Williams on geographical analysis of enforcement and revenue

And just to go back to equitable enforcement, because you answered that question by primarily talking about workers, but businesses.

So has DCWP conducted any geographical or demographical analysis?

of where violations, inspections, and enforcement actions are concentrated citywide.

And so that's what I'm talking about.

I see.

I apologize.

For me, because I think about budget equity, we're in a budget hearing, what I want to know, and I'm always interested in, is where is the city also generating revenue?

Yes.

Are you only generating revenue in certain communities over others?

And so that is sort of the source of my first question, coupled with the other one about if you have any geographical or demographical analysis of where violations are occurring across New York City.

I don't have it at my fingertips.

I do believe we have pretty good analyses of where we're seeing violations throughout the city.

But I also want to be clear and repeat what I said earlier.

I don't believe in gotcha enforcement, especially with small businesses.

We've seen an exodus of small businesses last year under the final year of the Adams administration.

We're really trying to reverse that.

I was very proud that Mike's team, the general counsel team, returned more than half a million dollars to immigrant-owned small businesses, first enforcement action in our history to do that, who were ripped off by Hungry Panda, a delivery app.

So I'm happy to get you additional data on where our enforcement is.

Yes, I would love to ask DOT a similar question.

Like, if you do have a map.

Of where you're primarily finding certain businesses across New York City.

That would be helpful.

Thank you.

I'm happy to see what we can get you on that.

I think we do have that.

We will follow up.

Okay, great.

Councilmember Banks.
