00:01:23MAYOR MAMDANI: IT IS A PRIVILEGE TO BE HERE TODAY AT THE NEW YORK
00:01:27HOUSING COURT ALONGSIDE PARTNERS
00:01:29IN GOVERNMENT, CITY HALL LEADERS, AND THE DEDICATED LEGAL
00:01:33SERVICES PROVIDERS, TENANTS AND ADVOCATES WHO HAVE LONG DEVOTED
00:01:37THEMSELVES TO THE FIGHT FOR JUSTICE.
00:01:39I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE WE HAVE STATE SENATOR JULIA SALAZAR WITH US.
00:02:28DANGEROUS CONDITIONS AND CANNOT AFFORD TO DO SO.
00:02:32OLDER NEW YORKERS WHO HAVE TO WALK DOWN 12 FLIGHTS OF STAIRS
00:02:35BECAUSE THE ELEVATOR IN THEIR APARTMENT BUILDING HAS SAT OUT
00:02:39OF SERVICE FOR MONTHS. PARENTS OF FEAR FOR THEIR CHILDREN'S HEALTH BECAUSE THERE
00:02:42IS LEAD PAINT IN THE LIVING ROOM , BLACK MOLD IN THE BATHROOM,
00:02:47AND COCKROACHES CRAWLING IN THROUGH THE FLOORBOARDS.
00:02:50FAMILIES FORCED INTO TEMPORARY LIVING SITUATIONS BECAUSE THEIR
00:02:53HOME HAS BEEN DAMAGED BY A FIRE
00:02:56OR FLOODWATERS AND THE LANDLORD REFUSES TO MAKE THE NECESSARY
00:02:59REPAIRS AND YET BECAUSE OF THE VOLUME OF CASES IN NEW YORK CITY
00:03:03HOUSING COURT, PEOPLE LIVING IN THE WORST CONDITIONS REGULARLY
00:03:07WAIT WEEKS IF NOT MONTHS FOR A CASE TO BE HEARD, FOR A DECISION
00:03:11TO COME, FOR CRITICAL REPAIRS TO BE COMPLETED, FOR THEIR
00:03:15SITUATION TO IMPROVE. TODAY, WE TAKE A CRITICAL STEP
00:03:19TOWARD ENDING IT. I'M PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT THE
00:03:23UNIFIED COURT SYSTEM WILL NOW FAST-TRACK EMERGENCY HOUSING
00:03:26COURT CASES WHERE THE HEALTH,
00:03:29SAFETY OF NEW YORKERS IS AT RISK.
00:03:33[APPLAUSE]
00:03:47IT IS A CORE PART OF OUR FIX THE CITY CAMPAIGN.
00:03:53THE HONORARY JUDGE ALI WILL
00:04:00EXPEDITE EMERGENCY CASES IMMEDIATELY.
00:04:03IT WILL ACCELERATE THE CASES THAT ARE MOST EGREGIOUS AND COMPLEX.
00:04:07CASES WHERE AT LEAST ONE THIRD
00:04:08OF UNITS IN THE BUILDING, WHERE
00:04:13FAMILIES HAVE BEEN FORCED FROM THEIR HOMES, CASES WHERE AT
00:04:15LEAST ONE THIRD OF THE UNITS
00:04:19HAVE AN IMMEDIATELY HAZARDOUS VIOLATION FOR ESSENTIAL SERVICES
00:04:21LIKE ELECTIVE HEAT, HOT WATER OR GAS.
00:04:25CASES WERE ELEVATORS IN A BUILDING ARE OUT OF SERVICE AND
00:04:27DOCUMENTED AS SUCH BY AN OPEN DOD CLASS ONE VIOLATION ISSUED
00:04:31WITHIN THE PAST YEAR AND SEVENA
00:04:35CASES -- 7A CASES WHERE THE CITY
00:04:40OR TENANTS THEMSELVES ASK THE
00:04:41COURT TO APPOINT NEW MANAGEMENT
00:04:46AND IN THESE CASES JUDGES WILL REQUIRE PARTIES TO RETURN TO
00:04:50COURT WITHIN FIVE DAYS AFTER SERVICE IS COMPLETED. [APPLAUSE]
00:05:00THIS IS THE KIND OF CHANGE
00:05:02TENANTS HAVE LONG CALLED FOR AND THE KIND OF CHANGE TENANTS DESERVE.
00:05:08CITY HALL IS FIGHTING FOR THE
00:05:10NEARLY 70% OF NEW YORKERS WHO DO NOT OWN THEIR HOMES.
00:05:17WE APPOINTED SEAL WEAVER TO LEAD
00:05:20THE MAYOR'S OFFICE TO PROTECT TENANTS. [APPLAUSE]
00:05:25WE HAVE HELD RENTAL RIPOFF HEARINGS ACROSS THE FIVE
00:05:28BOROUGHS AND RELEASED NEW YORK CITY'S FIRST-EVER RENTAL RIPOFF
00:05:32REPORT AND ARE REVAMPING
00:05:36INTERAGENCY REPORTING.
00:05:42EACH OF THESE REFORMS REFLECT THE ALL-ENCOMPASSING APPROACH TO
00:05:45SOLVING THE HOUSING CRISIS INCLUDING A $22 BILLION
00:05:49INVESTMENT IN IMPROVING PUBLIC HOUSING, BUILDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND PRESERVING THE
00:05:53AFFORDABLE HOMES WE HAVE. MAYOR FIORELLO LAGUARDIA ONCE
00:05:57SAID THE FUNCTION OF GOVERNMENT
00:06:03WAS TO DELIVER JUSTICE ON THE BROADER SCALE, JUSTICE THAT
00:06:06GIVES EVERYONE A CHANCE FOR THE BEAUTY AND BETTER THINGS OF
00:06:10LIFE. HAVING A HOME WITH HEAT AND
00:06:13WATER, WITHOUT PESTS AND MOLD, A
00:06:14HOME YOU CAN RAISE A FAMILY AND, THAT IS JUSTICE IN THE BROADER
00:06:19SCALE THAT MAKES BETTER THINGS
00:06:22POSSIBLE IN THE LIFE OF EVERY NEW YORKER AND THAT IS WHAT WE ARE HERE TO DELIVER TODAY. THANK YOU.
