Say What You Want About Alicia Boyd - Yes, She Can Be Foul-Mouthed - But She’s One Tough Brooklynite, Taking on Developers and Elected Officials (in This Case Laurie Cumbo)

From The Brooklyn Paper (and in the Park Slope Courier):

 

Councilwoman Laurie Cumbo claimed to have brokered a “miracle” deal to add over 100 additional affordable housing units, but has failed to provide any formal documentation about that supposed deal...

 

...Alicia Boyd, who is representing herself in a suit against the city and developers. “It looks very bad if you have an elected official who made that promise on the record to the public... and then you find out that the affordable housing didn’t exist.”
