57:38Now PlayingLegislation includes citywide simplification of shelter entry process for domestic violence victims
Mayor Bill de Blasio today signed into law Intro 361-A, in relation to shelter eligibility, Intros 493-A and 356-A, in relation to voter registration, and Intro 216-B, in relation to accessible pedestrian signals.
Intro 361-A, sponsored by Council Member Corey Johnson, requires the Department of Homeless Services to grant a presumption of eligibility for applicants to the shelter systems who are exiting Human Resources Administration domestic violence shelters.
Intro 216-B, sponsored by Council Member Mark Levine at the request of Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer, triples the number of accessible pedestrian signals installed annually by requiring the DOT to increase the number of accessible pedestrian signals installed each year from 25 to 75.
Intros 356-A and 493-A, sponsored by Council members Jumaane Williams and Ben Kallos, codify the reporting requirements of Mayor de Blasio’s agency-based voter registration directive, requiring the Mayor’s Office of Operations to submit a bi-annual report to the City Council, expand the number of agencies required to participate in the voter registration form distribution program, and enhance the responsibilities of participating agencies.
