who will be affected by this plant will be away for the summer, I feel it is imerative for the State to set up an additional hearing in September,%u201d Gerges said.c o u n c il o n THE%ENVIRONMENTO F HEW YORK C ITYOnce you taste a field ripened tomatoyoufll never settle for less.
