Council Member Chris Banks inquires about how NYCHA tracks its progress in meeting sustainability and resiliency goals. NYCHA officials explain their reporting process.
- NYCHA publishes annual updates to its sustainability agenda on its website
- The updates include summary-level information on progress towards goals, such as solar installation targets
- Officials offer to provide a detailed list of completed and under-construction solar projects

                                        And that plan, would it state how many developments, have actually, are solar?

                                        So we have a summary level, sort of how man how far we are towards our our solar progress.

                                        I am not sure whether the website currently has the full list of developments, but we can look at that.

                                        What we don't share publicly, is obviously the ones that are in process where we're working on new leases.
