Hochul is predicted to announce a plan to restrict embattled New York Metropolis Mayor Eric Adams’ authority and appoint a deputy inspector to supervise his workplace and affairs amid his corruption case controversy, in accordance with a supply aware of the governor’s plans.
Adams first obtained a query about the way forward for congestion pricing after the U.S. Division of Transportation pulled its approval of this system, and the mayor deflected earlier than a spokesperson stepped in.
“Sorry, just to be clear, again, we do this one more time, we’re going to end the press conference. Any questions about the Bronx or the community,” mentioned his spokesperson.
“Mayor, we’re talking about a big multi-agency initiative and an important one, are you concerned about any limits to your power would stop you from running the city like this?”
“Alright guys, thank you, ridiculous, nothing about the Bronx, thank you guys,” mentioned his spokesperson ending the press convention.
Adams smiled, and walked off stage, giving a two-thumbs-up signal as Alicia Keys’ “Empire State of Mind” performed on audio system.
