Remote Public Info Session on City of Yes for Economic Opportunity

Our local businesses are the lifeblood of our neighborhoods. They need clear and sensible rules that give them the flexibility to change and grow – especially as our city recovers from COVID-19. City of Yes Economic Opportunity is a proposal to update zoning regulations that affect businesses across the city to promote an equitable and resilient economy for all New Yorkers.

The proposal seeks to support small businesses and entrepreneurs by removing outdated limitations on businesses and ensuring that local retail streets and commercial centers across the city can remain lively places that sustain our neighborhoods.

Learn about our initiative to modernize NYC’s zoning rules to promote small businesses, thriving commercial corridors and retail streets, and an equitable, resilient economy for all New Yorkers.

There will be a presentation and Q&A. Interpreters will be available for American Sign Language, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Spanish.
