City Councilwoman Joann Ariola (R-Ozone Park) recently called on area cops to ensure that a particularly stubborn Mister Softee operator, who has posted up in the middle of 157th Avenue at dismissal time for St. Helen Catholic Academy in Howard Beach, moved to a spot safer for students and parents.
“While parents, the crossing guards, the civic, and the NYPD have tried to reason with the operator of the Mr. Softee route, he refuses to be fair or care about the safety of our residents. We are asking that everyone call the Mr. Softee Corporate office at 856-939-4103 if you have a complaint about his behavior. We have been in touch with the director of the routes at corporate and will continue to follow up with them as well as monitor his behavior throughout the neighborhood,” the Howard Beach Lindenwood Civic Association posted on Facebook.
