BLURRED VISION: The slapdash paint job runs on Neptune Avenue from W. 33rd to W. 37th
streets, according to Treyger. Eric Faynberg
SQUIGGLY LINES
Neptune Avenue on time. Then they
couldn’t pave right since potholes
developed literally days after paving.
Now they can’t paint straight,”
Treyger said in his tweet . “This is an
embarrassment to the city and completely
unacceptable.”
Transportation Department reps
did not immediately respond to questions
this newspaper sent following
Treyger’s Nov. 29 allegations, but
the agency did respond to the pol on
Twitter a day after he criticized its
work, sharing its own tweet that argued
bad weather botched the paint
job, which the department claimed is
only temporary to begin with.
“These are temporary markings,
which can be affected by weather,”
the agency wrote in a Nov. 30 post .
“Permanent markings will be installed
within the next week.”
After the agency tweeted its reply
to Treyger, a spokeswoman replied
to this newspaper, explaining
that workers fi nished painting the
new double-yellow-line median —
and repaving the stretch of Neptune
Avenue it bisects — on Nov. 19, and
noting that the department always
paints temporary markings before
installing permanent ones.
FOOD TRUCKS
a separate permit for that location.
Interested food-truck operators
could submit applications to be the
lucky vendor through Nov. 30, and now
Parks Department bigwigs will review
the list of hopefuls before returning to
the community board early next year
with their decision, which will “take
the board’s concerns into consideration,”
the spokeswoman said.
The 10 board members who supported
the proposal, however, hope
the agency doesn’t put too much stock
in their colleagues’ majority no vote,
with one food-truck proponent arguing
the area is barren and in desperate
need of more dining options.
“As you walk around Asser Levy,
there are very few options for food,”
said Mario Caggiano. “You have to
walk very far to hit some of these
small businesses. And I also feel some
of the food trucks are small business
in themselves.”
Another panel member who voted
in favor of the food truck said such
vehicles should be available throughout
the neighborhood — especially in
the West End — because there aren’t
enough restaurants to serve Coney’s
growing population.
“There aren’t enough food choices
in Coney Island’s West End — if you
go anywhere past the train stations,
there aren’t many options, other than
Chinese and fried chicken,” said Orlando
Mendez. “The food trucks
should be allowed out there as long as
they’re not parked in front of a restaurant.”

And such temporary markings
can be affected by rain and cold temperatures,
according to the rep, who
then did not immediately respond to
follow-up inquiries about when the
work began, how exactly weather
could affect the markings, how the
squiggles would be removed, and
what company did the work.
Treyger, however, didn’t buy the
agency’s claims that the lines are
meant to be impermanent, arguing if
that is the case, then city transit offi
cials should know better than to do
such work ahead of a season known
for its inclement weather.
“I have not heard of temporary
markings, and even if they were doing
temporary markings, you’re telling
me they cannot have straight
lines as temporary markings?” the
pol said. “That is a laughable and
unacceptable excuse. If they felt the
weather was going to be a factor, then
why did they paint those lines now?”
The councilman also blasted those
Transportation Department offi cials
who signed off on the paint job, suggesting
they should more thoughtfully
review such projects before
rushing to complete the next one.
“This has been one error after another
error here on the part of DOT,”
Treyger said. “Does someone review
and oversee this work? How does any
supervisor say this is a good job?”
