NYCkayaker Yonkers?

[bonnie13 at earthlink.net]

I'm confused - I thought that when there was that whole county-shows-city-who's-boss flap a couple of years ago 

http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9906E0DF163BF932A35751C0A9629C8B63&scp=1&sq=Yonkers+Boathouse+alexander+street+plan&st=nyt

there was enough public objection that they managed to find a way to let the boathouse stay. 

Do they run some sort of memory-erase program on these planners once every couple of years or something? Maybe consideration of what's actually already there & working is thought to be too mind-cluttering to allow room for Vision?

Sorry. Practical question is is - would the Yonkers Paddling & Rowing Club like people to be sending emails anywhere? It was great that you got the expansion but is this business with the Alexander Street Plan going to force that to be immediately followed with contraction? 

My immediate reaction to Mike's emails was "Oh no, not again, who do we write to?" but didn't want to just go crazy without asking for more info. Sorry, I know the discussion is probably in full swing on the Yonkers list but since it got mentioned here, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask for more detail.

btw I posted about Pier 40 yesterday - www.frogma.blogspot.com - there's a gentleman from Vermont who left a comment about a similar situation they're having & I guess that's what got me thinking about the Yonkers thing & wondering if the club would like any letters of support from friends.
