New: NYC voters gave a confident “yes” to all five of the ballot measures put forward by Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s first charter commission, with election night results favoring proposals intended to streamline government processes. cityandstateny.com/politics/…

The results seem likely to be a total victory for the New York City mayor, whose Charter Revision Commission put the “faster government” measures on the ballot.

Zohran Mamdani’s administration has unveiled new sidewalk shed designs for NYC in an effort to bring better-designed sidewalks to all five boroughs. The administration has also reduced the number of sidewalk sheds by 1,200 across the city — a decrease of over 15% in 10 months.

New York City saw high levels of compliance with Local Law 97 in its first enforcement year, but @NYC_Buildings is sending out notices of deficiency and fines to those that haven’t filed or were over emissions limits. smartcitiesdive.com/news/nyc…