00:06:26[APPLAUSE]
00:06:30AND NOW I WILL PASS IT OVER TO
00:06:35RMC FOR THIS MORNING, COMMISSIONER DANA LEAVY. [APPLAUSE]
00:06:41>> THANK YOU SO MUCH, MAYOR.
00:06:45SO EARLY IN MY TIME AT HPD I MET
00:06:48WITH A SMALL GROUP OF LEGAL
00:06:50ADVOCATES AND ASKED WHAT THEY
00:06:53SAW AS THE BIGGEST BARRIER TO HOLDING THE CITY'S WORST
00:06:56LANDLORDS ACCOUNTABLE AND THE
00:06:59ANSWER WAS PRETTY SIMPLE, THEY SAID IT WAS TIME.
00:07:03IN THE MOST NEGLECTED BUILDINGS
00:07:06WITH VACATE ORDERS OR FAMILIES
00:07:08DOUBLING UP OR MOVE TO SHELTERS
00:07:10OR 20 STORY BUILDINGS WHERE
00:07:15TENANTS BECOME HOSTAGES IN THEIR OWN HOME WITHOUT ELEVATORS,
00:07:18MONTHS CAN TURN INTO YEARS AND RESIDENTS GIVE UP ON REALIZING
00:07:22THE HOUSING JUST AS THEY ARE ENTITLED TO.
00:07:25THANKS TO THE DIRECTIVE ISSUED, THOSE DAYS ARE OVER.
00:07:33THIS INITIATIVE CREATES A CRITICAL PATH TO DELIVERING ON
00:07:36OUR PROMISE TO FIX THE CITY BY GIVING HPD AND LEGAL SERVICE
00:07:40PROVIDERS A CLEAR AND LIMITED
00:07:44TIMELINE TO MOVE THE MOST EXTREME ENFORCEMENT CASES
00:07:47THROUGH THE NEW YORK CITY COURT SYSTEM WITH THE EXPEDIENCY ON
00:07:50THE URGENCY THEY DESERVE.
00:07:52I WANT TO EXTEND SINCERE THANKS
00:07:54TO THE LEADERSHIP AT THE OFFICE OF THE COURT ADMINISTRATION
00:08:00INCLUDING THE CHIEF
00:08:02ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE, THE CHIEF
00:08:04CLERK JUDGE, THE DEPUTY ADMINISTRATOR JUDGE SILVERA,
00:08:07JUDGE STOLER, AND ASSISTANT
00:08:12DEPUTY COUNSEL KENTNER FOR THEIR
00:08:17COOPERATION. [APPLAUSE]
00:08:19AND OF COURSE TO MY COLLEAGUE,
00:08:23THE COMMISSIONER AT THE NEW YORK
00:08:26DEPARTMENT OF BUILDINGS AND DIRECTOR WEAVER AT THE MAYOR'S
00:08:28OFFICE TO PROTECT TENANTS FOR THEIR PARTNERSHIP IN PUSHING
00:08:33FORWARD THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INITIATIVE.
00:08:35AND NOW IT IS MY PLEASURE TO
00:08:37WELCOME ANOTHER HOUSING CHAMPION
00:08:41, THE HOUSING CHAIR FOR THE NEW
00:08:42YORK STATE ASSEMBLY, ASSEMBLYWOMAN LINDA ROSENTHAL.
00:08:47[APPLAUSE]
00:08:48>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
00:08:51THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS A DREAM COME TRUE.
00:08:58AND I THANK EVERYONE INVOLVED. YOU WANT TO MAKE MY OFFICE HAVE
00:09:01LESS WORK AND HERE WE ARE.
00:09:04WE ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE TO KEEP POUNDING ON DOORS.
00:09:08WE ARE NOT GOING TO HAVE TO KEEP
00:09:11WRITING ANGRY LETTERS BECAUSE THE CITY HAS COMMITTED TO DOING
00:09:16THE WORK NEEDED TO PROTECT
00:09:18TENANTS IN NEGLECTED BUILDINGS. BUILDINGS WHERE TENANTS ARE
00:09:22HARASSED BY LACK OF MAINTENANCE
00:09:27AND IN RESPONSE TO DANGEROUS CONDITIONS.
00:09:32SO I APPLAUD EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS, I THINK THE MAYOR AND THE COMMISSIONERS AND EVERYONE
00:09:36INVOLVED BECAUSE THIS WILL TRULY
00:09:42MEET -- MEAN A SAFER LIFE FOR
00:09:50EVERYONE. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
00:09:56I WANT TO INTRODUCE A FIERCE ADVOCATE FOR TENANTS. I WANT TO MAKE SURE I GET IT RIGHT.
00:10:02THE CHIEF ATTORNEY OF THE CIVIL PRACTICE AT THE LEGAL AID SOCIETY.
00:10:11>> WHAT A GLORIOUS MORNING TO BE
00:10:18HERE WITH THE MAYOR AND BE HERE
00:10:20WITH COMMISSIONER WITH THIS WITH
00:10:25THE MAYOR, DIRECTOR WEAVER, JACK
00:10:29STOLER.
00:10:35AT THE LEGAL AID SOCIETY WE SEE FIRSTHAND EVERYDAY WHAT HAPPENS
00:10:39WHEN A FAMILY IS FORCED FROM THEIR HOME.
00:10:49FOR TOO MANY TENANTS, TEMPORARY
00:10:53DISPLACEMENT CAN STRETCH IN TWO MONTHS OR EVEN YEARS AND THOSE
00:10:56DELAYS HAVE REAL CONSEQUENCES, CHILDREN HAVE A HARD TIME
00:10:58TRAVELING TO THEIR SCHOOLS,
00:11:01PARENTS STRUGGLE WITH TRYING TO MAINTAIN OR GET TO WORK.
