Community Board 1 agendas for July

Community Board 1 has returned to in-person meetings; however the public is encouraged to use Webex live due to capacity constraints. Meetings are also recorded and posted to the board’s YouTube page. You can also find documents and draft resolutions here. As always, contact the board at man01@cb.nyc.gov. My comments in caps.

PS: I am *still* woefully behind on CB1 reports. Promise to catch up this week.  Comment if there’s something you are dying to know about and I will follow up.

  1. No meetings on that Safe Haven shelter on top of the school at south street? How can this really happen to school, residence or the seaport!!

  2. Safe Haven unvetted men right near a grade school on Peck Slip will destroy the school and the community. That neighborhood has had enough.

  3. We should be talking about the shelter attached to peck slip school the city is pushing through. Insane. Saw the article in the post today. A smoking area right outside the schools interior windows
