Williams asks Milstein for Local Law 25 study timeline
Deputy Speaker Nantasha Williams notes the Council reached out twice about her Local Law 25 study and asks for a timeline. Milstein says pieces will come over the course of 2027 and that the city can share updates with the Council as learning progresses.
Deputy Speaker Williams.
Thank you, Chair.
I am looking at your testimony and your comments about the chair's bill was that local law 25, which was my bill, is the study is currently underway.
We reached out, the compliance division of the council reached out, I think twice.
I know it just went into effect in January, but would be helpful to know if you have a timeline.
So I know it might take time, but how much time?
Because clearly I think today's hearing is evidence of the importance of really understanding AI's impact on the municipal workforce.
So just wanted to know if you could share a timeline for us.
I know the comments we received back was just that.
There's no updates, but we haven't received a timeline.
Yeah, thank you for the question, and thank you for the legislation.
I think it's really an important study.
I anticipate that we will have pieces of it over the course of 2027, and we will share updates as we have them.
I think rather, because this is so timely and important, we don't have to just wait till the end.
We can be in partnership with you and rolling out information as we learn more.
Thank you.
I look forward to working with you on that.
Thank you.
