Procedure

Staff continue discussion on penalty payment process

New York City Council · Aug 13, 2026 · starts 0:09:15 · 6 min 38 sec

Staff and Brooks-Powers discuss the organization's need to pay the insurance penalty promptly, with staff offering to help expedite the process once payment is made.

Council Staff

Front row.

Council Staff

So if...

Council Staff

Well, again, remember, it all depends on them now.

Council Staff

I did not part the same day.

Council Staff

Or tomorrow.

Council Staff

Yeah, it'll be fine.

Council Staff

Yeah, but if they, I could help them move that process along.

Council Staff

I just needed to make sure that they're going to make the penalty payment.

Council Staff

If they could do that, I could reach out to the state quicker and they would respond to make sure they are known as a debar.

Council Staff

Because the problem is the debarmers.

Selvena N. Brooks-Powers

They can pay this today.

Council Staff

And she has my number.

Selvena N. Brooks-Powers

Okay, and just let everything go.

Council Staff

And she has my work cell.

Council Staff

Yeah, they just pay for the insurance.

Council Staff

But remember, because the insurance wasn't, they had a lapse in the insurance, they gave them a penalty.

Council Staff

But if they pay the penalty, that's what we need happening.

Council Staff

It's just for them to pay the penalty.

Council Staff

Thank you.

Member of the Public

Yeah.

Member of the Public

I'll make sure I introduce myself to you.

Member of the Public

The money on me.

Member of the Public

I spoke to them.

Council Staff

Thank you.
