Nina Kubota clarifies that while there is collaboration with City Planning on matters like rezoning and updating the housing multiplier, the decision on where to build schools does not involve this partnership.
- Collaboration exists in areas such as rezonings and the update of housing multipliers with the latest census data.
- The NYC School Construction Authority collaborates with City Planning for accessing all sources of data.
- The specific decision on school locations does not involve collaboration with the Department of City Planning.
- The delineation of responsibilities indicates focused collaboration but separate decision-making processes.
