Editor’s note: Last week we mistakenly reported the Bronx public hearing on the mayor’s proposed budget would be Feb. 1 (the original date). It was rescheduled for Thursday, Feb. 16. Details are below:
Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr. invites the public to attend The Bronx Borough Board Public Hearing on the mayor’s preliminary budget for fiscal year 2013, and the capital and service needs of the Bronx. The meeting will be held Wednesday, Feb. 16 from 10 a.m. to noon at 198 E. 161st St., in the third floor Litigation Room. Anyone interested in presenting testimony should email their name, title, organization, and telephone number to bmccray@bronxbp.nyc.gov to register in advance, or for more information, call (718) 590-3500.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students. As you navigate this website, please let us know if you discover any glitches or if you have any suggestions. We’d love to hear from you.
