Dear New Yorker:
During this year’s General Election, the fate of New York City’s neighborhoods depends on you!
On the ballot are Mayor Adams’ so-called housing Proposals 2, 3 and 4, written in deceptive language that hides their true effect: stripping away your voice in how our city grows.
Simply put, these proposals would take away your power to influence new development in your neighborhood, weakening our communities’ ability to get more affordable housing and benefits as part of increased development.
This will lead to:
LESS AFFORDABILITY:
Mayor Adams’ Proposals 2, 3 and 4 eliminate New Yorkers’ power to fight for more affordable housing in neighborhood development.
LESS INVESTMENT:
Mayor Adams’ Proposals 2, 3, and 4 weaken communities’ power, giving developers and the Mayor even more power to ignore our neighborhood needs.
MORE GENTRIFICATION:
Mayor Adams’ Proposals 2, 3, and 4 take away the public’s power, leaving our communities weaker to fight irresponsible development and gentrification.
Don’t be misled by the Mayor’s proposals. Learn more at whatsonmyballot.nyc.
Sincerely,
New York City Council
