New York City Mayor Eric Adams didn’t consult a small, quiet Staten Island neighborhood before dropping busloads of illegal immigrants off at the site of a former Catholic school, where the air is now filled with the smell of raw sewage, lawyers looking to shutter the site charged at a court hearing on Thursday.
“Anger is boiling over. The nuisance that the city created in this residential community is outrageous,” alleged Mark Fonte, a lawyer for Staten Island resident Scott Herkert. “The buses sometimes arrive in the middle of the night, and there is no notice when the migrants are coming, how many, or where they are going. There is absolutely no coordination by city hall with the local officials who have to deal with this problem.
