They should have known about this a long time ago and should have informed the community before the leases were signed, not after. Is the problem jobs?\u00a0 The types of jobs? Do you have solutions? What is the real complaint? The community wants to know.<\/p>\n<p>East New York has a major problem of always fighting from behind because the elected officials and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.brooklyncb5.org\/about\/current-board-members\/\">Community Board 5<\/a><\/strong> continue to be asleep at the wheel and continue to show incompetence. They speak out after the community has been hit and suffering. Another important example; the elected officials and Community Board 5 Executives voiced their objection to the privatization of NYCHA <em><strong>after<\/strong><\/em> it was <a href=\"https:\/\/nycnewsnetwork.com\/eastnewyork\/oped-charles-and-inez-barron-and-community-board-5-forced-to-have-emergency-town-hall-after-being-exposed-for-not-informing-their-constituents-that-nycha-housing-is-being-sold-to-private-developers\/\"><strong>exposed by East New York News<\/strong><\/a> and <em><strong>after<\/strong> <\/em>the agreements with the private developers had been signed.<\/p>\n<p>This time they put their incompetence in writing. (See their so-called &#8220;Letter of Outrage&#8221; below)\u00a0 They had to know, or should have known,\u00a0 that Amazon was looking at all of those warehouses in East New York with &#8220;For Lease&#8221; and &#8220;For Sale&#8221; signs, sitting next to the airport and Van Wyck Expressway.\u00a0 If you do not understand these logistics in your community then you should not be in office or representing the community on any level.<\/p>\n<p>For the past 20 years the community has been fighting from behind and losing every step of the way. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nycnewsnetwork.com\/eastnewyork\/op-ed-east-new-york-in-crisis-as-city-officials-sell-nycha-housing-to-questionable-private-developers-which-may-lead-to-high-speed-gentrification-and-displacement-of-residents\/\">NYCHA has been privatized<\/a><\/strong>, affordable housing is really a lottery system with less than 1% of residents having access to &#8220;affordable&#8221; housing and now one of the largest businesses in the world is coming to East New York and the elected officials and Community Board 5 Executives were sleep at the wheel while the deal was being made.\u00a0 If they weren&#8217;t sleep then they are incompetent or in on the deal. In either case, the community continues to suffer.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line; there are many people in the community who need jobs and there were no City or State set asides, so the best anyone can do is to work with Amazon to make sure that community members have a first shot at landing the jobs and that workers are treated fairly, which is a discussion that should have happened before leases were signed. It&#8217;s reckless to stop jobs from coming into a neighborhood where there is high unemployment. It&#8217;s easy to say you do not want Amazon coming into your neighborhood when you already have a job.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Here&#8217;s the so-called &#8220;Letter of
