Addabbo: We can't forget about quality of life issues during quarantine
Senator Joseph P. Addabbo, Jr.
May 5, 2020
While New York City and our State are focusing on the COVID-19 pandemic, State Senator Joseph P. Addabbo, Jr. wants to remind governmental offices that we must not lose sight of quality of life concerns during this time.
Although many government agencies have depleted staff due to the state’s social distancing orders, Addabbo has been working with the National Parks Service and the NYC Department of Sanitation (DSNY) to clean up problem areas throughout his district.
“I have heard from some of my constituents that there has been an increase in garbage piling up at Charles Park in Howard Beach, and I have been in touch with the National Parks Service to get that situation remedied,” Addabbo said. “I also contacted the DSNY regarding a burnt, abandoned car that needs removal within the district. I appreciate the efforts of all our government workers, as they perform their duties and maintain a work standard with a much depleted staff. While we are all responsibly quarantining, we cannot forget about the quality of life for our constituents. I will continue to work with our dedicated government agencies to ensure that our quality of life remains while we fight the Coronavirus and protect New Yorkers.”
