311 used to work well! In ~2010ish I called 311 to plant a tree in front of my parents house, parks department had to remove the 80 year old tree that was there originally. Parks planted a BEAUTIFUL serviceberry tree within 2 weeks of my 311 call. The tree fell in a storm last year, I called 311 to plant a new tree, they still haven’t planted a new tree.

The city is GROSSLY understaffed right now (check out the job openings). 311 is no longer helpful.

Imagine ever bill that sits on the governors desk going into effect if they didn’t sign it? I bet cuomo wishes he used that excuse for the bail laws lol.

If Kathy Hochul doesn’t sign the bill before the end of the bill becomes dead. They can’t undo a non-vote by a vote because the session ends December 30th. It wouldn’t be veto, it would just die.

I’m in little Italy close to Houston and I hear the sirens but didn’t hear the explosion

This exact situation happened to my friend years ago. I want to say it took ~5 years to settle with the MTA. Maybe it was more like 4 years. They refused to provide the camera footage from the bus. If you are patient it’s worth it. Personal injury lawyers work on contingency so they’ll take 30% of your cut. Also helps if you have health insurance because a lawyer will want you to go to lots of follow up doctors appts.
