The Mamdani administration kicked off a citywide series of NYCHA forums in the Bronx on May 20, where hundreds of residents brought their housing concerns directly to senior officials.
The first “NYCHA In Your Neighborhood” event at the Classic Community Center in Melrose paralleled the administration’s recent “Rental Ripoff” hearings for tenants in privately-owned buildings. But instead of a town hall style, the NYCHA forum allowed for individual and small-group discussions by table, addressing topics such as public safety, resident services, capital projects, pest and trash management, modernization and heating.
