In addition to this oversight topic, we will be discussing 2 resolutions, one of which is my own, calling on MTA to conduct a comprehensive EIS on the viability of the Queensland project.

Communities across Southeast Queens have been consistently left out of plans to expand transit access, leaving them to become transit deserts.

The Queensland project proposes connecting northern and southern Queens using what was formerly the Rockaway Beach branch of the Long Island Railroad.

By extend by extending service on the m train from Regal Park to Rockways, this project could provide an estimated 80,000 daily riders with a new and efficient option for transit while bringing an estimated 150,000 new jobs, a $13,000,000,000 increase in personal income, and potentially increase in property values along the corridor by up to $75,000,000,000 Furthermore, we will be hearing result number 187 sponsored by council member Riley calling upon the MTA to conduct a comprehensive EIS for the proposed Gun Hill Road Electric Bus Depot Charging Facility.
