Perhaps Council Member Rosenthal could just start by insuring she and/or her staff responds in some fashion to constituent emails or follows up on community issues raised during in-person visits to the Columbus Avenue office. So far, I’m 0-3. Never happened with Gale Brewer.

Here here! I’m 0-3 as well. I’m also 0-2 with Gale Brewer, 0-2 with Scott Stringer and 0-1 with the Mayor. Oh, and I’m 0-3 with our Community Board. But what am I except a tax-paying citizen. They all stink as far as I’m concerned!

I tried to attend theTown Hall meeting in the pouring rain. A local newspaper listed its location as 563 Columbus. The place was closed with a sign, closed for Town Hall Meeting with no address given. Doesn’t make sense to me. At least post the address especially since it was wrongly reported in the newspaper.
Also I went to the office, wrote up a comment–first time ever in my life–and was told I would be contacted. That was over a month ago. No one has called. I am wondering about this operation.

I just read the other comments and, same as me, no one has ever bothered responding to their attempts to reach this organization. I feel it is shameful to treat your constituents like that as if you have no interest whatsoever in what they have to say. I am not very impressed, and this turns people off local politics. Whose phone call or emails does Helen Rosenthal feel it is worthwhile to return? I would just like to know who rates a response. Perhaps you could just post it on the door of the office so I don’t waste any more of my time.

It bothers me when elected officials don’t respond to their constituents. Come election time, I don’t vote along party lines or favorites – I vote for the person who has responded or at a minimum, acknowledged, my inquiry.
