Good news: The COPA bill was passed yesterday, but it exempts small property owners and only includes distressed properties or those with expiring affordability mandates.

U.S. Rep. Grace Meng called out the United States Postal Service (USPS) for failing to fully implement its plan to combat mail theft in Queens, according to aThank you. A safe postal system we can trust is fundamental.
Didn't they arrest postal workers for this?
Within days of the padlocks being installed, I saw one that'd been broken, snapped clean through. Not much of a solution.
Dint take care of the thievies
You’re so smart…😂
I watched a video on instagram of a guy following around a ring of guys robbing mailboxes on e-bikes. Interesting a civilian can find the people but NYPD hasn’t
Friggin ridiculous most of the thieves are employees
I've just about given up on the USPS. My mail delivery is OK but I've heard many horror stories.
Finally
She should look in the mirror
Unacceptable… why did it take SOOOO long. You can’t do anything right, you’re incapable, complacent, and quite frankly useless. This makes you unworthy and unqualified. Term limits.
how about putting thief in jail..wow..here is the new idea for you democrat...
It only been going on for almost 5 years 🤨 And her and the rest of the useless politicians tell you it is Federal and they can’t do anything.
Two Maspeth criminals in the country illegally will be getting a one way ticket back home.
So,are they "in custody", or do they have "appearance tickets " The article says both...
Ice unit baby

DSNY Issues Snow Alert for Saturday, December 13 at 7 p.m.
With 1 to 3 inches of snow expected this weekend, New York’s Strongest will begin spreading brine on 700 lane miles of highways at midnight tonight.
The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) has issued a Snow Alert for Saturday, December 13, 2025, beginning at 7 p.m., running through 2 p.m. Sunday. A Snow Alert is the Department’s “higher level” snow-fighting notification, as opposed to the “lower level” Winter Operations Advisory.
Precipitation will begin as early as 9 p.m. Saturday, continuing as late as noon Sunday, with heaviest bands of snow likely to fall Sunday between 1 and 5 a.m. Most forecasts anticipate 1 to 3 inches of snow though, as always, New York’s Strongest remain prepared for any amount of precipitation.
DSNY personnel will activate its GPS room — featuring the new Bladerunner 2.0 tracking operation — this evening to begin highway brining operations. Applying brine before snow begins falling helps reduce accumulations on roadways. In past storms of this nature, DSNY has applied brine to highway ramps and shoulders in anticipation of falling snow. This year, with new investments in brine equipment, the Department will not only apply brine to ramps and shoulders, but also the main beds of all highways – a total of 700 lane miles — starting at midnight tonight.
More than 700 salt spreaders are filled and ready to go, and the Department has approximately 700 million pounds of salt on hand. DSNY will begin spreading salt on roads, highways and bike lanes at the first sign of precipitation, and will begin plowing when and if snow depths reach two inches.
At this time, there is no anticipated change to collection operations Monday, and New Yorkers should continue to follow their regular schedule for trash, recycling, and compostable material unless otherwise notified.
New Yorkers should know: DSNY is working to ensure your safety. Do your part both for yourself and for the Strongest by staying off the roads during active precipitation or, if you absolutely must drive, by doing so slowly, safely and carefully.
In a snow event, New York City’s Sanitation Workers cover our streets, highways and bike lanes, but all residents should remember that clearing snow from sidewalks is the property owners’ responsibility. Property owners must to do their part to make sure that the sidewalks are passable.
All winter weather information and information about the City’s response to the storm can be found by visiting the City’s Severe Weather website at nyc.gov/snow or by calling 311.

In the winter, you can see us spreading salt, plowing, and melting and hauling away snow. But for us, snow response is a year-round process. We plan and organize months before winter weather condition...
