CB 11 votes down school on 32nd Ave. 1
Urban planner Paul Graziano speaks out against the planned high school and urges residents to make their opposition to the plan known to Councilman Paul Vallone so he can tell his colleagues to vote against it.

After all but two Community Board 11 members on Monday voted to oppose the placement of a high school at the former site of the Bayside Jewish Center, Councilman Paul Vallone (D-Bayside) reversed his position on the plan and announced he will stand against it when it comes to a vote in the City Council.
“As a result of last night’s most recent Community Board 11 decision, we will stand in opposition to this site, despite the Community Board’s repeated requests for a specialized high school in the district for nearly a decade,” Vallone said in a written statement sent out on Tuesday.
