By Skye Ostreicher Posted on June 3, 2021

Vanessa Gibson is running to be our next Bronx Borough President, taking over for term-limited Ruben Diaz Jr.

The borough president proposes legislation, zoning changes, city-wide budget recommendations, and direction for land-use in the borough. Borough presidents appoint members to the New York City Planning Commission, and members to other local boards.

PoliticsNY asked Gibson, who is a current NYC Council Member, three questions in three minutes as part of our meet the candidate series on the road to the June 22 citywide primaries.
