owners, whether it be securing your business against crime, a meeting
with the Department of Sanitation or how to get a small business loan.



I have lived in the community for many years. I was responsibile for the street light on Brooklyn Avenue near Food Town. I am sickened and appaled at the conditions of the Baskin Robbins in Bed Stuy Restoration. The ice cream counters and displays are unclean. The ice cream is obviously melted and refrozen. The attitude of the young people are unbelieveable. I wanted to buy ice cream on Sat. 8/6/06 but the cashiers had no change for $20.00. I mentioned to them that you cannot serve your customers if you do not have change. One of them replied, "so we just wont serve you" and he went in the back and sat down". Is this how the new and improved bed stuy will be? The Dept of HEalth will be notified about the conditions of the Baskin Robins. SHAME ON YOU
