  • Small Business First Report
    Small Business First Better Government. Stronger Businesses. 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2 Small businesses strengthen New York City’s economy, anchor communities, create jobs, and add to the vibrancy of the City’s neighborhoods. Of the more than 200,000 businesses located in New York City, 98 percent are small (fewer than 100 employees) and 89 percent are very small (fewer than 20 employees). These small businesses employ more than half of New York City’s private sector workforce, and often provide a first chance for economic self-determination and a path to the middle class for their owners. Every day, however, small businesses face a variety of challenges, including multiple levels of government regulation. Steps have been taken over the years to improve New York City’s regulatory environment, but the complexity and number of requirements weigh heavily on small businesses that often have fewer resources to navigate government. In July 2014, Mayor de Blasio launched Small Business First, an inter-agency initiative led by the Mayor’s Office of Operations and the Department of Small Business Services to make government more effective and efficient in helping businesses start, operate, and expand. The result is 30 recommendations to greatly improve the City’s regulatory environment for small businesses and save business owners time, money, and hassle, as well as increase satisfaction with City services. To build the recommendations included in Small Business First, the City worked closely with small business owners, advocates, neighborhood and community leaders, and elected officials, to solicit ideas about how best to help small businesses. More than 600 unique comments and ideas were received detailing the specific needs of small businesses across the five boroughs.

Murrow High School in Brooklyn This report was produced by the Mayor’s Office of Operations’ Performance Management Team and in Photo courtesy of Mayoral Photography Office collaboration with the City agencies presented within. NYC.gov/Photos CONTRIBUTORS Shariful Bhuiya Kristi Brown Tina Chiu Douglas Giuliano Henry Hecht Guenevere Knowles Bonda Lee-Cunningham Stephen Narloch Gaëlle C. Pierre, Ph.D. Norma Ponce Dan Steinberg Marlon WiIIie Cover Design: Toby Allan LETTER FROM THE MAYOR My Fellow New Yorkers: For nearly 40 years, the Mayor’s Management Report (MMR) has given the people of this city a window into how their government is working for them. The MMR embodies our commitment to transparency and accountability and it is one of the ways we use data to improve City services for all New Yorkers. The 2016 report marks my Administration’s second full year of providing this important information. The MMR highlights the full range of what we do: from everyday services to emergency operations; from small-scale initiatives to larger endeavors. Some of these services have an immediate and tangible effect, while others will have a significant effect over time. I’ve often talked about the inequities in our society as a Tale of Two Cities. With the MMR, you will get a detailed look at how City government is tackling these inequalities and creating a New York that is inclusive and fairer for all.

Reconstruction Watch is intended to assist low and moderate income New Yorkers in understanding and influencing the reconstruction process. Through its research and publications, Reconstruction Watch will provide these New Yorkers and the organizations that assist and represent them with timely information that they can use to participate effectively in the reconstruction process. Reconstruction Watch will: · Provide useful information on the key players in the reconstruction process. · Analyze, in plain English, the subsidy proposals being advanced at the federal, state and city levels to foster economic development in New York City in the wake of the September 11th attacks.

What are the benefits and drawbacks of each proposed subsidy? · Report on subsidies targeted to specific firms including the estimated dollar value of the deal, the company’s job creation and retention performance, its compliance with environmental and labor standards, and previous subsidies received.

    November 17, 2015 Carl Weisbrod, Chair City Planning Commission 22 Reade Street New York, NY 10007 Re: Zoning for Quality and Affordability (ZQA) and Mandatory Inclusionary Housing (MIH) Text Amendment Dear Chair Weisbrod: We write in regard to the proposed citywide text amendments currently under public review known as Zoning for Quality and Affordability (ZQA) and Mandatory Inclusionary Housing (MIH). If approved, these text amendments have the ability to drastically reshape how housing, particularly affordable housing, is constructed in New York City. Therefore, while these text amendments mark an impressive amount of effort from the Department of City Planning (DCP) and the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) to address Mayor de Blasio’s goal of creating or preserving 200,000 units of affordable housing in NYC, we need to ensure that they also make sense for our communities. These text amendments must include language, provisions and programs that address the needs and desires of all of our neighborhoods. We previously wrote to you, in a letter dated March 25, 2015, to highlight our concerns with the ZQA text at scoping. At the time, the text reflected a desire to encourage housing construction of all kinds, without tying significant changes in the bulk rules to the true goal: construction of affordable housing. We raised our concerns regarding teardowns, across the board changes to our contextual districts and disregard for community or neighborhood character or uniqueness. Of significant concern at the time, in addition to the need to improve outreach and communication, was that the underlying zoning programs for creating affordable housing were flawed.
