Sign Petition to #SaveNYC

During the past few weeks TheConeyIslandBlog.com has been following the Save NYC campaign, whose mission is to protect smalls businesses, like the ones here in Coney Island from landlord eviction. Follow the hashtag #SaveNYC.

A petition has been circulating to pass city legislation called the Small Business Jobs Survival Act which would grant business owners a 10 year lease, with equal negotiating power as the landlord for new terms. Also an end to the ever-changing yearly burden of landlords passing on their property tax expenses, as well as an end to rent-gouging and exorbitant rent increases.

This legislation may change some of the current developments in Coney Island as well as the rest of the city. More small businesses would be protected.

To rally the troops, NYC born LED music sensation Blazes, will be hosting the first of many concerts to spark awareness of the Small Business Jobs Survival Act. Some of the city’s most talented and recognizable names are planning to participate. A downtown music venue and date of the event will be announced sometime this week.
