if they on bike racks, parked outside in their patrol paths, no see harm to add that as their additional task

There's no rampant cases of expired registration/inspections stickers of cars in this city. Meter maids actually enforce and ticket for these events. Lic plates is another story and enforced by another group

Expired car inspection tickets are enforced pretty well & vigorously by meter maids.

>I think we need inspections tbh

Yup just like any vehicle atm. Need it regulated, registered, licensed, inspected and insured. Ebikes should be no exception

Gas stoves & appliances are heavily regulated as well. Every 2 yr inspections of gas lines, plus need permits for install. Need childproof covers and other regulations. Can't say the same for ebikes. It has minimal regulations & safety guards vs a gas stove

Just allow only city approved batteries for sale, make it come with serial marked and a visible approval sticker that must be display all times, bike and battery must be licensed, with x frequent inspections at city center. Would ppl fake the stickers sure. But if caught especially after a fire incident, massive penalties.

so would have cost a fortune to operate. meanwhile we could have cram a bunch of folks into jacob javits like we planned for during covid or other unused buildings in city/state

Well out door tents would have been terrible given that winter weather is approaching. Who ever living in them will have a unideal and miserable time.

prob didn't see the trend till now

FYI for those that goes to any of their NYC locations but do note other stores might have same issue. Wish they list the deli meat brand/supplier.

>But health investigators do not believe NetCost Market delis are the only source of the outbreak, as a specific source of it has yet to be confirmed and some who got sick did not shop at the grocery chain.

Did you not see the final approved map? it was still in our favor. Based on the results in NY...even if we got the map we wanted, we would have still lost those races. The down ballot crush was real. That's the reason why NY cause the Dems to lose the House but instead of blaming the Gov, we deflect to redistricting when the Gov deserves much blame for what happen. These are areas that Biden and past Dems carried and won in comfy margins. That margin was absent due to dislike of Gov.

If it was linking Jewish communities why tf it included chinatown? Many asians like me saw it and realize it was a attempt to crack and pack the asian votes. Hence why that proposed district did not fly with us. Last I check racial gerrymandering is illegal

He actually would have. based on his prior performance, he would have sway all the conservative Italian votes at least which turn against Dems this election.

Actually he is not wrong and we do need a Italian in next Gov election to sway back some votes to help all the down ballot dems. Maybe Chris is free to run? who knows

>would have led to 7 more Democratic seats.

Delusional. Dems would have still lost the seats in their version of the map based on the performance of election.

This was the proposed map dems wanted -https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/redistricting-2022-maps/new-york/democratic_proposal/

We couldn't hold onto D4 with a 10+D lean in final map and you think we can take SI even with a 7+D lean in proposed? Nonsense. Would argue we would of lost all the germander created districts upstate anyway

Fact is even the final version of the map was still favorable to Dems and they still blew it and more. We lost the House bc of NY and it wasn't redistricting fault.

Should do the redistricted map vs our house losses in NY, We lost areas we purposely redistrict to be in our favor.

Judges, DA, AG and sheriff (in other states) positions should never be elected. Make them career positions not political

They would if they can. The area is not zone for housing and they want to change it. Criteria to change zoning was to allow the affordable housing which they met criteria with proposed plan

Would you rather they build a truck parking lot? that don't require zoning change and unmet demand. They make a killing off all the idle trucks that park side of highway right now

More like to not accelerate the rate of gentrification. Gentrification is going to happen with or without building. The rate of gentrification will be slower with development vs none.

so what happen to all the old buses bought by BdB during pandemic when everyone said it was a stupid buy and waste of funds?

Requesting IRS transcripts via third party designee as part of the application process going to be more routine going forward due to liars.

These plots belong to folks long dead and no room to add any more bodies. Their next of kin prob long gone as well so nil ppl visiting these graves. Just turn it into parkland with a dedication memorial somewhere in the park

Cemeteries inside NYC is a misuse of land. Convert it to parks just like we done historically to old grave sites.

Just regulate them. Require license to operate, inspection every x, possibly require some form of insurance, etc...add as required.

The cost to make a basement legal is enormous in terms of physical and monetary requirements. As someone who ponder and look into the cost - its not worth it not to mention the ongoing liabilities of a basement units. It be cheaper if I raise the roof of my house and build another unit. If the city offered me money and allowed the exception to my zoning to build another floor and keep it rent regulated for 15 yrs. Then its worth considering and better for the renter than any legal basement unit ever be.
