Mamdani Says He’ll Keep Conversations with Trump ‘Private,’ Reminds Property Owners to Clear Sidewalks from Snow

MAMDANI: “You know, I will keep those conversations private. However, what I will tell you is that the conversations that I have had in the past with the president including that at the Oval Office, as he had shared right after, we‘re always focused on New York City and how we can make sure that we are actually helping New York City. And frankly, this emergency snow shovel program is one that allows every single sanitation worker to be on the plows, to be on the salt spreaders, to get this city back up and running. It‘s why they‘ve been able to disperse about 50 million pounds of salt and then these snow shovelers are the ones who supplement the work, frankly, of the department. And what we‘ve seen is here in New York City, as is the law property owners have to clear the sidewalk in front of their property. They have to clear the crosswalk that‘s abutting them. And yet there were about 4000 violations in the last storm of this. Our interest, frankly, is not in issuing violations. It‘s in finding compliance. And so this is also work to assist in that.”
