Borough pols boost Ferrer
NY Daily News
by Michael Saul
As he picked up endorsements from six Brooklyn officeholders yesterday, mayoral candidate Fernando Ferrer said he has major reservations about the secrecy surrounding the planned Nets arena.
"To call that process not transparent is probably the understatement of the year."
"There is next to nothing being discussed in the public domain with respect to the Nets aren."
"The public has a right to know who will be displaced, how much will it cost, what is the math of this project. ... The community has a right to the answers to those and many other questions. The answers have not been forthcoming."
NoLandGrab: Will this cause City Council Speaker Gifford Miller to feel the heat and finally hold hearings on the $100 million that is budgeted for the Nets arena in next year's NYC budget?
