<span style="font-size: 12.5pt;">Assemblyman
Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) has unveiled his new website DOVHIKIND.COM, which
offers viewers a detailed look at the Assemblyman’s life-long community
activism and advocacy. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: .3in; margin-top: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: .3in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12.5pt;">Even
before he was elected to public office, Hikind toiled on behalf of his community.
His unwavering commitment to Soviet and Syrian Jewry, to bringing justice to Nazi
War Criminals, and to easing the plight of the Jewish poor, became themes that
would last a lifetime and began to define Hikind as a fearless champion of his
community. Representing Brooklyn’s <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>48<sup>th</sup>
Assembly District since 1983, Hikind continues to serve as a constant reminder
of what we can accomplish when we work <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">together</i>
to make life better for <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">everyone</i>.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: .3in; margin-top: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: .3in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12.5pt;">“Technology
continues to make the world a smaller place,” said the Assemblyman. “It’s
easier now than ever before to find information and quickly, but the nature of
the internet also allows for plenty of false information. Consequently, the
idea of having a website that allows our community to look back on what we’ve
accomplished was very attractive to me. Many of the people who will visit my website may not have born yet when I took office. It's an opportunity to share with the younger generation things they will certainly find interesting but may not have known.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: .3in; margin-top: 0in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: .3in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12.5pt;">The son
of Holocaust survivors, Hikind agrees with George Santayana’s saying that those
who don’t know history are destined to repeat it. “I’m delighted by the
opportunity to share our community’s accomplishments with this new generation,”
he says. “Our new website is informative, engaging and invites people to get
involved. We are presenting a view into the past, but we are clearly looking at
the future.”</span></div>

Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) has unveiled Brooklyn’s
much-anticipated security initiative—an expensive, state-of-the-art system of
surveillance cameras designed to protect residents of Borough Park and Midwood.
Assemblyman Hikind was joined this morning by elected officials and community
leaders as the first cameras were demonstrated live by SecureWatch24.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“The Leiby Kletzky Security Initiative utilizes the newest
advances in surveillance technology to safeguard community residents,” said
Assemblyman Hikind. “The pilot program places high-tech security cameras in
strategic places throughout our community allowing for a wide blanket of
surveillance.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“As I pointed out when we first secured the funding for this
initiative, our community is often a potential target for attacks. The new security-surveillance
system that we are now putting in place will not only decrease the chances of outside
attacks, but it will also enormously enhance law enforcement’s ability to solve
and prevent local crimes. If any person were to go missing, G-d forbid, we will
have <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">exponentially</i> increased the ability
to locate and recover that person. If there’s an assault on someone in our
community, we will have increased our chances of catching the criminal.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Some have questioned the need for these high-tech
surveillance cameras in the community,” said Senator Simcha Felder (D-Brooklyn)
who joined Hikind for the demonstration and ribbon-cutting event. “My response
to the naysayers is that we must assist law enforcement in doing everything
humanly possible to prevent terrorism and other crimes against New Yorkers. I
want to thank and commend Senate Republican Majority Coalition Leader Dean
Skelos and Assemblyman Dov Hikind for their leadership on this issue. I am
proud to be part of this initiative.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Providing safety to New York’s residents is a key concern
that all of us share, and when it comes to crime, security cameras are a
proven deterrent,” said Assemblywoman Helene Weinstein. “I am delighted that my
constituents will directly benefit from the presence of these new cameras. I
will keep working with Assemblyman Hikind to expand this crucial program and
deliver greater security and genuine peace of mind to residents throughout the
borough.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Working with the NYPD and community leaders, Assemblyman
Hikind’s office identified key locations throughout the Borough Park and
Midwood areas that would offer the broadest surveillance coverage. These
include commercial districts, schools and institutions, as well as residential
areas. The area is bounded by 60<sup>th</sup> Street to McDonald Avenue, 9th
Avenue to 20<sup>th</sup> Avenue in Borough Park, McDonald Avenue to Ocean
Avenue, and Foster Avenue to Avenue R in Midwood. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
80 units containing 4 (four) cameras each, for a total of
320 cameras, will work together to create a security blanket—a virtual eye that
can see what has occurred on the streets of the community in the event of a
crime. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“This is a historical moment for our community,” said
Assemblyman Hikind who thanked Senator Dean Skelos, majority leader of the New
York State Senate, for helping secure the funds for the security initiative.
“The achievement of this initiative demonstrates the importance of partnering
with our government,” said Hikind.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Assemblyman Hikind also thanked Agudath Israel, and in
particular both Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zweibel (who was on hand for the security
initiative unveiling), as well as Dovid Tannenbaum, for partnering with his
office. Assemblyman Hikind also thanked both the Flatbush and Boro Park Shomrim
for their work in helping secure the communities. Representing the groups were
Yanky Daskal, the head of the Boro Park Shomrim, and Bob Moskowitz, head of the
Flatbush Shomrim, as well as Naftali Rosenberg from Flatbush Shomrim.
Assemblyman Hikind also thanked JP Morgan-Chase, which was represented at the
event, for their role in advancing funding for the initiative; as well as SecureWatch24
and their President/Founder Desmond Smyth for their technical guidance and
expertise in creating a system and topography that would best serve the
community; <span class="st">Joseph </span><i>Palmieri,</i><span class="st">

NYPD, in particular Commander Mike Deddo of the 66th Precinct and Commander
Eric Rodriguez of the 70th Precinct.</span><br />