00:11:05SENIORS AND PEOPLE LIVING WITH DISABILITIES OFTENTIMES LOSE
00:11:07THEIR SUPPORTS AND FAMILIES ARE
00:11:10SEPARATED FROM THEIR PROPERTY, THEIR CLOTHES, THEIR FRIENDS,
00:11:14THEIR NEIGHBORS, THEIR HOUSES OF WORSHIP.
00:11:18THEIR COMMUNITIES THAT THEY CALL HOME, THEIR STABILITY.
00:11:22FOR YEARS THE LEGAL AID SOCIETY
00:11:24HAS RAISED CONCERNS ABOUT DELAYS IN PROCEEDINGS.
00:11:29WE HAVE SEEN HOW PROCEDURAL DELAYS CAN PREVENT TENANTS FROM
00:11:33GETTING THE REPAIRS THEY NEED AND LEAVE FAMILIES STUCK IN
00:11:37TEMPORARY HOUSING THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN. THAT IS WHY THIS NEW POLICY MATTERS.
00:11:42BY CRATING A FASTER PATHWAY THE CITY AND THE COURTS ARE RECOGNIZING SOMETHING
00:11:46FUNDAMENTAL.
00:11:47WHEN A NEW YORKER IS DISPLACED,
00:11:51GETTING INTO THAT HOME AGAIN IS OF THE UTMOST PRIORITY.
00:11:56TEMPORARY RELOCATION SHOULD NOT MEAN PERMANENT DISPLACEMENT.
00:12:01WE ARE PROUD TO WORK WITH HPD TO DEVELOP THIS POLICY AND WE
00:12:04APPRECIATE THE COMMITMENT TO
00:12:06ADDRESSING A PROBLEM THAT HAS
00:12:11BEEN A HARDSHIP FOR ALL NEW YORKERS.
00:12:18IT IS ABOUT FAMILIES HAVING
00:12:22SOMETHING THAT IS INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO REPLACE AND THAT IS STABILITY. WHEN A NEW YORKER IS FORCED OUT
00:12:26OF THEIR HOME, THEY SHOULD BE
00:12:29ABLE TO GET BACK AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.
00:12:33WE LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING WORK WITH THE CITY AND OUR
00:12:36PARTNERS. THANK YOU TO SO MANY OF OUR PARTNERS. [APPLAUSE]
00:12:41TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS POLICY DELIVERS ON THAT PROMISE AND
00:12:45THAT NO TENANT IS LEFT BEHIND
00:12:50BECAUSE OF UNNECESSARY PROCEDURAL DELAYS.
00:12:53NO TEMPORARY VACATE ORDER OR
00:12:56RELOCATION SHOULD MEAN PERMANENT DISPLACEMENT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. [APPLAUSE]
00:13:01>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
00:13:05TO EVERYBODY AT ALL THE LEGAL SERVICE PROVIDERS.
00:13:08FINALLY I WOULD LIKE TO WELCOME
00:13:10SOMEONE WHO GOT HER START AS A
00:13:12TENANT ORGANIZER FIGHTING FOR
00:13:14EXACTLY THESE ISSUES, PLEASE
00:13:17WELCOME STATE SENATOR JULIA SALAZAR.
00:13:19>> THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.
00:13:23EVERY SINGLE DAY IN MY DISTRICT
00:13:27IN BROOKLYN AND QUEENS, WE HEAR FROM CONSTITUENTS, NEIGHBORS,
00:13:32ABOUT THE HORRIBLE CONDITIONS
00:13:33THAT MANY OF THEM AND THEIR
00:13:36FAMILIES ARE FACING AND IT IS UNJUST.
00:13:43WHETHER THEY ARE JUST BEGINNING
00:13:45TO FACE THE STRUGGLES FOR THEY
00:13:48HAVE HAD TO FACE THIS FOR YEARS
00:13:50DUE TO THE FAILURES OF THIS
00:13:53SYSTEM, IT IS UNJUST AND I
00:13:59APPLAUD THE MAYOR AND THE OFFICE
00:14:00OF COURT ADMINISTRATION FOR
00:14:04RECOGNIZING THAT IT DOESN'T NEED
00:14:05TO BE THIS WAY AND NOT ONLY THAT BUT TAKING ACTION TODAY TO
00:14:09CHANGE IT. IT IS PERSONAL FOR ME.
00:14:15IN ADDITION TO REPRESENTING A
00:14:16DISTRICT THAT IS 83% RENTERS, IT
00:14:20IS A STORY I LOVED MYSELF
00:14:21SEVERAL YEARS AGO WHEN I LIVED
00:14:24UPTOWN AND A BUILDING WITH ATROCIOUS CONDITIONS SO MUCH SO
00:14:28THAT IT LED MY NEIGHBORS AND I
00:14:32TO PURSUE JUSTICE IN HOUSING COURT.
00:14:37I KNOW THIS INTIMATELY, BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SO MANY OF OUR
00:14:41NEIGHBORS, SO MANY NEW YORKERS AND FAMILIES CONTINUE TO LIVE
00:14:44EVERY SINGLE DAY, SO I THINK THE
00:14:48MAYOR AND PARTNERS IN GOVERNMENT
00:14:52, EVERYONE WHO IS COMING TOGETHER NOT ONLY TO TAKE THIS
00:14:55ACTION TODAY BUT TO THE
00:14:58PRACTITIONERS WHO WILL MAKE SURE
00:15:00THAT THIS IS IMPLEMENTED AND
00:15:03THAT WE SEE CHANGE AND JUSTICE
00:15:06FOR TENANTS IN HOUSING COURT IN NEW YORK CITY. THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE]
00:15:13>> ALRIGHT, WITHOUT WE WILL
00:15:16START WITH ON-TOPIC QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS OF THE MEDIA. ON TOPIC QUESTIONS.
00:15:21RIGHT THERE. >> THANK YOU.
