Friends,
It’s Monday, March 21, 2022. Before we jump into the upcoming events, I wanted to highlight a few announcements that I thought you’d like to know about:
Wednesday, 4/6, at 6 pm, my office is hosting our monthly housing clinic with the Goddard Riverside Law Project and TakeRoot Justice. Register here for the presentation on “construction-as-harassment” and to get connected with a lawyer following the clinic.
The next hearing for the Council committee I chair, Oversight and Investigations, is taking place on 4/11 at 10 am, jointly with the Committee on Public Safety, regarding the NYPD Inspector General.
For a full list of Council committee hearings, I’m linking to the Legistar website, which posts upcoming hearings and agendas— but in reverse chronological order!
Free admission at the Frick is now being offered to families and individuals receiving food assistance, identified by showing a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card; and each individual/families can bring up to three guests.
The NYC DOT has announced the proposed locations of the Open Streets program in Council District 6. They are:
- West 103rd Street from Riverside Drive to Broadway.
- Columbus Avenue from West 68th Street to West 77th Street.
- West 74th Street from Columbus Avenue to Central Park West.
You have until April 17th to submit comments online here.
