Council Member Abreu inquires about the inclusion of two major NYCHA complexes, Manhattanville Houses and Grant Houses, in the Manhattan Community Board 9 pilot program. Commissioner Tisch confirms their inclusion with some clarifications.
- NYCHA complexes Manhattanville Houses and Grant Houses will be included in the pilot program
- Inclusion applies to the extent that these complexes are not already containerized
- Some NYCHA complexes may already be containerized with compactors
- The program will affect NYCHA complexes that currently leave bags on the street

                                        Yes, to the extent that they're not already containerized.

                                        Meaning, if those complexes leave their bags on the street, then yes.

                                        Some NYCHA comp complexes already are containerized with compactors and that type of thing.

                                        I'll come back to that.
