Elaine Young, representing the West Cunningham Park Civic Association, strongly opposes the City of Yes proposal. She argues that it threatens low-density communities, removes community input from zoning decisions, and primarily benefits developers and real estate interests.
- Young criticizes the vilification of low-density areas, stating they make up only 15% of New York City
- She questions the motives behind the proposal, citing Mayor Adams' indictment for bribery and corruption
- The association, representing 5,000 residents, warns they will remember council members who vote in favor of the proposal
