DISTRICT 8 & THE FISCAL YEAR 2014 BUDGET

Dear Constuents and Friends:

This report provides an overview of the Fiscal Year

2014 budget and its impact on our district. As you

will see, through negoaons with the

administraon, the Council was able to avert

addional cuts to crical services for our city.

We again made children our top priority with

restoraons to childcare, aer-school, beacon and

NYCHA Cornerstone programs. And we put

pressure on the Bloomberg administraon to save

all of the NYCHA community centers and senior

centers that had been slated for closure due to

federal cuts. We also kept all rehouses, public

pools and libraries open. We were even able to

make enhancements in key funding areas likesupport for homebound seniors, immigrants and

CUNY students of color.

At the local level, I was able to secure $1 million in

expense and $7.5 million in capital funding for vital

services and upgrades in El Barrio/East Harlem,

Mo Haven and Manhaan Valley, which youll

read more about in the report.

I hope that you will connue to keep up with the

work of my oce by vising our blog(mmviveritod8.wordpress.com), and following up

on Facebook and Twier (@MMViverito).

Have a great summer!

THE CITY COUNCIL MAKES KEY RESTORATIONS

Each year, the City Council has the ability to negoate with the Mayor to put

hundreds of millions of dollars in proposed cuts back into the budget and alsosponsors iniaves which bring addional funding into our communies. This year,

restoring the Mayors cuts to aer school and child care programs were among thetop priories of the Council. Following negoaons, we successfully restored theseservices for tens of thousands of families across the ve boroughs. Melissa ghts

hard every year to ensure that our district get its fair share of citywide funds.

$60 million for Early Childhood Educaon

$72 million for Aer School Programs

Keeping more than 60 NYCHA Senior &

Community Centers open

$106 for Libraries

$32 million to maintain the Citys Parks

RESTORATIONS AT A GLANCE

Melissa tells Oce of Management and Budget Director

Mark Page: When we look at the latest indicators record homelessness and New York City connuing to have

the highest income gap in the naon these cuts toprograms that benet low-income individuals and families

are only going to compound the problem. Were notinvesng in our young people. Unfortunately they are

becoming the sacricial lambs to ineecve budgets andpolicies, and that should not be the case.

Melissa fought to save all

NYCHA senior and communitycenters, which had been slated

for closure. Doing so also saved

325 jobs for NYCHA employees

at these centers.
