Register of Community Board Budget Requests

This dataset reports each of the projects and programs requested by the City’s 59 community boards. The Register is the charter mandated product of a dynamic and cyclical budget process for the 59 community boards. The community boards consult with agencies on the capital and expense needs of the district. After consulting, each community board develops and votes separate priorities for up to 40 capital and 25 expense budget requests which the agencies review and respond to in the Register of Community Board Requests for the Preliminary Budget in January. The Mayor’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) reviews these same budget requests and updates the responses for the Executive and Adopted Budgets. This dataset is updated three times per year after publication of the Preliminary, Executive and Adopted Budget, usually in January, April and June respectively.

Request
Renovate or upgrade existing precinct houses
Explanation
Due to multiple issues with the old structure our officers require a larger, cleaner/healthier & efficient space to work in. In past years, our officers have had numerous floods in their locker rooms from sewage backup during rain. The building was scaffold for approximately 5 years due to deterioration. Our current structure is too small for the number of officers our district requires. The 5x5 rooms must be share with multiple users. The building itself is out dated and it would cost more to update versus a reconstruction. With the massive increase in residents and expansion in night life our district requires more manpower. There is no space in the building as it exists to accommodate additional staff we need. When this structure is built parking needs to be considered in the plan.
Response
The agency recommends funding this budget request, but at this time the availability of funds is uncertain. OMB supports the agency's position.

Request
Repair or build new seawalls or bulkheads
Explanation
Socrates Sculpture Park located at 32-01 Vernon Boulevard, Long Island City is a community engaged waterfront park. Artists create and have presentations of their works in a public art space. Socrates Sculpture Park was a waterfront landfill and illegal dumpsite until 1986 when a coalition of artists and community members converted it into an open studio and exhibition space for artists. Today, Socrates is an internationally renowned outdoor museum and a designated New York City public park. The seawall is in need of dire repair. These repairs must be made to protect the works of art displayed at the space. Water damage to the space would be catastrophic.

Request
Repair or build new seawalls or bulkheads
Explanation
Whitey Ford Field is a Baseball Field located at 26th Avenue & 2nd Street, Astoria on the Hallet's Point Peninsula. The Park has undergone a major overhaul that included new bleachers and fences, the re-sodding of the grass and the construction of a new baseball dugout. Whitey Ford was an Astorian who, after signing with the Yankees in 1947, was a Cy Young Award winner, and six-time World Series Champion & known as one of the greatest pitchers in Yankee History. In August 2000, this field overlooking the East River with a magnificent view was dedicated in his honor. The ball field is highly utilized and requires the seawall repair to protect the investment made in upgrading this immensely utilized park. Every effort must be made to provide, protect and maintain waterfront access areas.
Response
OMB supports the agency's position as follows: This should be referred to NYC DPR as it is a Park property issue.

Request
Improve access to a park or amenity (i.e. playground, outdoor athletic field)
Explanation
Establish Waterfront Access Along North Shore of CD 1 at Luyster Creek (19th Avenue & 37th Street) for Community Use. This is a wonderful space that would have a terrific impact on the community by providing more nature/waterfront access. With the lack of green space this will enhance waterfront access for the community. This location will bridge two local development projects and requires the city to take a deep dive into its possibilities. Many flock here to bird watch. The space requires rejuvenation.
Response
OMB supports the agency's position as follows: The Department of Parks and Recreation does not maintain this facility.