00:15:24HI, MAYOR MAYOR MAMDANI:.
00:15:29HOW IS IT GOING? >> DO YOU HAVE A SENSE OF THE VOLUME OF CASES THAT WILL BE
00:15:33ELIGIBLE AND TO WHAT EXTENT IS
00:15:38THIS CHANGE NECESSARY FOR THE PROGRAM IN FIX THE CITY.
00:15:43WAS IT POSSIBLE WITHOUT THIS
00:15:47CHANGE, TO WHAT EXTENT DID THE PACE RELY ON THAT CHANGE.
00:15:54WE DO KNOW THAT THESE TYPES OF
00:15:57CASES ARE THE ONES THAT TEND TO BE THE MOST COMPLICATED TO
00:16:01RESOLVE.
00:16:09IT NOT ONLY MEANS CONSEQUENCES FOR THOSE NEW YORKERS BRINGING
00:16:12CASES TO THE COURT BUT ALSO TO
00:16:17THOSE IN THE HOUSING SYSTEM.
00:16:23WE WILL HAVE COMMISSIONER DENA LEE VICO.
00:16:25>> THIS IS A TOOL HPD HAS HAD
00:16:29FOR MANY YEARS BUT ONE OF THE
00:16:33CHALLENGES IN THESE DIFFICULT
00:16:35CASES IS THE TIME IT TAKES TO
00:16:37MOVE SERIOUS DELINQUENT OWNER IN
00:16:39ORDER TO GET MANAGEMENT AND
00:16:47ULTIMATELY OF THE CITY NEEDS TO COME IN AND REPAIR THEM, THIS
00:16:50WILL BE A HUGE TOOL WE WILL LAYER WITH OTHER TOOLS TO REALLY
00:16:53PURSUE THOSE LANDLORDS WHO ARE
00:16:57WILLFULLY NEGLIGENT IN MANAGING THEIR BUILDINGS.
00:17:00>> WE WILL GO TO PATRICK.
00:17:06>> I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT ONE
00:17:09OF THE TYPES OF LEGAL ACTIONS,
00:17:10HP ACTION, IT IS A TOOL USED BY
00:17:15SOME RESIDENTS TO COMPEL REPAIRS
00:17:23I WONDER IF THIS WILL BE USED BY
00:17:28RESIDENTS AND IS THIS NOT ONLY ABOUT KEEPING PRIVATE LANDLORDS
00:17:33ACCOUNTABLE AND FORCING THEM TO
00:17:37RESPOND TO A LARGE BACKLOG OF NEEDS?
00:17:39MAYOR MAMDANI: I WANT TO LAY A
00:17:42VERY CLEARLY THAT IT IS
00:17:47DELIVERING FOR HOUSING RESIDENTS WHO HAVE BEEN OVERLOOKED AND
00:17:50LEFT BEHIND BY GOVERNMENT POLICY
00:17:55AND ONE OF THE KEY WAYS WE HAVE SOUGHT TO DO THAT IS TO THE ALLOCATION OF A
00:17:58MULTIBILLION-DOLLAR HOUSING PLAN FOR PUBLIC HOUSING AND THEN
00:18:01LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL WAYS TO
00:18:06MAKE TARGETED INVESTMENTS TO
00:18:10TRANSFORM A HOUSING DEVELOPMENT. I WILL PASS IT OVER TO OUR DEPUTY MAYOR.
00:18:18>> AS WE EVALUATE THE ACTIONS,
00:18:25IT WILL BE INCLUDED IN THAT. >> SOME MORE ON TOPIC.
00:18:29GIVE US A MOMENT TO GET YOU THE MICROPHONE. THANKS.
00:18:32>> HOW'S IT GOING, MR. MAYOR?
00:18:37MAYOR MAMDANI: PRETTY GOOD.
00:18:38>> BY SOME ESTIMATES THERE ARE
00:18:43ONLY TWO DOZEN ACTIVE ADMINISTRATOR SHIPS.
00:18:45IF THINGS SPEED UP AND THE PLAN
00:18:48IS TO HAVE MORE TRANSFERS OF
00:18:50MANAGEMENT HAPPEN ARE THERE
00:18:53ALREADY ORGANIZATIONS FOR-PROFIT, NOT-FOR-PROFIT LINED
00:18:57UP TO TAKE ON THAT ROLE?
00:19:02>> IT IS SOME 78 ADMINISTRATORS
00:19:07RIGHT NOW SO WE ARE NOT LIMITED
00:19:14TO A SPECIFIC LIST.
00:19:19SO WE CAN MEET THE DEMAND.
00:19:27THERE IS A BILL IN THE STATE SENATE THAT WOULD INTRODUCE
00:19:29ANOTHER HOUSING COURT PART FOUR
00:19:33BUILDINGS WITH SUB 10 UNIT BUILDINGS AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
00:19:38WHAT IS YOUR STANCE ON THAT BILL
00:19:42AND IS ANYTHING FEED INTO THAT
00:19:46PUSH FOR MORE EFFICIENCY IN THAT PROCESS.
00:19:50>> DO YOU HAVE THE BILL NUMBER?
00:19:52>> I WILL GET IT FOR YOU.
00:19:54>> TIME FOR A FEW MORE ON TOPIC.
00:19:59>> HI, MR. MAYOR.
00:20:03>> I WAS WONDERING ABOUT HOW YOU
00:20:07COULD DIFFERENTIATE A TRULY
00:20:09NEGLIGENT LANDLORD FROM ONE WHO
00:20:13SAID THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE BOILER OR ELEVATORS
00:20:17BECAUSE COSTS ARE OUTPACING REVENUE?
00:20:19MAYOR MAMDANI: WHAT WE ARE
00:20:22TALKING ABOUT TODAY IS SOME OF THE MOST SEVERE CASES.
00:20:26WE ARE TALKING ABOUT CASES WHERE
00:20:28A THIRD OF THE BUILDING IS FACING SOME KIND OF A SERIOUS
00:20:32VIOLATION, CASES WHERE WE HAVE
00:20:33ELEVATORS BROKEN DOWN AND WHEN
00:20:37IT COMES TO THE LAW, EVERYONE HAS TO FOLLOW IT.
