Council Member Eric Dinowitz presents three pieces of legislation aimed at improving accessibility in the city and informing students about financial aid opportunities.

  • The first bill establishes accessibility guidelines for public facing print documents, inspired by an FDNY mailer's issues.
  • The second bill focuses on creating bike storage in city-owned buildings to support alternative transportation and environmental benefits.
  • The third resolution calls for New York State to mandate schools to provide thorough information on financial aid opportunities, like FAFSA and the Dream Act, to their students.
  • Dinowitz emphasizes the impact of accessible information and infrastructure on creating a more inclusive and sustainable city.
