WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT NEW YORK CITY COUNCIL CANDIDATE BRIAN L. GOTLIEB

Pamela Harris, President and Founder of Coney Island Generation Gap:
"Actions speak louder than words and the actions of Brian Gotlieb speak volumes. Rather than make empty promises, Brian actively looks for ways to bring our community together. He is an experienced fighter on behalf of those who live and work in our community and has shown himself to be remarkably adept at cutting through the red tape of government bureaucracy. As our Councilman, Brian Gotlieb will make sure the needs of our community will be addressed and not forgotten. That is why I am proud to support his candidacy for City Council."

Pastor Connis Mobley, United Community Baptist Church:
"Brian Gotlieb is someone that I trust and a man who leads by example. He is a tireless worker who wakes up each day thinking about how he can help make our community a better place. I have no doubt that Brian Gotlieb will be an outstanding Councilman because he is a tenacious fighter on issues that impact our community. From fighting to ensure that our schools are properly funded to making sure that the needs of all Coney Island residents are addressed in the upcoming development process, Brian Gotlieb has been and continues to be there for us."

Reverend Debbe Santiago, 2nd Vice Chair, Community Board 13:
"Brian Gotlieb is a man of his word and conviction. He is a forceful advocate on behalf of our community and someone that I have counted on to serve as the voice of those who are unable to speak for themselves. When one looks at his record for and on behalf of our community, there can be no doubt that Brian Gotlieb is the best qualified candidate to succeed Councilman Recchia as our representative in the City Council."

Ronald Seif, Past-President, Temple Beth Abraham:
"I have learned firsthand that in each community there are individuals, often unheralded, working to bring our goals to fruition. One such individual in our community is Brian Gotlieb. I have known Brian for close to ten years and I am proud to offer my endorsement of his candidacy for City Council. All who know Brian Gotlieb can attest to the fact that he is dedicated and highly motivated to improve the quality of life of all who live and work in our community."

Sheila Smalls, President, O’Dwyer Gardens Residents Association:
"I am proud to support Brian Gotlieb’s candidacy for City Council because he has a long and successful record of standing up and fighting for our community. Like the post office delivering our mail, we can count on Brian Gotlieb to fight for us rain or shine. As our Councilman, Brian will make sure that our community, and the people who live in it, are not left behind."
