Really? 24/7 lockers at 15 locations will fight package thefts in NYC? Waste of my tax dollars!

LockerNYC program benefits one contract provider, not the citizens of the City, which already have hundreds of these lockers installed at their own expense. NYC DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez, you got to go! Why not change Bail Reform law, defining theft bail eligible?! You steal, you get jailed! Not possible under current Bail Reform law….

A parent at South Richmond Hill’s PS161 said her child’s middle school is zoned on the other side of Van Wyck at Jamaica. It would be closer and safer if she could place her in Hawtree Creek at Rockaway Boulevard or Elizabeth Blackwell on 101 Avenue. Why is there no middle school in Richmond Hill?…

Mayor Eric Adams declared State of Emergency October 2022 when asylum seekers broke 17,000

Mayor Adams asked for $1 billion in aid then. Unlike COVID-19, there is no updated reporting of migrant numbers. We don’t know how the City account for them, and how many are here.

Free naloxone, safer-sex kits, toiletries vending machines in NYC!

Really? My tax dollars are paying for this!!! Will the City track (using video camera preferably) those who use this stuff? Will it help reduce stigma and barriers to service? A few vending machines will cut overdose deaths!? Shouldn’t the City try to discourage and stop users from abusing themselves? Not helping them to continue?…
