By Ilija Sekulovski


1. Public school upgrades
Seven schools in the district will get tech upgrades worth $240,000
2. Dog Run
A dog run will be created at the currently vacant Lot C, located under the RFK bridge, totally $500,000.
3. Parking lot conversation
IS 126’s parking lot will be converted into a children’s playground, also costing $500,00.
The total for all three projects comes out to well over $1 million dollars – an extra $240,00. Councilmember Costa Constantinides said he will personally fund the remaining amount, allowing all three projects to be completed fully.
