    OFFICE OF THE MAYOR THE CITY OF NEW YORK DEAN FULEIHAN FIRST DEPUTY M AYOR October 18, 2019 Honorable Corey Johnson Honorable Diana Ayala Honorable Margaret Chin Honorable Stephen T. Levin Honorable Karen Koslowitz New York City Council City Hall New York, NY 10007 Dear Speaker Johnson and Council Member Ayala, Chin, Levin and Koslowitz, In this city, we believe safety and fairness walk hand in hand. That's why today, New York City is not only the safest big city in America - we also have the lowest incarceration rate of any big city in America. Together, we are ending the era of mass incarceration. Over the past year, we have worked to engage the neighborhoods of Mott Haven, Chinatown, Downtown Brooklyn, and Kew Gardens in order to plan for the closure of the jails on Rikers Island and the creation of a system of four new borough-based facilities. As we move forward with the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) for community-based jails, together we take another step towards realizing a smaller, safer, and fairer justice system. The City has undertaken a robust community engagement effort, which is ongoing and will continue throughout the design and construction of the proposed borough-based jail system. This includes direct engagement with neighborhood residents, community leaders, and advocates to develop recommendations regarding the facilities and surrounding community needs. This administration has actively worked to incorporate the feedback we have heard throughout this process and to ensure that the new borough-based facilities will be seen as an asset to the surrounding neighborhood.
