His administration is up to 12 executive orders so far, a much more rapid pace than predecessors.
Executive order 3 from Jan 1: “Revitalizing the Mayor’s Office To Protect Tenants” (an office created in 2019, defunded by Adams)
Executive order 4: Task force (acronym: LIFT) to look at all city owned or city associated land to find space for at least 25000 housing units to be built over the next decade. The task force is supposed to find the opportunities within 100 days.
Executive order 5: Task force (acronym: SPEED) to find bottlenecks in the city’s notoriously arduous permitting and approval processes. Fixes to be recommended within 100 days.
Executive order 8 from Jan 4: Rental Ripoff hearings. Opportunities for tenants and advocacy groups to speak out about different issues (negligent and abusive practices). Goal is to find out what are the issues that tenants are facing and propose solutions, either in the form of improved enforcement of existing legislation, or adding new legislation.
Some of the other executive orders deal with junk fees, subscription traps, city’s failing criminal justice and shelter systems.

Nice work so far. Thanks for summarizing for us.
Thank you. I really hate this trend of a video when a few paragraphs would do it.
