Community Board to hold monthly meeting at Diversity Plaza Thursday

Plazameeting

June 17, 2015 By Michael Florio

Community Board 3 will be hosting its June meeting at Diversity Plaza Thursday.

This will be the third straight year that the board has held its meeting at the well-known venue. It will begin at 7 pm.

The outdoor meeting provides the public with a window into the workings of the board as well as the individuals who are making the decisions on behalf or residents, according to elected officials.

The event is held at plaza since it is a visible area that draws a lot of residents, particularly those going to and from the train.

Many of these people do not even know what a community board is, or what they do, and will have the opportunity to conveniently watch the process in action.

Both of the previous meetings drew a large audience.

Councilman Daniel Dromm and 115th Precinct Captain Brian Hennessy are both scheduled to speak tomorrow, as well as representatives from the Louis Armstrong House Museum and Neighborhood Housing Service.

Police from the 110th Precinct in Elmhurst and Transit District 20 are looking for a couple who robbed a subway rider at the Woodhaven Boulevard station near the Queens Center Mall on the night of Thursday, May 29.

A 45-year-old victim was walking through the station at around 9:15 p.m. when he was approached by a man and a woman. When she asked him for money, her partner punched the victim in the back of his shoulder. The two strangers forcibly removed $1,500 from his pockets and fled the station onto Woodhaven Boulevard in an unknown direction. The victim sustained minor injuries but was not hospitalized after the encounter, police said Tuesday.
