Thank you to everyone who attended our meeting last night!

We'd like to extend our appreciation to Detective Berish and Officer Gonzalez for taking the time to address residents and answer questions from the audience.

A special thank you to the MTA for coming to our community, presenting information on the proposed IBX line, and listening to concerns from residents regarding the project, including the proposed two stops in Middle Village. We appreciate their willingness to answer questions and take notes on the issues raised by the community.

Thank you also to Senator Addabbo for addressing residents' concerns regarding both the IBX project and the proposed battery energy storage facility near PS 128. If you haven't already done so, please visit the Senator's website and complete the IBX survey. Encourage your friends and neighbors to participate as well—it's important that our community's voice is heard.

A special thank you to Daniel Heredia of the Community Board 5 Land Use Committee for speaking with residents and highlighting the importance of community involvement. Daniel reminded everyone that staying informed, attending meetings, and making your voice heard are critical to ensuring our neighborhood's interests are represented throughout the decision-making process.

We also want to thank Ara CheKmayan for an informative and in-depth presentation on NineDot Energy's proposed battery energy storage facility. The presentation provided valuable information and helped residents better understand the proposal and its potential impact on our neighborhood.

As a community, we must continue to push for greater transparency and engagement from NineDot Energy. Residents deserve answers, open communication, and meaningful involvement in decisions that affect our neighborhood.

More details will be coming soon as we begin an email campaign directed at NineDot's board members, financial partners, and government stakeholders. Our goal is simple: to ensure NineDot comes to the table, engages with our community, and provides the transparency our residents deserve.

Stay tuned for updates and ways to get involved.

FINAL THANK YOU TO FATHER PETER AND OUR LADY OF HOPE FOR PROVIDING THE VENUE. - GOD BLESS

“Connecting the "9" Dots

NineDot Energy was founded in December 2021, making it a relatively new entrant in large-scale battery storage development in New York City. Despite its short history, the company is advancing an aggressive buildout strategy tied to multiple urban energy storage projects across the city.

Public information indicates financial and strategic links to The Carlyle Group, including investment involvement and overlapping leadership connections. Carlyle manages approximately $477 billion in assets, positioning it as a major institutional backer.

NineDot Energy projects are financed through a blended structure that may include private equity, state programs (such as NYSERDA incentives), federal tax credits, and project-level financing. For example, one Bronx project reportedly received about $1.2 million in NYSERDA support.

The company currently lists 4 operating sites, 3 under construction, and has referenced ambitions for up to 50 total projects.

A key open question remains the extent of publicly disclosed long-term financial safeguards, including whether decommissioning bonds or equivalent financial assurance mechanisms are consistently in place across sites.

In short: a young company, backed by major capital, scaling quickly across NYC—while some long-term risk and accountability details remain less clearly disclosed.

We’re currently seeing a pattern of one-on-one meetings and scripted statements, while engagement with civic groups and local public presentations remains notably absent from the process.

One of our members recently reported, with photos, that a homeless individual was sleeping on the corner of Furmanville Avenue and Dry Harbor Road in the business district. They contacted 311 and were informed that the Department of Homeless Services has been notified and will respond.

There have been several similar incidents reported at the park over the past few weekends. It appears we may be facing a challenging summer, with growing concerns about responsiveness and accountability. Many residents are beginning to question what the future holds for Middle Village—and the city as a whole.

At the same time, it’s important to recognize that the individual in this situation likely needs support. Access to safe shelter, along with expanded mental health services, should be a priority in future city budget discussions so that people can receive the help they need.

Our next meeting is scheduled for early June.

Service Hours Alert

We know it’s been a while since our last live meeting in February. Ongoing issues outside our control—like IBX, the Nine Dot battery facility, and recent public safety concerns—are still unfolding, so we’re planning to reconvene in early June.

In the meantime, we’re focusing on what we can do: building community and taking action locally. Join us for our first cleanup of the year with local elected officials Joseph Addabbo, Andrew Hevesi along with Dorie Optiz Figliola we restore the Vietnam Memorial ahead of Memorial Day.

More updates soon—stay tuned.

JOIN US TODAY AT 64-30 69TH PLACE, MIDDLE VILLAGE, NY 11379.

The proposed BESS lithium battery storage facility has raised serious community concerns. To date, NineDot Energy has not met with the public to address them.

Stand with your neighbors. More details to follow.

THE TIME IS NOW AS NINE DOT IS NOT WAITING AND HAS ALREADY FILED FOR BUILDING PERMITS

*** CALL TO ACTION ****

Protest on Thursday: “Protect Our Kids”
Aside from the tone-deaf placement of a lithium battery storage facility in the middle of a residential neighborhood, this site is surrounded by homes, schools, and local businesses.
Through civic engagement, we’ve connected with neighbors near 57–77 Rust Street in Maspeth. After visiting the location, myself, I noticed a persistent humming noise coming from the facility. This constant sound is a nuisance and raises concerns about the long-term impact on residents’ quality of life.
No family should have to live next to or across from an industrial energy storage facility that abuts their homes. The site is visually intrusive, and residents are understandably concerned about potential long-term effects related to noise, electromagnetic exposure, and vibration.
We are told that Nine Dot Energy has the legal right to use this property as approved. But what about the rights of homeowners, business owners, and students in the area?
• The school was not built next to an existing industrial plant.
• Homeowners did not purchase their properties knowing this was a possibility.
• Local businesses were established long before this facility was introduced.
The Right to Quiet Enjoyment
“Quiet enjoyment” generally means the right to:
• Live in your home without unreasonable interference
• Expect privacy
• Be free from excessive noise or disruption
• Use your property legally without intrusion
For homeowners, protections may come through:
• Nuisance law
• Local zoning and noise ordinances
• Environmental and land use regulations
Local attorneys are now reviewing the situation to help protect our community. We want to ensure that when decisions affect residents’ health, safety, and quality of life, there is accountability and proper oversight.
This is about balance. Clean energy matters — but so do neighborhoods, families, and children. Community voices deserve to be heard.
