SUMMARY:Policy Brief: City of Yes Initiatives
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, November 2 at 1:00 p.m for a Policy Brief on the City of Yes Zoning Text Amendments.   \nNew York City plans to modernize and update the city’s zoning regulations to support small businesses\, create affordable housing\, and promote sustainability as part of Mayor Eric Adams’ vision for a more inclusive\, equitable “City of Yes.” Matthew Waskiewicz\, Associate Planner\, NYC Department of City Planning will discuss the Economic Opportunity amendment; Nilus Klingel\, Senior Planner\, NYC Department of City Planning will share information on the Carbon Neutrality amendment; and John Mangin\, Housing Director\, NYC Department of City Planning will present on the Housing Opportunity amendment. \nSupporting small businesses. “City of Economic Opportunity” will allow small businesses to repurpose vacant spaces by removing outdated limitations that keep them from getting filled. This means reforming antiquated rules on where certain businesses can be located; simplifying government rules that contribute to keeping storefronts vacant; and lifting regulations that keep businesses from evolving and expanding. \nMaking our buildings greener. “City of Carbon Neutrality” will support citywide carbon reduction efforts. The technology and the resources are already here. Our job is to speed up installation\, make it easier to invest\, and show the world what a city of the future looks like. This means changing our zoning rules so that we are not hindering eco-friendly building retrofits\, the deployment of solar panels\, and much more. \nExpanding housing opportunities for everyone. “City of Housing Opportunity” will encourage the creation of more housing in neighborhoods across the city. Many factors contribute to our housing crisis\, but one of the biggest is a failure to produce enough new housing to keep up with growing demand. We want to change that by allowing additional housing types\, easing conversion rules\, and allowing owners of homes and small buildings to alter and update their own property\, whether they’re adding a family room or an apartment. \nPlease RSVP and submit your questions by 10:00 a.m. Tuesday\, November 1. You will receive a confirmation email from Zoom upon registration. We hope that you can attend! \nWatch the full discussion here.

SUMMARY:Power Breakfast with United States Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer
DESCRIPTION:ABNY is thrilled to welcome United States Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Tuesday\, November 22 at 8:30 a.m. at Cipriani Wall Street for a Power Breakfast. \nMajority Leader Schumer will discuss the latest updates from Washington D.C.\, including the historic funding and assistance he delivered to New Yorkers in the American Rescue Plan and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act which resulted in New York getting more money back from Washington than was sent in taxes for the first time in history. Majority Leader Schumer will also discuss the productive bipartisanship over the last few months in the Senate which saw passage of the Chips & Science Act\, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act\, and the the PACT Act to provide care and compensation for our veterans. \nWe hope you will join us for this important presentation. \n*Please note\, tables have ten (10) seats. \n**Members\, please contact Laura at lcolacurcio@abny.org for discounted tickets. \nWatch the full discussion here and view images from the event on the ABNY Flickr page here.
