Dear Editor:

I usually do not boast about politicians, but this time I must.

On Friday, September 25, I met Joe Concannon in front of my home and talked with him for a few minutes. Joe also lives in Bellerose and is running for City Council.

He asked me about a tree that had fallen on 241st Street and wanted to know how long it was there. I told him it came down about a month or two ago and no one has been here to remove it.

He told me he that the situation was bad and that he wanted to do something about it. On Monday, September 28, the fallen tree was gone, thanks to Joe Concannon.

Joe, you got my vote!

Joe De Clemente
