Inquiries or Concerns Call Board Office

Community Board 8, like all the community boards within NYC, has an important advisory role in dealing with land use and zoning matters, the City budget, municipal service delivery and many other matters relating to their communities' welfare. Some of the major issues that Board 8 has addressed in recent years include: the creation of a comprehensive vision for the community through a 197-A Plan;

the rezoning of various areas to prevent development that is out of character with a local area; amendments to the Greenbelt or Special Natural Area District provisions; and the economic revitalization of West 230th Street and Broadway. For more information please send us an email at [email protected] or call us at (718) 884-3959.

The Mayor’s office is pleased to announce the launch of Summer in N.Y.C. This is an interactive website which connects young New Yorkers with free summer programming across the city. Too often, during summer break, young people are left without the activities and support structures that they are provided during the school year. As we know too well, this aimlessness can, and has, result in tragedy. Summer in N.Y.C. provides not just recreational activities, but information about free meals and health services. New Yorkers can access it at https://www.nyc.gov/content/summer/pages/

We take this moment to remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice so we may sleep in peace at night when we lay down our heads. On Memorial Day, we pause to remember the lives behind the courage and the families who supported them.
