Esposito says FDNY has much work left and raises concerns with Intro 990
Esposito says FDNY will work night and day to improve response times and appreciates the committee's attention. He says FDNY understands Intro 990's intent but believes the likely volume of notifications may not provide useful information, while remaining open to discussion.
We know that we have a lot of work to do.
Addressing this challenge is something we will be working literally night and day to improve.
I know that rising response times is a concern for this committee as well, and I am appreciative of all of the attention that you've given to it.
Regarding Introduction 990, we understand and appreciate the intention of the bill.
As written, we don't believe that the likely volume of notifications that would result would necessarily provide useful information to New Yorkers.
However, we are open to further discussion and exploring ways to provide more real-time information to New Yorkers on this topic.
