Update on Councilmember Ben Kallos' Forum on Overdevelopment
Councilmember Ban Kallos (D-Sutton Place) was generous to allow Fight For NYCHA to speak at his Forum on Overdevelopment at CUNY Graduate Center on June 27. Councilmmember Kallos noted how his office and the office of Borough President Gale Brewer (D-Manhattan) had opposed any development of NYCHA that circumvented the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure ("ULURP"). Please watch the Occupy Radio video of the brief remarks made about the importance of putting the plan by Mayor Bill de Blasio (D-New York), calling for the demolition and RAD conversion of public housing, on the public agenda.
