We’re thinking a few more executive orders need to be considered;
- Astoria’s Neptune Diner be relocated to Flushing
- The Newtown Creek be renamed The Gulf of Brooklyn
- The Jets take a new home in a stadium built in the old Flushing Air Field.
- Joey Chestnut banned from participating in the Nathans Hot Dog Eating Contest …. Because there’s no loyalty these days.
One From Adams Too
And while we’re at executive orders, although Mayor Adams is a bit under the weather this week, non-profits, have also been under the gun recently, due to the excessively late reimbursement of funds for city contracts. They are celebrating Adams’ executive order from last week. Each city agency must now designate a chief non-profit officer in order to ‘improve’ services to non-profits. No doubt this move in answer to the concerns of the council reps, who all have been reporting to us that the non-profits in their districts have been desperately calling them to put pressure on the city to get paid. As we have written in this space recently, delaying payments to non-profits been a problem in the past …. usually when the city comptroller is challenging the mayor for his seat, intended to make the mayor look bad.
