The City Planning Commission voted to approve Mayor Eric Adams' City of Yes for Housing Opportunity plan aiming to tackle the housing crisis and homelessness in NYC.
While scrutiny over Mayor Adams' administration continues, City Hall believes it won't affect the housing plan's success, which aims to update restrictive zoning rules.
Adams emphasized the urgency of the housing situation, stating, 'People need housing,' urging councilmembers to vote with their conscience regarding the proposal.
With nearly 1,400 pages of annotated draft text, the plan has received favor from four borough presidents and a majority of community boards, signaling significant support.
