As head of the NYC Council’s Committee on Public Housing, Councilmember Alicka Ampry-Samuel questioned NYCHA reps on Tuesday ahead of the cold winter months on their level of preparedness for heater outages.
“I cannot count how many times I’ve received calls from residents, requesting hot plates and asking that million dollar question. ‘How long will my gas be out?’ To which I never have an answer,” Ampry-Samuel said.
