Pols call for improvement in storm relief
Borough President Eric Adams held a conference with elected officials Tuesday near a large tree that was knocked down during Tropical Storm Isaias.
The tree was still blocking the sidewalk at 12th Avenue and 79th Street a week after the storm.
“Isaias is one of the strongest storms that has hit this community,” said Adams. “Storms are going to continue to come and become more destructive unless we do something that’s different.”
