“Along with the numerous other ambitious agenda items from the Mayor’s State of the City address today, City of Yes for Economic Opportunity is a commonsense initiative that holds the potential to reshape the landscape of small businesses and commercial corridors in New York City,” said Carlo Scissura, Esq., President and CEO of the NY Building Congress. “Having more flexibility for local entrepreneurs and small businesses is precisely the rational response our city needs to thrive. The New York Building Congress supports the City of Yes and the elimination of antiquated rules and simplification of regulations that result in vacant storefronts. We urge the Commission to support this groundbreaking initiative and ensure New York City can serve as a beacon of opportunity and innovation for future generations.”
