Every year community boards across New York City submit a "District Needs Statement", identifying their district's priorities with the hopes of influencing the city budget. @racioppomike.bsky.social writes about the process and highlights our call on @bkcb6.bsky.social for community input.

We want to hear from you! If you live in Brooklyn CB6 (Red Hook, Gowanus, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, Columbia Waterfront) fill out our survey and let us know what you want to see prioritized in this year's district needs statement.

"Housing is the most-pressing crisis facing New York City. The plan delivers up to 6,000 new homes, with 2,650 permanently below market rate at deep affordability levels, including 250 units reserved for NYCHA residents from the surrounding neighborhoods."

Celebrated #CityOfWaterDay w/ the Gowanus Canal Conservancy at Thomas Greene Park! Huge credit & thanks to @bkcb6.bsky.social members Aurelia Casey & Joe Anne Brown for making it happen. It all reinforces why a Gowanus BID will benefit Gowanus’s future. gowanusimprovementdistrict.org

We did it, it's open! I both checked out and returned books today at the new Carroll Gardens popup library. In just 3 months, so many people came together to make this dream a reality and it's a beautiful thing, we've never been more back 🥹
