Mohegan Lake Is Awesome, In 3 Minutes, Or Less

[Update 4/17/2014: Unless logic and reasoning prevail, today is the last day you can submit your public, written comments on the Faith Bible Church proposal. If you need instructions on how to get them into the record, please email me at YorktownCode@gmail.com.]

You, Yorktown resident, are allowed 3 minutes at the "courtesy of the floor" portion of all Town Board meetings.  It's a nice thing that our local government affords us.  I took to the floor for my 3 mins this Tuesday.  I got distracted at the start and went over my 3 mins (you can hear the timer go off and then my voice raise, and race, to finish in the video), but hope I was respectful.

I'm not sure if you've been following the Faith Bible Church issue, but it's a thing I've been grappling with for about 4 years. It speaks to the deficiencies of the Yorktown planning, zoning, building and permitting processes.  I welcome you to join with me to fix our broken system.  It's no one's fault, but it's all of our responsibility to fix the system. 

In summary: Save Mohegan Lake
