ball park and high rise vote coming up

there is an important vote concerning the sfc project , it will really affect Yonkers tax dollars since money is not earmarked for the underground utilities and infrastructure and there is nothing in writing on who is going to pay for it.
most likely yonkers residents will get stuck with it if it not in writing with all the i and T's checked. we already have a yonkers income tax and nothing to show for it, since the city has been chronically mismanaged.
the developer over at ridge hill just screwed the union guys that he had fill the meeting halls and push for a YES vote on that project. After all that union support the developer has reneged and hired non union labor.

planning board meeting for four properties on Warburton

there have been fliers posted all over the neighborhood, the meeting tonight concerns the four properties at the north west side of warburton closer to the catering hall/ palisades boat club entrance.
1171,1175,1187,1189 warburton.
the million dollar question is what height are they planning to build and what varience are they asking for.
their was a lot of talk of trying to get this neighborhood rezoned to a low rise level.
maybe that is why they are pushing this through in the weak market.
