Atlantic Yards CDC set to meet again next Thursday, presumably to approve budget. No agenda yet.

Barely three weeks after the March 26 meeting (my coverage) of the (purportedly) advisory Atlantic Yards Community Development Corporation, the AY CDC, which is supposed to meet quarterly but has rarely met that schedule, is set to meet again, at 3 pm on Thursday, April 18.

Though no agenda has yet surfaced, it's likely the meeting is aimed to get the directors to approve the annual $250,000 budget for the year that began April 1. That didn't happen on March 26, because the unexpected absence of one director meant there was no quorum.

That said, it's possible other information may surface and/or be discussed. (I'll post the agenda when it surfaces.)

Meeting details

The meeting will be held at Empire State Development, 633 Third Avenue – 37th Floor Conference Room, It also will be webcast.

Due to purported building procedures, members of the public attending in-person should RSVP by 4:30 pm on Wednesday, April 17. Members of the press should call (800) 260-7313; members of the public should call (212) 803-3795.

Members of the public may submit comments on the Agenda items in writing to AYCDCBdMtg@esd.ny.gov by 3 pm on Wednesday, April 17. Of course, that leaves limited time to peruse the typically vague agenda, and none to comment in response to the discussions.

All comments received by the deadline will be distributed to the Directors prior to the meeting and will be posted online.
