Tuesday, December 17, 2024 · 10:00 AM AM · Committee Room - City Hall

TL;DR

The City Council's Environmental Committee held hearings on New York City's drought conditions and examined three environmental protection proposals. Most items were postponed for further consideration rather than voted on immediately, suggesting the committee needs more time to develop these policies.
