Council Member Farías inquires about the breakdown of land ownership at Hunts Point Produce Market and the nature of the relationship between the market and EDC.

  • Questions about the division of city, state, federal, and private land ownership
  • Inquiry into the approval process for capital improvements by market cooperatives
  • EDC representative unable to provide immediate answers, promising to follow up with details
Amanda Farías

Okay.
1:16:48
And can I get an overview of the lands at the produce market?
1:16:52
How much is city land versus state land, federal or private lands?
Gale A. Brewer
1:16:55
Do we
Amanda Farías
1:16:55
have that in front of us?
Michelle Lamberti
1:16:57
I do not, but I am happy to get
Gale A. Brewer
1:16:58
back to you with that.
Amanda Farías
1:17:01
And I guess my follow-up is the nature of the relationships between the markets at EDC.
1:17:08
Can you talk a little bit about that?
1:17:10
If the cooperatives at the market want to make capital improvements, who's the approval process?
1:17:15
Is it just EDC?
1:17:16
Is it independently?
1:17:17
Is it another agency?
Michelle Lamberti
1:17:20
Yeah sure and so that's a question that I probably will have to take back to get more clarity on but I'm happy to do that.
1:17:25
So the approval process for capital improvement.
Amanda Farías
1:17:27
We I will follow-up with Yeah.
Gale A. Brewer
1:17:29
Of course.
