New York City Council overwhelmingly passes Espinal’s Office of Nightlife bill
As expected, the New York City Council approved Councilmember Rafael Espinal’s bill to implement an Office of Nightlife, nightlife director and Nightlife Advisory Board on Thursday.
“NYC’s nightlife culture is an integral part of its identity, yet bureaucratic red tape, rising rents and lack of community planning has made it increasingly difficult for venues that contribute to our iconic nightlife to stay in business,” said Espinal.
“This bill will create a space where all stakeholders can come together to solve conflicts and build bridges.”
