A group representing dozens of civic and neighborhood organizations across Queens is calling for an investigation into a citywide housing proposal amid federal probes into the mayor and his administration.
On Monday, the Queens Civic Congress released a statement calling for an immediate halt to the City of Yes Housing Opportunity initiative, now in its final stages of the legislative process. The plan, which seeks to upend zoning regulations to encourage more housing to be built, has received sharp criticism from residents and elected officials over the past year.
