Q&A

Schulman asks for definition of encampment and requests information

New York City Council · Sep 30, 2026 · starts 0:28:08 · 41 sec

Schulman asks whether there is a definition of encampment. Morrisroe says 311 provides guidance to call center reps and online, and agrees to share that definition with the committee.

Lynn C. Schulman

Yeah, my questions are more like for NYPD now because your role is your role, so that's fine.

Lynn C. Schulman

Let me ask just one question about...

Lynn C. Schulman

Is there a definition of what an encampment is?

Joe Morrisroe

Thank you for that question.

Joe Morrisroe

We do provide information both for the call center rep and on our website that kind of defines what a committee may look at.

Joe Morrisroe

Can we get that?

Lynn C. Schulman

Can you share that with the committee?

Lynn C. Schulman

Sure, we could.

Lynn C. Schulman

Thank you.

Joe Morrisroe

I can take that and we'll get back to you.

Lynn C. Schulman

That would be very helpful because we get asked questions about that.

Lynn C. Schulman

Yep.

Lynn C. Schulman

All right.

Lynn C. Schulman

Thank you.

Lynn C. Schulman

That's all the questions I have.

Lynn C. Schulman

Thank you.
