On May 14, 2013, a drunk driver was arrested after ignoring the 4-way stop at the corner of 187th Loop and 41st Street and running her car onto the sidewalk. If children had been playing in the street or on the sidewalk, lives could have been lost. Drivers are consistently failing to fully stop at this 4 way stop and it is endangering our children. The Homeowners Association refuses to take action. We want the Homeowners Association to install speed bumps and blinking light stop signs. Please don't let a child get hit by a car this summer - sign this petition to show the Association that our kids should receive more attention than our landscaping!

Several diseases are now rampant in Bureau of Land Management (BLM) wild horse holding facilities due to poor husbandry and overcrowding. Currently, none of the diseases is life threatening, but all of the diseases make the horses uncomfortable and can permanently disfigure the horses (papilloma virus creates bloody warts all over their faces), making their chances for adoption nil, and making them vulnerable to being sent to slaughter. In addition, the horses' hooves are not being trimmed. Some are in danger of being permanently lame from lack of trimming for over one year. Clearly space is currently limited, and conditions are untenable for removing any more animals from the range and placing them in the BLM wild horse warehouse system.

My business will benefit from a centrally located ATM. The Economic Development Plan recommends installing an ATM at the Town Office as a way to support the local economy. Seasonal visitors don't realize there are no ATM's in town and many small businesses don't take credit cards. When vacationers don't bring cash or checks with them, they drive to Brunswick and many sales are lost.

As public school parents and concerned New York residents, we are in full support of the Teachers College students, faculty, staff, and alumni who are speaking out against the decision of Susan Fuhrman, Teachers College President, to award NY State Chancellor Merryl Tisch the “Medal for Distinguished Service.” This act raises two concerns about the ethics of the College. That's why I created a petition to Teachers College Board of Trustees, Susan Fuhrman, which says:

Except for raw milk, the regulation of the sale of which has been left for each state to decide on its own, all other raw dairy products are either illegal to sell or highly regulated. Cheese made with raw dairy must be aged at least 60 days. This means it is against federal law for me to buy or sell raw milk mozzarella or yogurt, or to even serve these items in a restaurant. As someone who feels very strongly about the benefits of dairy, and is a strong proponent of its consumption, and as someone who feels even more strongly about the need for dairy to be consumed raw and unadulterated, I feel my civil liberties are being infringed upon not only because the sale of the dairy products I wish to purchase is illegal, and I am therefore obligated to make my own, but, more importantly, because I am unable to start a business that will share and make more available this entire group of incredibly nutritious, delicious and wholesome food.

Have you ever been woken up by cars laying on their horn for so loud it feels like they are right in your bedroom? Honking when used correctly is a safety measure. But NYC drivers overuse honking, and they must be held accountable!

Time is muscle for a hear attack victim and brain damage for stroke patients. I would like emergency response teams to be deemed an emergency vehicle and would like the same respect given to us on the road on the way to the emergency to be the same as an ambulance or firefighter. This would envolve having a flashing light and be able to have the right of way on the roadways

The right of a resident to have an assigned parking space near their residence. The place which it is most needed.

It is an old effort, but some of us have not yet forgotten Shaker Aamer, the innocent UK resident still in Guantanamo years after he has been cleared for release. He his on hunger-strike and we should respond by being ever vigilant in demanding his release. He is not attached with Yemen in any way, so President Obama could do it today, but he has yet to tell us one good reason why he is still there.

Tell Sam to make sure mailings work!

Tell Gigi and Axel not to participate in the patriarchal oppression of moms by waiting until she is standing in their doorway supervising the actual cleaning. Life is better for everyone when Angie gets to be the super-cool, awesome, fun parental unit she is instead of playing the archetype of "nagging mom."
