New Charter Commission bill is latest chapter in City Council’s running feud with Mayor Adams

A Charter Commission bill passed Wednesday marks the latest chapter in the never-ending feud between the City Council and Mayor Eric Adams.

Following the passage of Mayor Adams’ ballot measures that will take some power away from the City Council last week, the legislature struck back on Wednesday by passing Speaker Adrienne Adams’ legislation to establish a commission that could put the body’s own proposals on the ballot sometime in the next two years.