00:20:42FOR FAR TOO LONG THAT HAS
00:20:44SOMEHOW NOT BEEN UNDERSTOOD WHEN IT COMES TO HOUSING IN THE CITY.
00:20:49IF THE LANDLORD IS NOT ABLE TO FOLLOW THE LAW, THEY SHOULD NOT BE A LANDLORD OF THAT PROPERTY.
00:21:02AT ONE OF THE RENTAL RIPOFF HEARINGS I SAT ACROSS FROM A
00:21:05TENANT WHO SHOWED ME A VIDEO OF ONE OF HER NEIGHBORS HAVE TO
00:21:10CARRY HER NEIGHBOR UP THE STAIRS.
00:21:15YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT SENIORS WHO LIVE ON THE 10TH FLOOR FOR BUILDING, HOW ARE THEY SUPPOSED
00:21:19TO GET UP OR DOWN FROM THERE AND THESE ARE THINGS THAT DO NOT
00:21:23EXIST IN ISOLATION. EVERY SO OFTEN I'M STANDING IN
00:21:26FRONT OF THE PRESS CORPS AND I'M
00:21:30TALKING ABOUT A HEAT EMERGENCY.
00:21:36WE ARE TRYING TO REACH NEW YORKERS.
00:21:41WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THESE LAWS
00:21:45ARE FILED. -- FOLLOWED.
00:21:47>> ANYMORE ON TOPIC QUESTIONS?
00:21:52THE GENTLEMAN IN THE BACK? WE WILL JUST WAIT.
00:21:59>> MAX WITH AM NEW YORK.
00:22:02MAYOR MAMDANI: HOW WAS IT GOING, MAX?
00:22:05>> I WANTED TO ASK ABOUT
00:22:08ENFORCEMENT, WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THESE CASES ARE NOT BACK IN THE
00:22:13COURT. WHAT KIND OF CONVERSATIONS HAVE
00:22:16YOU HAD ABOUT HOW TO GIVE
00:22:18GUIDANCE TO THEIR JUDGES ON THESE NEW RULES?
00:22:26MAYOR MAMDANI: I FIRST WANT TO THANK AND ACKNOWLEDGE OCA AND IT IS WORTH GIVING A ROUND OF
00:22:31APPLAUSE. [APPLAUSE]
00:22:35WE KNOW THAT THIS IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO.
00:22:39THERE IS STILL A LOT OF WORK TO FOLLOW THROUGH ON WET AND THAT
00:22:43IS WHAT OCA AND SO MANY OTHERS IN THIS ROOM ARE MAKING POSSIBLE.
00:22:46I WILL PASS IT OVER TO SPEAK ADDITIONALLY ON THAT QUESTION.
00:22:51>> JUST TO BE VERY CLEAR, WHEN
00:22:54WE BROUGHT THIS IDEA FORWARD,
00:22:56RECOGNIZING WHEN WE HAD CASES LIKE YOU SEE ON THE EASELS THAT
00:23:00HAVE BEEN DELINQUENT FOR MONTHS
00:23:03AND MONTHS AND MONTHS AND TALKING TO ALL OF THE LEGAL AID
00:23:08ATTORNEYS WHO LITIGATE THESE
00:23:12CASES, IT WAS CLEAR WE NEEDED TO
00:23:13SPEED THIS UP IN ORDER TO NOT
00:23:17EXTENUATING HOW LONG TENANTS ARE SUFFERING.
00:23:20TO THE EARLIER QUESTION, WE GIVE
00:23:23A NOTICE OF VIOLATION, OUR DOORS ARE OPEN.
00:23:27THEY CERTAINLY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT.
00:23:33THESE LANDLORDS HAVE BEEN ISSUED VIOLATIONS AND JUST CONTINUALLY
00:23:36REFUSED TO COMPLY WITH THE LAW,
00:23:38WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL THAT THE OFFICE OF COURT ADMINISTRATION
00:23:42ACKNOWLEDGES HOW SERIOUS AN
00:23:43ISSUE THIS IS AND HAS
00:23:46ESTABLISHED A VERY CLEAR TIMELINE SO TENANTS WILL NOT HAVE TO WAIT FOR JUSTICE
00:23:50INDEFINITELY. MAYOR MAMDANI: JUST BEFORE WE
00:23:54MOVE OVER I WANT TO INTRODUCE STATE SENATOR TO SHARE SOME THOUGHTS ON THIS.
00:23:58[APPLAUSE]
00:23:58>> THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR, I HAD
00:24:04TO EARN MY SPOT IN THE PHOTO WHILE P OR.
00:24:07I HAD A SUBWAY MISHAP BUT I
00:24:09REALLY DO WANT TO BE HERE
00:24:11BECAUSE WE HAVE SPENT A GREAT
00:24:15DEAL OF TIME TRYING TO ADDRESS
00:24:21THESE RENT LAWS AND THE LAWS THAT PROTECT TENANTS. THANK YOU.
00:24:27THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] WE HAVE ADDED GOOD CAUSE
00:24:31EVICTION TOOLS, WE HAVE INVESTED
00:24:35ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF CAPITAL BOTH
00:24:37TO CREATE NEW HOUSING AND TO
00:24:40STABILIZE AND SECURE THE HOUSING THAT WE HAVE.
00:24:44WE HAVE ADDED CHANGES TO OUR REGULATORY SYSTEM THAT THE CITY
00:24:47CONTINUES TO WORK ON TO REMOVE
00:24:50OBSTACLES TO CONVERTING COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS TO RESIDENTIAL HOUSING.
