MAYOR
and NVDC DEFEND
CONTRACT FOR
HILLSIDE AVENUE CAMPUS
3-6-2002
MEETING WITH CITY OFFICIALS
AND HILLSIDE ASSOCIATION BOARD AND MEMBERS AT THE BENEDICT-MILLER HOUSE
Questioning frequently
focused on the $5,000 per month payment to be made by the Talmudic Institute
for the Hillside Avenue campus via a 50 year contract.
Michael O'Connor (Director of NVDC) reasoned
that all Hillside concerns had been addressed in the contract and that in lieu
of rental dollars the city and neighborhood were benefiting from mandatory
home purchases in Overlook and Hillside by the group, maintenance requirements
for campus upkeep and preservation, increased neighborhood stability through
the new occupants and the like. Ray Rivard of the Higher Education Board
rebutted that the lease amounted to 75˘ a sq. ft. for 80,000 sq feet instead
of the commercial average of $10 per sq ft.
Mayor Michael Jarjura stressed aspects of incorporating our new neighbors
(Talmudic Institute) into our community and has already had discussions with
their leadership regarding aspects of the meticulous nature of
"Waterbury Style" property maintenance. His comments referenced many
complaints from Overlook residents as to the "shoddy" care being taken of
yards and properties already purchased by Yeshiva related families.

DIRECT-TV BLIMP
VISITS HILLSIDE
At 2PM, a look
skyward yielded a clear view of the low flying Direct TV blimp as it
hovered over the Hillside Neighborhood already alive with brilliant
autumn foliage.
The deep blue dirigible with bold white lettering slowly drifted
southward then changed direction and headed off into the south west.
Hope they enjoyed the view as much as we did.
