Mr. Vietri,
My name is []. I am a resident [frequent visitor/etc] of Long Island City, Queens, and I am writing to call for a public hearing in response to Public Notice NAN-2022-00658-EVI for the construction of a new ferry landing. I am concerned about this project and would like to request a public hearing because [concerns in your own words].
Points to potentially include (feel free to add your own):
- impact on park users [noise, disruption of view]
- impact of this particular location versus current location
- impact on the environment [ pollution, restored wetlands, migrations, noise, increased traffic]
- potential impact on resiliency features in park
- importance of neighborhood hearing about these plans before they are approved, since has been no outreach
- lack of public comment/information [how location chosen/height of structures/impact on views/justification for need for additional ferries here when so close to main terminal]
Sincerely,
[Name]
