Lee on Office of Sustainable Delivery status

New York City Council · May 29, 2026 · starts 0:44:06 · 48 sec

Lee asks if the Office of Sustainable Delivery is being eliminated. Forgione confirms the function remains as the Sustainable Delivery Unit, focused on policy and regulatory approaches rather than enforcement.

Linda Lee

Okay, and is the entire Office of Sustainable Delivery being eliminated?

Linda Lee

If not, what positions remain and what will be the scope of the office?

Margaret Forgione

No, we're definitely keeping that function.

Margaret Forgione

I think we've rebranded it as the Sustainable Delivery Unit, as you mentioned.

Margaret Forgione

Still a very important focus area for us to ensure delivery worker safety and safe behavior.

Margaret Forgione

And we're, well, yeah, we could talk more about, I guess, the specific headcount, but basically we're focusing the group more on the policy and regulatory approach needed to get

Margaret Forgione

safer outcomes in the delivery bike space versus an enforcement forward approach.

Linda Lee

Great.
