Councilwoman Sandra Ung is once again urging the city to address the proliferation of unlicensed street vendors that have created a public health and safety issue in the heart of downtown Flushing. 

According to Ung, the street vendors have created congestion and clogged sidewalks for residents, shoppers and tens of thousands of commuters who pass through the busy transit hub daily.
