The trio of rezoning policies collectively known as City of Yes is making its way through a legal challenge, bolstered by support from Bronx residents and organizations who argue the reforms were rushed through without proper assessment of their environmental and local impact.
The lawsuit was filed in March against Mayor Eric Adams, the City Council, City Planning Commission, and Department of City Planning and has more than 100 plaintiffs, made up of elected officials, individuals, and community groups seeking to block the rezoning they say was illegally implemented.
