Jake Bono on Fox News Channel


Live television: Jake Bono of Bono Sawdust appears on Fox News Channel's "It's Your Land" series, June 13, 2010. The City of New York intends to forcibly evict the property owners and 250 businesses, including Bono Sawdust, from the Willets Point neighborhood, then give the 62 acres of property to an as-yet-unidentified private party that is preferred by the City. Bono Sawdust is a third-generation business that has owned property and operated successfully at Willets Point for more than 70 years, and is not interested in leaving. Bono is a member of Willets Point United Inc., a coalition of property owners who are opposed to the City's plan to forcibly acquire their properties.
