The hearings are conducted 10 pursuant to the New York State Constitution 11 and Legislative Law. 12 Today the Assembly Ways and Means 13 Committee and the Senate Finance Committee 14 will hear testimony concerning the Governor's 15 budget proposal for transportation. 16 I'll now introduce the members from 17 the Assembly, and Senator Krueger, chair of 18 the Senate Finance Committee, will introduce 19 members from the Senate, and in addition 20 Ranking Ways and Means Member Ra will 21 introduce members from his conference. 22 So we have with us Assemblyman 23 Magnarelli, chair of Transportation; 24 Assemblywoman Paulin, chair of our 8 1 Corporations Committee; Assemblyman Carroll, 2 Assemblywoman Rozic, Assemblyman Braunstein, 3 Assemblyman Jacobson, Assemblyman Steck, 4 Assemblywoman Williams, Assemblywoman 5 Hyndman. 6 Senate members? 7 CHAIRWOMAN KRUEGER: Thank you. 8 Good morning, everyone. I'm joined by 9 Senator -- I'm so sorry. Excuse me. Leroy 10 Comrie is the chair of Corporations, 11 Authorities and Commissions; Tim Kennedy is 12 the chair of Transportation. Senator Liu, 13 Senator Kaminsky, Senator Thomas, Senator 14 Savino, Senator Rivera and Senator Kaplan are 15 all with us today. 16 And Senator Seward will introduce his 17 members who have joined us. 18 SENATOR SEWARD: Yes, thank you, Madam 19 Chair. We're joined today by the ranking 20 member of the Transportation Committee, 21 Senator Robach. Also Senator Borrello, 22 Senator Little, and Senator Serino will be 23 joining us shortly. 24 CHAIRWOMAN WEINSTEIN: Assemblyman Ra. 9 1 ASSEMBLYMAN RA: Thank you. We're 2 joined this morning by Assemblyman Dave 3 McDonough, the ranking member on the 4 Transportation Committee; Assemblyman Kevin 5 Byrne; and Assemblyman Joe DeStefano. 6 CHAIRWOMAN WEINSTEIN: So before 7 introducing our first witness, a few 8 guidelines for today. I want to remind all 9 witnesses testifying today to keep your 10 statements within your allotted time limit so 11 all can be afforded an opportunity to speak. 12 And in terms of the members, 13 chairpersons of relevant committees have a 14 10-minute allotment for questions and answers 15 of government witnesses. All other 16 legislators who are members of relevant 17 committees receive five minutes for questions 18 and answers. For nongovernmental witnesses, 19 all legislators have five minutes for 20 questions and answers, and the 21 nongovernmental witnesses have up to five 22 minutes for their presentation. 23 And witnesses that have submitted 24 their testimony are reminded that that 10 1 testimony will be part of our record and will 2 be posted online, so please do not feel 3 compelled to read word for word. And a 4 concise summary of your highlights will allow 5 the members' questions to be more productive 6 and focused and allow all of the witnesses 7 testifying to have an opportunity to do so -- 8 maybe not all in daylight, but to a more 9 attentive audience. 10 So with that, I would like to call our 11 first witnesses that are sitting at the 12 table, ready to go. From the Metropolitan 13 Transportation Authority, Patrick Foye, MTA 14 president; Janno Lieber, chief development 15 officer; Bob Foran, CFO. 16 The floor is yours, Patrick. 17 MTA PRESIDENT FOYE: Thank you. Good 18 morning, members of the Senate and the 19 Assembly. Thank you for having us today, 20 particularly Chair Weinstein, Chair Krueger, 21 Chair Comrie, Chair Kennedy, Chair 22 Magnarelli, and Chair Paulin, for your 23 leadership and for the invitation today. 24 I'm here with my colleagues MTA Chief 11 1 Financial Officer Bob Foran to my right, and 2 Chief Development Officer Janno Lieber to my 3 left. When we were here last year, I think 4 it's fair -- it's not an overstatement to say 5 the MTA was at a historic crossroads. Since 6 then, we've made tremendous progress in 7 improving operations and changing the way we 8 do business, with the beginning of 9 transformation underway. But still our core 10 mission remains the same: providing safe and 11 reliable transportation to keep the region 12 moving. 13 Our new chief transformation officer, 14 Anthony McCord, is leading the transformation 15 process -- he's been on the job approximately 16 three weeks -- and assembling the team that 17 will chart the course for the new MTA. We've 18 recently brought on Mario Péloquin as chief 19 operating officer and Mark Dowd as chief 20 innovation officer, with several more 21 additions to the senior leadership team 22 coming soon. Under Anthony McCord's 23 leadership, the Transformation Management 24 Office will lead the MTA's reorganization 12 1 effort and enact the changes necessary to 2 create a leaner, more efficient and 3 centralized agency. 4 This reform is already driving toward 5 meaningful results. For example, Janno 6 Lieber oversees our newly consolidated 7 Construction and Development Division, which 8 serves as a single, central point responsible 9 for planning, development and delivery of 10 capital projects. Four hundred thirty 11 employees have already been reassigned to 12 this Construction and Development department, 13 in a first phase of transformation. Under 14 Janno's leadership, we've started bundling 15 construction projects to expedite project 16 timelines and reduce costs.

  • A Retrospective of Preservation Practice and the New York City Subway System
    Under the Big Apple: a Retrospective of Preservation Practice and the New York City Subway System by Emma Marie Waterloo This thesis/dissertation document has been electronically approved by the following individuals: Tomlan,Michael Andrew (Chairperson) Chusid,Jeffrey M. (Minor Member) UNDER THE BIG APPLE: A RETROSPECTIVE OF PRESERVATION PRACTICE AND THE NEW YORK CITY SUBWAY SYSTEM A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Emma Marie Waterloo August 2010 © 2010 Emma Marie Waterloo ABSTRACT The New York City Subway system is one of the most iconic, most extensive, and most influential train networks in America. In operation for over 100 years, this engineering marvel dictated development patterns in upper Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx. The interior station designs of the different lines chronicle the changing architectural fashion of the aboveground world from the turn of the century through the 1940s. Many prominent architects have designed the stations over the years, including the earliest stations by Heins and LaFarge. However, the conversation about preservation surrounding the historic resource has only begun in earnest in the past twenty years. It is the system’s very heritage that creates its preservation controversies. After World War II, the rapid transit system suffered from several decades of neglect and deferred maintenance as ridership fell and violent crime rose. At the height of the subway’s degradation in 1979, the decision to celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the opening of the subway with a local landmark designation was unusual.
