URGENT! PLAYLAND NEEDS YOU! Dear Friend to Playland, you recently signed a petition on Change.org to “Keep Playland Public”. Thank you so much for your support of this beloved, treasured gem. Weds. April 20, 2016 at 6:30pm at the WestchesterCounty Office Building in White Plains, NY there will be what we expect to be THE ONLY Public Hearing regarding this issue. The BOL held two Public Hearings last Spring and basically almost no one showed up. The contract has changed drastically since then: We are now responsible for putting an enormous amount of money ($30+ Million) into the Park to convince Standard/United Parks to sign on the dotted line and they will keep over 90% of Park profits...and the terms have been changed from a 15-year deal to A 30-YEAR CONTRACT! We need to show the County Executive and BOL this time that we care about that Park and what is about to happen to it. PLEASE TRY TO ATTEND! Full info here: There is a strict THREE MINUTE LIMIT to your comments. We suggest you write your thoughts out in a brief, clear and concise format, and practice reading it out loud several times to make sure it flows smoothly and that you can make all your points within the three minute time frame. If you wish to speak plan on arriving by 6:00 pm to go through security downstairs (be sure to bring photo ID!) and then sign in to speak once you get up to the 8th Floor receptionist. The County Office Bldg. is located on the corner of Court St. & Martine Ave. in White Plains, right across the street from the Macy's entrance to the Galleria. The entrance door is actually ON COURT STREET. You can park in the Galleria lot, on the street or in a nearby municipal lot (all are metered parking). 800 Michaelian Office Bldg. (8th Floor) 148 Martine Avenue White Plains, NY 10601
