  • Chapter 5.1: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION
    Chapter 5.1: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION This chapter describes existing land use, zoning, and public policies applicable to the proposed project and evaluates potential significant adverse effects that may result from implementation of the proposed flood protection system. Potential significant adverse effects to land use as a result of implementing the flood protection system are also evaluated. Potential land use issues include known or likely changes in current land uses within the study area, as well as the proposed project’s potential effect on existing and future land use patterns. Potential zoning and public policy issues include the compatibility of the proposed project with existing zoning and consistency with existing applicable public policies. PROJECT AREA ONE Project Area One extends from Montgomery Street on the south to the north end of John V. Lindsay East River Park (East River Park) at about East 13th Street. Project Area One consists primarily of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt East River Drive (FDR Drive) right-of-way, a portion of Pier 42 and Corlears Hook Park as well as East River Park. The majority of Project Area One is within East River Park and includes four existing pedestrian bridges across the FDR Drive to East River Park (Corlears Hook, Delancey Street, East 6th Street, and East 10th Street Bridges) and the East Houston Street overpass. Project Area One is located within Manhattan Community District 3, and borders portions of the Lower East Side and East Village neighborhoods. PROJECT AREA TWO Project Area Two extends north and east from Project Area One, from East 13th Street to East 25th Street.

  • Remembering Guy Molinari (1928-2018)
    REMEMBERING GUY MOLINARI (1928-2018) For most Americans, the Holiday Season that begins with Thanksgiving and culminates on New Year's Eve is a time of celebration, reflection, and remembrance. Many thousands of Americans, in the Counting of their Blessings this year, will give Thanks to having had a Public Servant who made a positive impact on their lives and livelihoods. That person is former Congressman Guy Molinari, who departed this life on July 25 at the age of 89. If there is one word that comes to mind by those who had the privilege of having known Guy Molinari, that word is “Courage.” Courage is what Molinari exhibited when he joined the Marine Corps as a young man. At a celebratory stop at a bar in, ironically, Washington, D. C., en route to Basic Training at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Molinari led his fellow recruits to walk out of that bar in protest of a racist bartender who refused to serve one of the young men in Molinari's group who was African-American. Once in the Corps, Molinari, armed with a Law Degree, stood up to superior Officers Indifferent or Hostile towards Justice. In the frozen fields of South Korea Molinari thus established a personal template that would guide him through the rest of his extraordinary life; he would be a champion of those falsely accused of wrongdoing. Molinari returned from the Korean War to his beloved Staten Island in 1953. It was there he turned to the practice of real estate law. The rule of law was a principle by which Molinari was raised; his Grand-parents had immigrated to the U.

    Punishing Employees for Using Social Media Outside the Scope of Their Employment: What Are the Potential Legal Repercussions to the Private Employer? Marka B. Fleming, Esq.,* and Dr. Angela K. Miles** I. I. INTRODUCTION On June 6, 2011, Representative Anthony Weiner of New York admitted that he had publicly lied when he claimed that his Twitter feed had been hacked--allowing a lewd photo of a man‘s crotch to be posted publicly on his Twitter account. 1 Further, Weiner admitted that he had actually sent the photo of himself to a young woman in Seattle, Washington, a week earlier and he also acknowledged his involvement in ―several inappropriate‖ electronic relationships with numerous women over a three-year-period. 2 Weiner‘s actions raised several questions, including whether the congressman should resign from his job. 3 On June 16, 2011, ten days after his first press conference concerning the matter, Weiner announced his resignation from his congressional position.4 The question of whether an individual‘s use of social media outside the scope of employment5--meaning in no way furthering the employer‘s interests-- should affect his or her ability to maintain employment is not limited to politicians like Representative Weiner.6 Instead, * Assistant Professor, North Carolina A & T. ** Associate Professor, North Carolina A & T. 1 Chris Cuomo, Rep.
