"The passage of the NYCHA Real Property Public Review Act (S.04641/A.06964), which I carry with Assembly Member Keith Wright, by the New York State Assembly is a necessary step towards empowering NYCHA residents and the broader communities to which they belong. This legislation will ensure those who live in and around NYCHA developments have a voice in the authority's land use decisions through the same fair and transparent public review process adhered to by city agencies. NYCHA residents and their neighbors deserve no less. I hope that the Senate will follow suit and pass this important legislation."
