Council Member Avilés inquires whether all city agencies are compliant with Local Law 30. Kenneth Lo from MOIA responds that agencies are generally in compliance, based on their work with the agencies and checks performed by the Mayor's Office of Operations and the Controller.

  • MOIA works with agencies on their language access implementation plans and annual reports
  • The Mayor's Office of Operations checks for compliance
  • The Controller has conducted compliance checks over the past several years, finding agencies largely in compliance
