It's not a good answer when my district can't find parking.

In fact, the firehouses are telling me come up with a bill, and I I've introduced it in this council, to identify where the hydrants are because people are parked in in Ridgewood, in Glendale, in Maspid, in Middle Village, They're parked in front of hydrants on a nightly basis.

We don't have enough cops to even answer to three one ones.

So you're leaving us on our own.

We're gonna get more flooding, and we're going to get less parking.