00:24:56JUST THIS YEAR WE ADDED SOME PROTECTIONS WORKING WITH THE
00:25:00MANHATTAN DISTRICT ATTORNEY TO
00:25:03GO AFTER LANDLORDS THAT DESERVE
00:25:07CRIMINAL PROSECUTIONS. THERE HAS BEEN ONE STUBBORN
00:25:12PROBLEM AND THAT IS A SITUATION THAT WE TALK ABOUT ALL THE TIME,
00:25:17BUILDING AND MULTIFAMILY BUILDING WHERE THE PROPERTY IS
00:25:19UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO MAINTAIN
00:25:22THE BUILDING THAT KEEPS IT HABITABLE AND LOVABLE AND A
00:25:26DECENT PLACE FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE. THAT MEANS TENANTS SPEND A LONG
00:25:31TIME LIVING IN TERRIBLE CONDITIONS OFTEN DISPLACED FROM
00:25:34THEIR HOMES.
00:25:40THE SOLUTION IS VERY MUCH MAKING SURE WE CAN ADJUDICATE THESE
00:25:42CASES PROMPTLY AND GET REDRESSED
00:25:45TO THE TENANTS AND GET PEOPLE BACK IN THEIR HOMES.
00:25:48I WANT TO BE HERE TO THANK THE
00:25:50MAYOR AND HIS ALL-STAR TEAM, HIS
00:25:52ALL-STAR HOUSING TEAM AND JUDGE
00:25:55ALLIE AND SLOAN FOR COMING
00:26:00TOGETHER AS A RARE COLLABORATION
00:26:02WHERE THE CITY AND THE COURTS
00:26:04TRY TO SORT OUT AND I LET
00:26:10FORWARD TO SEEING THE FRUITS OF THIS WORK.
00:26:12>> WE WILL CLEAR THE STAGE AND
00:26:17DO SOME OFF-TOPIC QUESTIONS. HOLLY?
00:26:23JUST GIVE US ONE SECOND TO RUN THE MICROPHONE AROUND.
00:26:33>> HI, MR. MAYOR.
00:26:38HOW ARE YOU DOING? MAYOR MAMDANI: DOING WELL.
00:26:40>> THE INDIAN RIGHT WING PILLOW
00:26:45MAC -- PARAMILITARY ORGANIZATION
00:26:46IS PLANNING TO HAVE A RALLY AND
00:26:51THERE ARE PROTESTS INCLUDING ONE RIGHT NOW AT CITY HALL.
00:26:57THEY CALLED FOR IT TO BE CANCELED.
00:26:59OPPONENTS TO THE RALLY SAY THE TREATMENT OF RELIGIOUS
00:27:03MINORITIES IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE SPOKEN OUT ABOUT.
00:27:08JUST WANT TO GET YOUR POSITION ABOUT OPEN PRIMARIES. MAYOR MAMDANI: YOU CAN GIVE ME THAT ONE ALSO.
00:27:12>> DURING YOUR CAMPAIGN IF YOU
00:27:15LIKE THE ETHER'S WAS ABOUT EXPANDING THE ELECTORATE AND YOU
00:27:17MADE THAT VIDEO THAT ONE VIRAL ABOUT REACHING OUT TO TRUMP
00:27:21VOTERS BEFORE TO THE PEOPLE WERE
00:27:26TAKING YOU SERIOUSLY AND YOU DID MAKE INROADS GETTING MORE PEOPLE
00:27:30INVOLVED AND GETTING PEOPLE REGISTERED TO VOTE.
00:27:32I WANTED TO ASK HOW THAT SQUARES
00:27:37ABOUT OPPOSING OPEN PRIMARY THAT
00:27:41WOULD ALLOW UNAFFILIATED VOTERS TO PARTICIPATE.
00:27:44MAYOR MAMDANI: I THINK OUR
00:27:46CAMPAIGN SHOWED THAT THE CURRENT
00:27:50SYSTEM COMES OUT TO THE WAY IN
00:27:56WHICH YOU BUILD YOUR CAMPAIGN, THE WAY IN WHICH YOU REACH OUT
00:27:58TO PEOPLE AND ALSO IF YOU ARE
00:28:01ENCOURAGING MORE AND MORE PEOPLE TO CHANGE THEIR LOCATION OF REGISTRATION TO WHERE THEY
00:28:05ACTUALLY LIVE AND ALSO THAT THEY
00:28:08ACTUALLY HAVE A HOME WHEREVER YOU ARE BUILDING.
00:28:13AT THE END OF THE ELECTION
00:28:16CALENDAR, THE FIRST MAYORAL
00:28:20CAMPAIGN TO RECEIVE THAT SINCE THE 1960'S IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.
00:28:26AND SO WHAT THAT SHOWED TO ME IS THAT IS POSSIBLE TO BRING MORE NEW YORKERS END.
00:28:31IT'S NOT A QUESTION OF THE RULES, IT'S A QUESTION OF HOW YOU WANT TO ENGAGE WITH THEM.
00:28:38I ALSO STAND HERE AS THE FIRST INDIAN-AMERICAN MAYOR IN OUR
00:28:42CITY'S HISTORY AND MY MOTHER'S FAMILY IS ALL STILL IN INDIA.
00:28:47AND THE VISION OF INDIA THAT I
00:28:49WAS TAUGHT BY MY FAMILY AND THAT
00:28:53I GROUP WITH BEING FAMILIAR WITH
00:28:57WAS OF A PLURALISTIC SOCIETY, A SECULAR REPUBLIC THAT BELIEVED
00:29:01IN THE BELONGING OF EACH AND
00:29:02EVERY PERSON WHO WAS FROM INDIA
00:29:06AND IT HAS BEEN INCREDIBLY
00:29:08TROUBLING TO SEE THE RISE OF A MOVEMENT PREDICATED ON
00:29:12EXCLUSIONARY VISION OF ANY
00:29:14COUNTRY, FRANKLY, SO IT IS WHEN I FIND MYSELF IN DEEP OPPOSITION
00:29:19TO NOT ONLY AS AN INDIAN-AMERICAN BUT ALSO AS THE MAYOR OF A CITY THAT BELIEVES
00:29:23DEEPLY IN THE BELONGING OF EACH AND EVERY PERSON NO MATTER THEIR
00:29:27COLOR, CREED, RELIGION, FAITH, WHEREVER THEY ARE FROM.
