At the term limits hearing, AY opponents and supporters make their mark

Atlantic Yards Report

Norman Oder scoured the NY Time, "City Room" blog coverage of yesterday's public hearing on the extension of term-limits for Atlantic Yards references. What would a political circus be without big-wigs, financial beneficiaries of the Atlantic Yards Community Benefits Agreement and those crazy Atlantic Yards watchdoggies?

Check out Oder's hearing cliff-notes, which includes excerpts by City Councilmember Letitia James, Prospect Heights Action Coalition's Patti Hagan, preservationist Christabel Gough, Marie Louis of Community Benefits Agreement signatory BUILD (Brooklyn United for Innovative Local Development), BUILD CEO James Caldwell, Atlantic Yards opponent and blogger Michael White, and Council of Brooklyn Neighborhoods Secretary Jim Vogel.
