What are the New York City Mayoral Candidates' Climate Resilience Plans?


If he expects flooding, he rolls up the downstairs rugs and takes his valuables upstairs.
“That’s just life in Broad Channel,” he said. “If you want to live close to water, you just pay attention.”
The extra attention is worth it to Riepe, who serves as the Jamaica Bay guardian for the American Littoral Society, a marine conservation group. He loves to take his boat out on the water, surrounded by the marsh with the city skyline visible on clear days.
When he rebuilt his house after Superstorm Sandy, he put the electrical outlets four feet off the floor. If another storm hits and destroys his home, he’s resigned to go somewhere else a thought that lingers in the back of his mind. ....

Could Tusk be Andrew Yang's "agent of the city"?


Will Tusk be the next Capalino?
Andrew Yang’s two campaign managers, his press secretary, his policy director and multiple senior advisers don’t actually work for his New York City mayoral campaign. They’re employed by Tusk Strategies, a lobbying firm that’s regularly hired by clients to advocate for or against bills that are being considered by the City Council and the mayor. And the arrangement raises concerns about what kind of access this lobbying firm – and the private clients that hire Tusk – would have to the mayor if Yang were to win the election. 
“We believe that it is improper for the same firm to be both a campaign consultant, and then lobby the person that they helped to elect,” said Susan Lerner, executive director of good-government group Common Cause New York. Consultants build “a special relationship of trust” with the candidate, and Lerner added they’re increasingly cashing in on that relationship. ....

The Big Reuse site under the Queensboro Bridge will be forced to move over the next few months.
Audrey Carleton / Gothamist
One of the last community composting sites in New York City can be found under the Queensboro Bridge in Long Island City. Mounds of mulch piled five feet high sit next to stacks of green bins and construction materials. The piles of organic matter are divided into phases by their decomposition stage. Some are composed of banana peels, orange rinds, and egg shells, while others resemble something closer to soil. These mounds are tended to by volunteers for Big Reuse, a non-profit composting site responsible for converting over one million pounds of food scraps to nutrient-rich soil each year. ....

–Small businesses knew they got shortchanged by the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), the federal government’s Covid relief initiative. A new analysis supports that conclusion, showing that a little more than half of NYC micro-businesses (with 10 employees or less) received loans. On the Lower East Side, 47.7% of small businesses secured loans. The analysis shows that more affluent neighborhoods got a larger share of PPP loans. [The City]
–Second generation Chinese New Yorkers are stepping up to help devastated Chinatown businesses but there’s widespread agreement that the only thing that will save most local small businesses is a massive federal bailout. [WNYC-Gothamist] ....