00:29:29>> SHOULD THE RALLY BE CANCELED
00:29:34AT MSG? MAYOR MAMDANI: I DON'T SUPPORT THE RALLY BUT I DON'T KNOW IF
00:29:37THE CITY HAS ANY JURISDICTION ON CANCELING THE RALLY.
00:29:39>> WE HAVE SOME TIME FOR MORE OFF-TOPIC.
00:29:46NICK. >> BOUNCING AROUND LATELY.
00:29:52NOT KNOWING IT WAS NICK.
00:29:57>> MATCHING SWEATSHIRTS. >> GREAT MEMORY.
00:29:59MAYOR MAMDANI: NOT ME AND NICK. [LAUGHTER]
00:30:02>> ME AND MY PARTNER. IT WAS HUMILIATING. [LAUGHTER]
00:30:10>> I WANTED TO ASK IF YOU ARE
00:30:14AWARE OF ANY CHANGES TO CITY
00:30:16POLICY THAT HAVE RESULTED FOR
00:30:22INTERNATIONAL JOB APPLICANTS. PARTICULARLY THE TRUMP
00:30:25ADMINISTRATION LAST YEAR
00:30:29IMPLEMENTING A $100,000 FEE FOR
00:30:32EACH OF THE SAID THEY SPONSORED.
00:30:37HOSPITALS, NONPROFITS. DO YOU KNOW WHETHER IT HAS AFFECTED CITY GOVERNMENTS AT
00:30:41ALL? MAYOR MAMDANI: NOT OF THE TOP OF
00:30:44MY HEAD, BUT WE WILL GET BACK TO YOU ON THAT. >> THANK YOU.
00:30:48>> ON A RELATED QUESTION
00:30:52ACTUALLY, NOW THAT A COUPLE OF WEEKS HAVE PASSED DO YOU THE
00:30:55TALLY OF HOW MANY RECIPIENTS THE
00:30:58CITY HAS HAD TO PART WAYS WITH
00:31:00AND CAN YOU TELL US WHAT
00:31:04PARTICULAR AGENCIES WERE MOST AFFECTED?
00:31:07MAYOR MAMDANI: WE CAN GET BACK TO YOU ON THE EXACT NUMBER.
00:31:11I CAN TELL YOU THESE WERE CITY WORKERS ACROSS A NUMBER OF
00:31:15DIFFERENT AGENCIES WHO PERFORMED VITAL SERVICE TO THE CITY AND IT
00:31:18IS JUST ONE PART OF WHY I HAVE
00:31:23SPOKEN WITH THE PRESIDENT DIRECTLY ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF
00:31:26EXTENDING TPS FOR SO MANY WHO
00:31:30HAVE BEEN DESCRIBED -- DEPRIVED OF THAT STATUS.
00:31:36A STATUS CREATED WITH THE
00:31:37INTENTION OF SHIELDING SETS OF PEOPLE FROM HAVING TO RETURN TO
00:31:41HOME COUNTRIES DEEMED TO BE UNSTABLE. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE CONDITIONS
00:31:46TODAY, THE IDEA THAT WE WOULD SEND HAITIAN AMERICANS BACK IN
00:31:49THIS MOMENT TO ME AS A BETRAYAL
00:31:51OF WHAT IT ACTUALLY STANDS FOR
00:31:55AND WE CONTINUE TO CALL ON THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO CHANGE THAT POSITION.
00:31:58>> GREAT.
00:32:01>> HI, MAYOR, I WANTED TO
00:32:05FOLLOW-UP ON HOLLY'S QUESTION. DO YOU SEE UNAFFILIATED VOTERS
00:32:10AS POTENTIAL VOTERS OR ARE THEY A POLITICAL THREAT?
00:32:14MAYOR MAMDANI: I SEE ANYONE AS A
00:32:17REGISTERED VOTER AS A POTENTIAL
00:32:23VOTER. MY JOB IS TO RESPOND TO THE NEEDS OF EVERYONE WHETHER THEY
00:32:27VOTED FOR ME OR WHETHER THEY VOTED AT ALL.
00:32:30WHEN I'M RUNNING FOR OFFICE I'M LOOKING TO SPEAK TO EVERYONE.
00:32:33WE ARE SPEAKING ABOUT OPEN PRIMARIES BUT I'M SOMEONE WHO RAN THROUGH A COMPETITIVE
00:32:37GENERAL AND THAT IS THE MOMENT WHEN YOU SPEAK TO EVERYONE REGARDLESS OF THEIR
00:32:41REGISTRATION.
00:32:42EARLIER WE WERE TALKING AND
00:32:46HOLLY MENTIONED OUTREACH TO TRUMP VOTERS. BY THE END OF THE ELECTION, ONE
00:32:49IN 10 VOTERS WHO VOTED FOR TRUMP IN THE CITY VOTED FOR OUR CAMPAIGN.
00:32:55IT IS NOT ABOUT CLASSIFYING SOMEONE IS WHETHER THEY ARE WITH YOU OR AGAINST YOU.
00:33:00IT IS ABOUT WHAT YOU LOOKING FOR FOR CITY GOVERNMENT?
00:33:05>> MY SECOND QUESTION ASKING THE
00:33:14CITIES RESTARTING THE AGE
00:33:20VERIFICATION. I KNOW YOUR ADMIN HAS INTERVENED. EARLIER THIS YEAR IN BLOCKING I
00:33:26THINK BIOMETRIC SCREENING.
00:33:29I'M WONDERING WHERE YOU STAND, DO YOU THINK THERE SHOULD BE STRONGER AGE VERIFICATION?
00:33:36MAYOR MAMDANI: THE PRIOR ADMINISTRATION REACHED OUT IN SUPPORT OF THIS AS A MEASURE.
00:33:38WHEN WE CAME INTO OFFICE, WE HAD
00:33:45RISKS DUE TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS.
