Summary

This bill would require the Department of Social Services (DSS), in collaboration with the Office of Emergency Management (OEM), to annually submit reports on warming centers in New York City to the Mayor and the Speaker of the Council and post such reports on its website. Such reports would include information related to the locations, space types, days and operating hours, number of staff, number of visitors, accessibility and utilization of each warming center operated by DSS or OEM. Reports would also include an assessment of the geographic availability and accessibility of warming centers to vulnerable populations, and recommendations to improve such availability.
