To Van Bramer, as the preventable incident illustrates, “there is still more work to be done to make Queens Boulevard safer for all and I remain committed to that goal,” he said. “The implementation of the Justice for Hit-and-Run Victims Act will be a strong deterrent and will potentially save lives once it takes effect on Dec. 29,” Van Bramer added. “Until then I will continue working with the NYPD to tighten enforcement on reckless driving to ensure no New Yorker will ever fear losing their life on our City streets.” Van Bramer lauded the 108th Precinct’s efforts to make the streets of every district safer for cyclists, motorists and pedestrians, as officers continue to write summons and enforce traffic laws. Data for the year show a drop in casualties, according to Hennessy. There have been zero traffic-related fatalities in 2014, compared to 12 in 2013. Additionally, officers have arrested 112 drunk drivers in 2014, double the number from last year, and written twice as many summons for failure to yield. Speeding tickets in the command have also risen about 30 percent in 2014, it was noted. Paul Steely White, executive director of Transportation Alternatives, encouraged in a statement “anyone with information to come forward and help authorities find and arrest the hit-and-run driver involved in Thursday morning’s crash.” “Striking someone with a car and fleeing the scene is a heinous crime,” he stated. “Hit-and-run drivers leave victims exposed and without treatment in the street, and they leave investigators and families without key information.” “We also look forward to working with the Council Member and the Department of Transportation toward permanent fixes to make the hazardous corridor of Queens Boulevard safer for pedestrians,” White added. Anyone with details about this incident is encouraged to call the Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800- 577-TIPS. You may also log onto its website at www.nypdcrimestoppers.com., or text message tips to 274637(CRIMES), then enter TIP577. -CONTINUED FROM PG. 11- 53 • TIMES, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2014 R’wood Activist On Landlord Watchlist -CONTINUED FROM PG. 12- GRRC resolved previous violations against the property in the process of renovating the structure. He cited the sale of the three condo units as further evidence, noting lending institutions would not have issued mortgages to the buyers if the property had outstanding violations on it at closing time. “All three families have mortgages. They wouldn’t have gotten the loans if the buildings had violations,” Kerzner said. “Clearly, this is an error. ... It just goes to show you they (the public advocate’s office) weren’t all that diligent in checking things out.” Mirabile added in an interview with the Times Newsweekly on Tuesday the list doesn’t even reflect the actual owner of the building. Once the first condo unit was sold at 1865 Linden St., ownership was transferred to the condominium’s board of managers, as required by law; the board is comprised of all three condo owners. “Even that information was really erroneous,” she said. After being apprised of the situation, Mirabile stated, the Public Advocate’s office informed her the list is being reviewed and revised, and any properties found to be erroneously included on the list would be removed. Aja Worthy-Davis, a spokesperson for Public Advocate James, told the Times Newsweekly a review of the list is ongoing and revisions would be made as needed. Kerzner stated last Thursday he expects an apology from James over the error—“and she’d better not just say, ‘We made a mistake.’” The Landlord Watch List is available online at www.landlordwatchlist.com.
