Rent relief is what New York City Housing Authority residents say they need now after being denied it during the pandemic shutdown. DaveCarlinTV has more on a tenant rally that was held on Thursday afternoon.
"So why don't they build more buildings? That's the solution," Pacheco said.
"We need to restore the vacant unit readiness, which is a $31 million program that the mayor cut. NYCHA is sitting on 3,900 vacant units they say are too expensive to repair.," said City Councilmember Alexa Aviles, chair of the Public Housing Committee. Participants at the rally told CBS2 the goal is to get people off the streets and out of city shelters and then to save for housing environments.
"How long will NYCHA be able to sustain hundreds of thousands of people not paying rent right? So we need a solution," Aviles said.
