At this preliminary budget hearing, the Land Use Committee put two land-use agencies on the stand. LPC Chair Sarah Carroll defended a small, nearly all-personnel budget while touting an at-risk-building initiative and homeowner grants. Then DCP's Dan Gorodnik faced a fast-moving slate: City of Yes for Economic Opportunity in public review, Housing Opportunity in ULURP, Midtown South's draft plan just released, and 49 staff vacancies. Salamanca pressed on Atlantic Avenue's status and HUD funding; council members and CLT advocates pushed on displacement, enforcement, and community land trusts.
