A LOCAL LAW

To amend the Charter of the City of New York to create a Lower Matthattan/Financial District Redevelopment Commission.

Introduced By the Speaker (Council Member Vallone) and Council Members Berman, O'Donovan and Pinkest

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. On September 11, 2001 the City of

New York suffered an unprecedented loss with the destruction of the World Trade Center

and surrounding buildings. The Council recognizes the importance of the affected area

and the businesses located in the area to the economic well-being of the City. The City

Council hereby finds that such an unprecedented event requires creation of a commission

to focus on the specific needs of the financial district of lower Manhattan and to facilitate

and coordinate the redevelopment and reconstruction of this area, and provide a•ssistance

to businesses located in the affected area.

The Council further finds that the loss, through destruction or evacuation, of more

than twenty-five million square feet of office space in the financial district of lower

Manhattan, presents both short-term and long-term challenges to the City. ,On a short-

term basis, everything must be done to encourage and assist businesses to remain in

dower Manhattan or in other surrounding parts of the City and to provide all necessary

assistants to effectuate relocations of businesses as quickly as possible. The Couucil

further finds that on a longer-term basis, the redevelopment of the area surrounding the

World Trade Center is essential to the long term economic well-being of the City.
