    This Week In New York/Page 1 This Week in New York Covering New York State and City Government A Publication of Pitta Bishop & Del Giorno LLC September 27, 2019 Edition Shanah Tovah from Pitta Bishop & Del Giorno LLC In the News – State Governor Breaks Ground on New Belmont Park Arena Governor Andrew Cuomo joined the New York Islanders, National Hockey League Commissioner Gary Bettman, local leaders and hockey fans to break ground on the New York Islanders' new arena at Belmont Park, the centerpiece of the $1.3 billion Belmont Park Redevelopment. In addition, Governor Cuomo announced the team has agreed to play 28 regular season games at the Nassau Veteran's Memorial Coliseum during the 2019-2020 season, seven more than previously planned. {00665744.DOCX / }Pitta Bishop & Del Giorno LLC, 111 Washington Avenue, Albany, New York. (518) 449-3320 Theresa Cosgrove, editor, [email protected] This Week In New York/Page 2 "The Islanders belong on Long Island — and today we start building the state-of-the-art home this team and their fans deserve while generating thousands of jobs and billions in economic activity for the region's economy," Governor Cuomo said. "With seven more Islanders games at the Coliseum this season, fans will have even more opportunities to see their favorite team and generate momentum for the move to their new home in two years. At the end of the day this project is about building on two great Long Island traditions - Belmont Park and the Islanders - and making them greater than ever." Announced in December 2017, the Belmont Redevelopment Project will turn 43 acres of underutilized parking lots at Belmont Park into a premier sports and hospitality destination, including a new 19,000-seat arena for the New York Islanders hockey team and other events, a 250-key hotel, a retail village and office and community space.

  • It's Showtime
    : THE DETAILS TO DELIVER: SCOTT STRINGER’S MAYORAL PLANS Volume 8 It’s Showtime: A 25-Point Plan to Revive Arts and Culture in New York City and Build a More Equitable Future May 6, 2021 IT’S SHOWTIME: A 25-Point Plan to Revive Arts and Culture in New York City and Build a More Equitable Future EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There’s no place like New York City when it comes to arts and culture. From our world-class museums, to the bright lights of Broadway, to local DIY venues, to trailblazing artists and companies, the five boroughs represent the artistic center of the country and perhaps the world. It is where Abstract Expressionism and minimalist art, bebop, hip hop, and salsa, modern dance, modern ballet, break dancing, and voguing were born — and where every corner of every neighborhood is bustling with creativity and culture. New York City’s ecosystem of artists, educators, craftsmen, media, philanthropy -- and yes, audience members -- are unmatched anywhere in the world. And yet it is precisely this interconnected network that has been so existentially threatened by COVID-19 and the profound job losses the pandemic wrought after cultural venues were forced to shutter more than a year ago. Scott Stringer understands that New York City is all but defined by its arts and culture, and as mayor he will lead the charge to bring back the creative sector. Today, more than one year after the first Broadway stages closed their doors, the city’s cultural workers and cultural sector are still struggling and need a robust plan to not only recover, but to build a more vibrant, enriching, inclusive, diverse, STRINGER FOR MAYOR | MAY 6, 2021 2 populist, and daring cultural sector than ever before.

  • Year in Review 2020 – 2021
    YEAR IN REVIEW 2020 – 2021 THE GARMENT DISTRICT ALLIANCE 1 WELCOME BACK Like most of Midtown, the Garment District faced new challenges this past year. Pedestrian counts were well below normal, as office tenants predominantly worked from home and ground floor businesses remained closed or limited their hours. Reduced activity impacted public safety and affected the ways in which we typically measure success. However, the Garment District Alliance was never more important to the neighborhood than it was this year. Despite the pandemic, our office never closed, as our dedicated staff continued to provide critical public safety and sanitation services. We worked closely with the West Midtown community, our neighboring BIDs, and the City of New York to tackle quality of life issues. We supported our local companies through social media promotions and business development initiatives, and we pushed forward with important streetscape, horticulture, and public art projects. In short, we kept the Garment District ready for business, while laying the groundwork for the years ahead. Today, we are happy to report that a slow but steady stream of employees is returning to the neighborhood. We are thankful for all the resilient companies of the Garment District, several of whom we celebrate in the pages of this report. Whether they have returned to the neighborhood or can’t wait to come back, our diverse businesses community is what will continue to make the Garment District a vibrant part of Midtown. Recovery has begun. We look forward to everyone getting back to business. Barbara A. Blair Martin Meyer President Chair 2 NEIGHBORHOOD PROMOTION 3 Doggy Bags A series of gigantic, playful dog companions took center stage on Broadway from September to Thanksgiving.

  • 2016-1: in the Matter of Campaign for One New York and United for Affordable NYC
    2016-1: In the Matter of Campaign for One New York and United for Affordable NYC July 6, 2016 The New York City Campaign Finance Board (the “Board” or “CFB”) issues this determination concerning a complaint received on February 22, 2016 from Common Cause/NY (“the Complaint”). The issue presented is whether a candidate, Bill de Blasio (“Mr. de Blasio”), and his 2017 campaign for Mayor (the “2017 Campaign”) have violated the Campaign Finance Act (“the Act”) and Board Rules by establishing and cooperating closely with Campaign for One New York (“C41NY”) and United for Affordable NYC (“UFANYC”). The Board’s central mandate is to protect the integrity of the Act and administer the Campaign Finance Program (“the Program”). The effectiveness of the Program depends on the Act’s contribution and expenditure limits, which restrict the potential influence of large special interest donors. The Board is concerned about candidates engaging in cooperation with outside organizations that have made expenditures on issue advocacy communications promoting the candidate, especially organizations that raise contributions that would be otherwise impermissible under the Act. Such cooperative activity raises the question of whether these organizations are making expenditures in connection with a covered election. The Board simultaneously issues Advisory Opinion 2016-1 to provide further guidance in this area of the law. The Advisory Opinion provides a basis for the Board to review the issue presented by the Complaint, and establishes a set of factors the Board will consider to determine whether coordinated expenditures were made in connection with a covered election. The Board has determined that C41NY is not independent of the 2017 Campaign.
