Sunnyside Graffiti Cleanup Day: Sept. 11

Aug. 30, 2010 By Christian Murray

The Sunnyside United Neighborhood Network (SUNN) is holding its fall graffiti cleanup event on Saturday, September 11, at 10 am. Volunteers will meet outside of the Sunnyside Reform Church on Skillman Ave and 48th Street.

The entire neighborhood is encouraged to volunteer and in past events more than 100 people have turned out.

Volunteers are typically split into groups, with each group responsible to clean up a particular section of the neighborhood. Each group will clean or paint over graffiti on walls, store gates and public fixtures.

SUNN supplies the paint and supplies; volunteers from the community supply the elbow grease.

For further information, please call SUNN at 646-298-8669 or visit the website: http://sunnysideunited.com

Negotiations regarding the New York State budget have just concluded a few days ago and a budget has passed after more than two weeks of delays. But while Gov. Kathy Hochul has proclaimed this year’s ‘bold agenda’ aims to make New York ‘safer,’ there hasn’t been so much as a whisper about the safety issue New Yorkers actually care about – New York States’s dangerous bail reform laws and the State’s absence of a ‘dangerousness standard,’ which would allow judges to detain without bail those defendants that pose a present a clear and present danger to our communities. (The 49 other states and the federal government have a dangerousness standard. NY State is the only state that lacks this essential protection from the State’s most dangerous offenders.)
