Can you tell us where one or two of the back-up eruvs are?

“What is your problem? No one relies on back-ups anyway.”

For some of the people who live outside of the main Boro Park eruv, the back-up eruv is their main eruv..

Therefor, I want to know if the eruv they are using have lechis and kores(strings)and not just some body of water surrounding Brooklyn..

Can we eat of ther food that is brought in on Shabbos l’chatlia.?

Check it out for yourself,

“I do not need to. I know Rav Katz personally as the ultimate ??? ??? If there was a problem he would say so and loud & clear. Do you know why he resigned his position in Belz where was ????? ?? ???? ????”

No I do not.why did he resign?

The original subject is not if one may use the Boro Park erev or not.The problem is that for many years ,there are no signs telling people where the boundaries of the eruv are.There are people who carry food into shuls outside of the eruv .One can not rely on the back-up eruv,because it’s just a buba meisa and it does not exist!.Most Rabonim believe that if one does not hold from the eruv, that person should not eat any of the food that is carried in on Shabbos. I would venture to say that NO ONE should eat of the food that is brought into the shuls from outside of the eruv on Shabbos.

For the second time, does anyone know where the Boro Park Backup

Eruv is?
