  • Recommends joint, local, after-hours hearings for Community Board and Borough President reviews to ensure timeliness and public input.
  • Expresses concerns about infrastructure impacts and displacement risks from increased density in her community.
  • Challenges the accuracy of a racial equity report associated with the rezoning.
  • Argues for maintaining local council member accountability within the ULURP process.
