Sunset Park leaders demand meeting with mayor’s advisers ahead of Industry City vote
SUNSET PARK — With Community Board 7’s deadline to vote on Industry City’s rezoning approaching, two Sunset Park officials are calling on the mayor to send his top advisers to the board to shed insight — and discuss the city’s investments — as residents consider the 172-page application.
Councilmember Carlos Menchaca and CB7 chairperson Cesar Zuniga sent a letter to Mayor Bill de Blasio on Monday urging the city to meet with them prior to Dec. 18 to create a more equitable framework for the expansion.
“We are writing to request meetings with your top advisors on housing, economic development, education, climate resilience, social services and small business services to discuss Industry City’s rezoning proposal,” the letter reads.
