    Overview

    • • Mamdani’s team has said that the city has lacked a comprehensive guiding plan for housing development and has relied on fragmented zoning decisions.

    • • The administration will initiate a Comprehensive City Plan to guide housing development across all five boroughs.

    • • The proposal frames the planning process as a way to address racially discriminatory zoning legacies and integrate housing decisions with transit and education needs.
