Chair Williams announces time limit

New York City Council · Sep 28, 2026 · starts 4:19:55 · 39 sec

Chair Williams announces that the committee must leave the space in an hour and apologizes in advance if they have to enforce time limits strictly.

Nantasha M. Williams

I just want to make a quick announcement that we have to leave this space in an hour.

Nantasha M. Williams

And so this is a proactive apology if we have to really enforce the time.

Nantasha M. Williams

I try my hardest not to, but we're in the field.

Nantasha M. Williams

And so we have to act as guests.

Nantasha M. Williams

We're not in the council.

Nantasha M. Williams

So at City Hall, I just want to say that in advance, our apologies.

Nantasha M. Williams

We know this is very important and we thank you so much for your testimony, but

Nantasha M. Williams

We may need to start.

Nantasha M. Williams

If not, we have to start enforcing the time.

Nantasha M. Williams

Thank you.
