Councilwoman Inna Vernikov

Councilwoman Inna Vernikov Inna Vernikov is Councilmember for New York City’s 48th council district. Inna cares about:
1. Inna will support and defend, not defund, the police.
2.

Inna Vernikov is a small business owner and lawyer who grew up being taught the values of integrity and hard work. Her dedication to community service has been acknowledged by the U.S Congress, State Senate and the City Council. As someone who is concerned for the future of New York, Inna believes that progressive policies and anti-police sentiments are threatening our way of life. Coming from the

former Soviet Union, she understands the dangers of government control, and is now standing up to be a voice in the City Council for civil liberties and free-market principles. Defending Law Enforcement- Our current leadership is siding with criminals over hard-working families. Standing Against Homeless Shelters- Inna stands firmly against shelters being built near schools and playgrounds and in areas where they will reduce property values.
3. Standing Up For Merit-Based Education- Inna will fight to restore merit-based admissions to specialized programs.
4. Supporting Small Businesses- As a small business owner, Inna understands what is necessary to create jobs and build a strong economy and will fight for policies that work for and not against our entrepreneurs.

Chair Dinowitz and and I just got off a call with the victim of this antisemitic hate crime. She was pinned to subway floor, choked, and had her hair ripped out. Alvin Bragg, this must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. We are watching!

📣🐦PSA: Don’t feed the pigeons in Asser Levy Park!

In working closely with those in charge of maintaining the 9/11 memorial at Asser Levy Park, we’ve been informed that some park patrons are feeding the birds 🦅 by the memorial. We kindly ask all of you NOT to feed the pigeons at this location, as it attracts RATS 🐀to the area.

Thank you for your cooperation! Enjoy the beautiful weather ☀️🏞️

🏡 🗞️ GREAT News for Homeowners: the NYC Bin 🗑️ reimbursement deadline has been EXTENDED!

I know this was a concern for many around the district. I am proud to have sponsored a bill for free distribution of official bins & advocated for extensions and reimbursements. Shoutout to Minority Leader David Carr, Kamillah Hanks Council Member-D49 and Frank Morano for getting this across the finish line.

UPDATE: DEP Downspout Rule

When DEP notified homeowners in our district that a 2002 stormwater rule requiring downspout disconnection would now be enforced for the first time in over two decades, many were alarmed.

We immediately contacted DEP and advocated for the rule NOT be enforced at this time. It is however a RECOMMENDED step to take to prevent plumbing issues during storms.

Thanks NYC Water and Commissioner Garcia for the quick response!
