Community Board 3 upheld the suspension of the LES Dwellers as a recognized block association. This refusal comes immediately after Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer criticized the Board for the suspension, although the Board did agree to set up a special committee to develop new policies for interacting with approved block associations. There seems to be a general loathing of the Dwellers militant tactics, including one board member who complained that "our local politics are quickly being reduced to a war." [Lo Down]