00:33:49THE HANDLING OF MINORS IN NEW YORK CITY AND THE EFFICACY OF
00:33:53THIS KIND OF DATA IN ASSERTING
00:33:56WHAT THE ACTUAL INTENT IS OF THE PROGRAM.
00:33:59SO I CONTINUE TO HAVE THAT
00:34:04SKEPTICISM AFTER HAVING BEEN INFORMED ABOUT THE CRITIQUES OF
00:34:06THIS KIND OF A PROGRAM AND I
00:34:08THINK WHAT WE HAVE SEEN IN THE
00:34:12LAST FEW WEEKS AND THE LAST FEW MONTHS IS WHEN IT COMES TO A
00:34:15LACK OF SAFETY IT IS DERIVED
00:34:21FROM THE PURCHASING AND NEW YORK
00:34:28CITY LOSS OF ONE OF THESE THINGS
00:34:32IS THE MORE THAN 40 RETAILERS
00:34:35SOUND TO BE FAN -- SENDING E
00:34:38BIKES THAT ARE NOT LEGAL IN THE CITY.
00:34:40>> GLORIA, THEN MATT WILL BE OUR
00:34:44LAST QUESTION. >> GOOD MORNING, MR. MAYOR.
00:34:49TWO SEPARATE QUESTIONS, YOU
00:34:52PROBABLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS INITIATIVE AT THE U.S. OPEN AND
00:34:56MAKING TICKETS MORE AFFORDABLE AND AVAILABLE TO NEW YORKERS AND THAT I HAVE A SEPARATE QUESTION.
00:35:00>> WE ARE VERY EXCITED THAT
00:35:06TODAY WE ANNOUNCED THAT WE HAVE SECURED 1000 DISCOUNTED TICKETS
00:35:09FOR NEW YORKERS TO BE SOLD AT $100 A TICKET.
00:35:12THEY WILL GO ON SALE TOMORROW AT
00:35:1410:00 A.M. AND ANY NEW YORKER
00:35:16WHO LIVES IN OUR CITY, ALL THEY WILL BE REQUIRED TO DO IS PROVIDE THE ZIP CODE.
00:35:21THEY CAN PROVIDE A TICKET FOR
00:35:23THEMSELVES AND ANOTHER LUCKY
00:35:27PERSON. THEY WILL BE FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED -- PUN INTENDED.
00:35:31PART OF THE BEAUTY OF LIVING IN
00:35:34OUR CITY IS EXPOSURE TO SOME OF
00:35:38THE GREATEST SPORTING EVENTS ACROSS THE WORLD.
00:35:41THE U.S. OPEN IS SOMETHING MANY NEW YORKERS HAVE FOND MEMORIES
00:35:45OF AND LIKE MANY SPORTING EVENTS, NEW YORKERS FEEL LIKE
00:35:48THEY DON'T HAVE A CHANCE TO BE A PART OF SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
00:35:55OUR MISSION IS HOW CAN WE BRING AS MANY NEW YORKERS AS POSSIBLE
00:35:59TO BE A PART OF SUCH A WONDERFUL EVENT.
00:36:00>> MY SECOND QUESTION WAS ABOUT
00:36:04CONGRESSMAN HAKEEM JEFFRIES. YOU SAID YOU WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT HIM.
00:36:10I WONDER IF YOU HAVE THOUGHTS ON
00:36:12THE FACT THAT HE MET WITH JARED KUSHNER IN RECENT WEEKS, I
00:36:16WONDER IF YOU HAVE THOUGHTS ON THAT STRATEGY AND IF YOU HAVE
00:36:19SPOKEN TO HIM AT ALL ABOUT HOW
00:36:23DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE STRATEGIZING
00:36:25AHEAD OF A POTENTIAL MAJORITY AFTER THE MIDTERMS?
00:36:31MAYOR MAMDANI: I DON'T HAVE MANY THOUGHTS.
00:36:34I CONTINUE TO BE IN REGULAR
00:36:38COOPERATION.
00:36:41HOW CAN WE DELIVER FOR NEW YORKERS?
00:36:45WHEN IT COMES TO WHAT LIFE LOOKS LIKE AFTER THE MIDTERMS, I HOPE
00:36:48WE WILL BE CELEBRATING TAKING BACK THE HOUSE.
00:36:54TWO, I WOULD ALWAYS HOPE THAT AT
00:36:56THAT POINT WE WOULD ARTICULATE
00:37:00WHAT WE ARE STANDING FOR.
00:37:02I KNOW WE ARE STANDING UP TO A
00:37:05FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION OF WHAT
00:37:10IS OUR AGENDA WE ARE FIGHTING
00:37:15FOR.
00:37:23AND STILL DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY IN THEIR POCKET TO PAY FOR
00:37:27THEIR GROCERIES.
00:37:32AND NOW THAT WE CAN BRING THAT HOPEFULLY INTO A MAJORITY.
00:37:36>> MATT, FOR YOUR LAST QUESTION,
00:37:39THANK YOU.
00:37:42>> SHOULD KOKO CHAIR -- STEP
00:37:44DOWN AFTER LYINGL-TIME
00:37:47GIG WITH DSA?
00:37:51MAYOR MAMDANI: THE D IN DSA
00:37:55STANDS FOR DEMOCRATIC.
00:37:56I'LL LEAD TO THEM FOR ITS OWN
00:37:59VOTING AS TO WHO THEY ELECT AS
00:38:03LEADERS. I THINK THAT WHAT WE'VE SEEN
00:38:06WITH GUS TVO AS WELL AS OTHERS IS THAT FIGHT TO MAKE THIS A
00:38:10CITY THAT EVERYONE CAN BELONG TO.
00:38:13>> DOES THAT MEAN YOU CONDEMN THE ACTIONS ABOUT LYING ABOUT
00:38:17THESE DETAILS? MAYOR MAMDANI: THANK YOU VERY
00:38:21MUCH. [APPLAUSE]
