There was a meeting held at New Dorp High School in Staten Island, N.Y., last night. Local and federal officials were there to answer residents’ question about the recovery effort a month after Superstorm Sandy hit.
According to local news reports, the auditorium was filled to over-capacity. The residents who attended the meeting, to paraphrase Shakespeare, came not to praise officials, but to bury them.
There is a lot of anger and frustration among people here. Recovery centers are packing their bags and moving off as winter’s chill begins to settle over the neighborhoods hardest hit by Sandy.
