Community Divide Deepens Over Accounts That Homeowners
Are Being Harassed to Sell to Meet Orthodox Demands
Are Being Harassed to Sell to Meet Orthodox Demands
It's good news that the New York Department of State plans
to hold a hearing on Sept. 21 to probe whether Rockland homeowners are
being pressured to sell and get out. Accusations and denials have

growing ultra-Orthodox Jewish community.
State legislators have
called for the hearings — which could be the first step in establishing
state-enforced protections, like a zone where real estate agents can't
solicit sales. It's time to get the state's perspective on what's going
on in Rockland.
The public hearing takes place from 6 to 9 p.m. Sept. 21 at Rockland Community College's Cultural Arts Theater.
