It's clear its bureaucracy is mired in its own politics and not functional on the most basic of a level working boilers providing heat and hot water. But 328 Developments are not sustainable as they age out and fail. The situation is a hot potato with solutions not all parties will like, but at some point new ideas and actions are required.One thing is clear Federal Funds are not on the Horizon and NYC Middle Class Taxpayer not willing to foot the bill when they are paying more than 30% of income on housing electricity not included. The Projects are truly the Land that Time Forgot but are they destined to be ruins like forgotten Mayan cities?

That's the part that's even sadder. WE ASK FOR IT! We ask for it! We poison the kids. We don't make repairs. We don't give a damn. We vote for the system that keeps problems like this from getting solved, And this is supposed to be progressive government. cmarrtyyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06948995395819496180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-18104341416886574522018-11-21T15:09:00.436-05:002018-11-21T15:09:00.436-05:00WTF is wrong with this city, that they can't e...WTF is wrong with this city, that they can't even deliver the most basic of needs: HEAT during the winter to NYCHA tenants?<br /><br />Turn off the heat in Gracie Mansion until NYC gov't gets a grip on this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-71383507965860790122018-11-21T14:47:40.531-05:002018-11-21T14:47:40.531-05:00This problem began long before Comrade de Blasio. ...This problem began long before Comrade de Blasio. The only way to solve it is to de-communize this housing stock by allowing the tenants to become owners with permanent property tax abatements. They would be responsible for fixing and maintaining all the infrastructure, including boilers. This would incentivize them to maintain their property and keep the bad people out, including those with guns. It would also get them off the backs of the long-suffering tax payers. This property was constructed when--when LBJ was dropping Agent Orange in Vietnam? Lying Badass Jackass.

Combine this with the NYCHA lead paint poisoning of children on a laege scale and the coverup and false info provided to HUD by top level NYCHA administrators and you have what I believe to be a federal criminal RICO conspiracy case involving a large number of people. The buck for all this stops on the mayor's desk.