“My office spoke to local business owners as well as parents

heard from people at Yeshiva Ohr Yitzchok as well as Hasc and then took a look for
ourselves and agreed that it was terribly inconvenient and a potentially dangerous
situation. This change will ease the minds of many as congestion is reduced and
our streets are made safer.” </div>

Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) is shocked that so many
drivers are heading out onto the roads with windshields and roofs dangerously covered
in snow or ice… and even more so that they are getting away with it. Both, he
says, have to stop.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Snow or ice on a car’s windshield or rear window is a clear
obstruction to a driver’s visibility,” explains the Assemblyman. “The law is
very clear about this.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But it’s more than just observing a motor vehicle regulation,
explains Assemblyman Hikind—it’s about protecting people’s lives.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Frankly, I find it shocking that anyone at all would be
willing to risk their own life the way I’ve seen drivers doing so during this
recent storm,” Hikind observed. “I’ve witnessed people who were apparently in
such a rush that they only cleared off a small portion of their windows and
jumped in their cars to get going. Their visibility is clearly restricted. They
can’t see what they need to see. It’s dangerous!”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Further, a large chuck of ice can easily fly off of a moving
vehicle’s roof and break the windshield of a car traveling behind it. Or a
large quantity of snow sitting on a moving vehicle’s roof can fly off and
temporarily blind another driver traveling at a high speed.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“This is not just about the drivers or their passengers, it’s
about public safety,” said Assemblyman Hikind. “Drivers must take the extra
five minutes, or whatever is required, to do the right thing and make certain
that their trip will be a safe one for everyone concerned. And law enforcement
must make certain that drivers take these measures seriously.</div>

We had wonderful responses to our request from the Department of Transportation for thicker muni-meter receipts. In fact, Meir Birnhack, a community <i>askan </i>(activist) visited my office today after returning from a trip to Philadelphia with muni-meter receipts from that city that are also much thicker and more practical than the flimsy, problematic receipts in New York City. My sincere thanks to Meir for sharing these tickets with us. In turn, we are sharing them with the New York D.O.T.</div>

<br />
It is important that everyone is aware of the work
that is going on in Borough Park so such accidents can be avoided. Please warn
your children to be <i>extra</i> careful.<br />
<br />
We are looking into
how this accident was even <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">possible</i>. We

Are you tired of paying a muni-meter,
displaying your receipt and then coming back to find a ticket because your
ticket blew to the floor when you closed your door?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
Assemblyman Dov Hikind
(D-Brooklyn) is proposing a simple solution to the too-thin-receipts problem: <i>Thicker</i> receipts.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
After receiving numerous
complaints from constituents about their muni-meter receipts blowing to the
floor or blowing away, the Assemblyman contacted Polly Trottenberg, the newly
appointed Department of Transportation<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="14391290f7c8471a_1438d94ed26a8c93_1438d6b4499f415a__GoBack"></a> Commissioner, and
asked the D.O.T. to consider more substantial receipts. Thicker paper is utilized
in other countries such as Israel where muni-meters abound.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
“Our office has received calls
from a number of constituents who complain that they have received parking summonses
even after having properly purchased and displayed a muni-meter receipt on
their dashboard,” said Assemblyman Hikind. “Upon inspection, they discovered
that their receipts had either flipped over or had been blown to the floor.
This likely occurred when they closed their car door. The problem is even worse
during times of heavy wind.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
The problem, Assemblyman Hikind
explains, is the flimsiness of the actual receipts, which are printed on very
thin paper. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 22.5pt;">
“It is a shame to penalize people
who are attempting to follow the rules and regulations,” said Hikind. “The addition
of muni-meters has been helpful. They’ve added numerous potential parking
spaces in our community and in other neighborhoods. But there is always room
for improvement and improving this situation seems easy.”</div>

There are many examples of him exhibiting courageous leadership throughout his life, particularly during the Yom Kippur War in 1973. There's no doubt he lived a life dedicated to his people. Still, there remains a chapter in his legacy that left many Jews deeply hurt and pained, for having had to depart from even a sliver of our precious land. But the sum of his life's parts points to a leader whose raison d'etre was the security, preservation and advancement of the Jewish people.

driving down L between E 15 and E 16 when her car was pummeled by what she
thought was snowballs. Her rear window was smashed and her 4-year-old daughter
who was in the back seat was suddenly hysterical. The driver called 911 and
they took her name and number. Then, on
closer inspection, she realized it wasn’t a snowball—it was a rock that had
broken her window and engendered her child.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When I learned of the incident I called
the 70<sup>th</sup> Precinct to make certain this matter is being dealt with. We will continue to monitor this situation.<div class="MsoNormal">

Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) had the highest praise for
members of the New York City Fire Department and other first responders who
were on the scene this morning as a huge fire raged at 1171 Ocean Parkway in the
Midwood section of Brooklyn.</div>

The fire broke out several minutes before 9 a.m. and the
fire department responded immediately.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
“Our fire fighters are the very best there are,” said the
Assemblyman. “They risk <i>their</i> lives
to save the lives of others and they did so once again this morning. This was a
terrifying fire on a dangerously cold day. Thank G-d no lives were lost. Our
communities owe a large debt of gratitude to these brave individuals.”</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Deputy Chief Wayne Cartwright reported that there were eight
minor injuries (three fire fighters and five civilians). Fire marshals are
investigating the cause of the blaze.<br />
