"The New York Rising Program was essential to my district's post-Sandy recovery. It gave local residents the chance to tell officials what their communities need to be protected from future disasters, and an example of that is these community centers. Within hours of Sandy ripping through my district, my constituents needed information about relief efforts and these proposed community centers would have been extremely helpful after Sandy. Providing my constituents with a central hub to get information on how to protect their quality of life is vital. Howard Beach, Broad Channel and the Rockaways will benefit greatly from this. I look forward to working with the Governor's office and my constituents as this program unfolds and will fight for recovery options for every neighborhood."
