Hirsch Should Stop Kiryas Joel Annexation Plans!

It is fair to say that Mayer Hirsch is the one who stands behind the annexation proposals (507 and 164 acres).    It is clear that in exchange for Governor Cuomo’s veto of two bills on July 8th that would have required local government’s oversight for annexation of land within their boundaries, he ‘donated’ $250,000 to the Governor’s campaign “WAR CHEST” on July 13th and 14th.

KJPE (Kiryas Joel Power Elite) Racketeering Activity

From United Monroe:

Yvette D’LuXe D’Void, this is a complex situation.

It’s the KJ leaders, who we refer to as the KJPE (Kiryas Joel Power Elite) who wield all of the control over their citizens.

This so-called government controls everything- the housing, who gets to pray and where, the yeshivas, it’s all connected.

All the Young Jews: In the Village of Kiryas Joel, New York, the Median Age Is 13

By Albert Samaha Wed., Nov. 12 2014 at 11:03 AM

Abandoned toys litter the village. Tricycles are toppled on lawns. Red wagons rest beneath mailboxes. Big Wheels are strewn across apartment-complex courtyards. Hundreds of toys are sprawled over these 691 acres, but there’s not a child in sight. It’s midmorning, and all the kids are in school.

They’re acting like a dictatorship!!!

It’s not about religion
Published Feb 20, 2014 at 2:28 pm (Updated Feb 20, 2014)

“What has Harley (Doles) promised KJ?” Kassoff said. “What did he receive in return for the bloc vote? In the one time that we were given the privilege of the floor at the last meeting, there was not a single answer to a single question posed. We spoke for over an hour, and the town board will not answer. They’re acting like a dictatorship. This was an outrageous election, we were completely disenfranchised.”

faction sent a backhoe to demolish part of the area in front of the
dissidents’ shul in October 2009. Dissidents prevented it that day,
but demolition resumed the following June.Times Herald-Record/TOM BUSHEY

Kiryas Joel annexation petition will be fought on all fronts

We counted 250 people inside the Senior Center and many were forced (once again) to stand in the cold outside due to Harley Doles’ refusal to accept the School District’s offer to utilize one of the auditorium’s for board meetings.

To boil down the latest on the annexation issue, there is a definite dispute going on as to who will be “lead agency”. Lead agency is designated by the DEC (Department of Environmental Conservation) when there is a dispute over which party should have lead agency status.

Kiryas Joel Petitions to take 507 Acres from Town of Monroe

***FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE***

(KIRYAS JOEL, NY)—Kiryas Joel Village is known by their corrupted leadership which is corrupt from top to bottom. There is no need to dig a lot to get familiar with the Kiryas Joel history. By doing a simple Google search you will find court proceedings and media stories about continuous election fraud, abuse of political power, government and tax funds and violence and corruption. The more you will search the more you will find.

Now Kiryas Joel wants to extend their borders, and annex from the Town of Monroe another 500 plus acres. The people who live in the Town of Monroe are terrified for their well-being, and the security of their future. They feel as if the grave has opened underneath them, and with good reason.
