There are many reasons I will not vote for Mike Bloomberg but number 1 was his reckless, dangerous tsunami of community crushing development that was way too rapid and dishonest to slow down be transparent, responsible and put the people of New York's safety first.
DOB was one of many City Agencies plus Con Ed that could not keep up and people died and were injuried.
DOB finally starting handing out fines but the city had not collected and let greedy developers and contractors and landlords continueon as usual while if the average NYer did this they would be in jail!
Below a link to my video that relates to this topic. There is a link now to an article that says a council member is pushing a bill to force developers & contractors to pay up or else. I don't understand why we need a bill when in fact isn't it the law. If you don't pay up your fines and you are not rich and connected you go to jail rather continue on with developments all over the city? This was all way too corrupt and done at a lightening pace for that exact reason. I keep thinking of the pension scandal and again where is the accountability? Is the average citizen pulled this crap they would be in jail already?
