Council Member Rita Joseph inquires about the frequency and process of lease terminations due to landlord non-compliance. Cora Liu from the School Construction Authority (SCA) provides limited information on this topic.

  • Lease terminations due to landlord non-compliance are not frequent occurrences.
  • Cora Liu does not have the total number of such terminations readily available.
  • One specific case of lease termination in Brooklyn is mentioned, where the program was successfully relocated to a better setup.
  • The council member requests that the total number of lease terminations be provided at a later time.
  • This exchange highlights the rarity of lease terminations and the SCA's ability to relocate programs when necessary.

There's one lease we terminated last year for a program in Brooklyn and working with York City Public School, we're able to relocate the program to a different location, and it's a better setup for the program.
