Yanks, Bronx pols at odds over community funds

By Benjamin Kabak

For those among us interested in the ongoing battle between the Bronx and the Yankees over the promised community funds, the story heated up a bit over the weekend. Daily News columnist Juan Gonzalez reported that Yanks President Randy Levine faced some tough talk from members of the New York Assembly over promised constructions and community money that had yet to materialize. Today, the paper reports that the Yanks will begin to dole out the promised funds in April, more than 18 months behind schedule. When all is said and done, if the Bronx gets its park land and money, the borough pols won’t care when it landed in their coffers.
