Quality of Life

Cleaning Up Our Streets

Dirty streets are a serious public health problem. As well as being unpleasant for residents and visitors, a run-down appearance encourages vandalism and abuse. The Jackson Heights Beautification Group has been a leading voice in illustrating this problem. As your city council representative, Daniel Dromm will fight to secure funding that would allow the Department of Sanitation to double the number of pick-ups in the commercial district. He will also be instrumental in getting a Business Improvement District for 73rd and 74th Streets. We live in a beautiful neighborhood; we deserve adequate city services to keep it that way.

Increasing Noise Enforcement

As the area’s population grows and produces ever more vehicles, electronic gadgets, and other sound sources--noise is becoming a more pressing problem. Certain sound exposures are not only annoying but can also produce a range of adverse physiological effects and affect learning ability.

Our area is somewhat unique in the level of noise pollution residents experience. We have jet engines, car horns, booming sound systems from cars, truck engines idling, elevated train tracks and large air conditioning units which create decibels that are unacceptable in any environment.

As you city council representative, Daniel Dromm will enact legislation to double the number of noise enforcement officers in the city. He will direct the Department of Environmental Protection to conduct a study on the causes of noise pollution in our areas and to identity solutions to address it. Residents deserve to live in peace and quiet. With your help, Dromm will make this a reality.
