Despite a court ruling this week giving a Billionaires’ Row homeless shelter the green light, the state agency with the power to allow people to move in still refuses to let it open.
The Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance says it is still reviewing the building’s certification, on an application first submitted two years ago — while taking into account a lawsuit brought by the West 58th Street Coalition, which opposes the shelter.
The coalition, represented by former Giuliani administration deputy mayor Randy Mastro and other attorneys, has been appealing directly to state officials and the governor, asking them to not grant the shelter necessary approvals, according to letters obtained by THE CITY.

ReplyDeleteNorthwest Woodsman: Typical Marxist democrat response. Perfectly fine to allow their virtue signaling actions in your neighborhood, but don’t even consider doing it in theirs. Got to love liberals for their entertainment value.
