REAL ESTATE -- ZONING IN-"After two peaceful years, de Blasio-Council relationship faces big tests," - from banning horse carriages to regulating ride-hailing apps - appear to be festering, while the Council seems primed to push its own priorities on police reform, regardless of the mayor's opposition. And on affordable housing, the Council will get the last word on elements of a policy central to the mayor's political identity."
The Fight to Continue 421-a is About Union Wages Not About the Gentrification Damage the Program Does to Affordable Housing and Homeless
NYT Ignored How Glenwood's 421-a Fueled Gentrification Pushing New Yorkers Out of Neighborhoods
Glenwood Own NY's Pol, Not the Voters Who Put Them In Office
The biggest beneficiary of Glenwood’s giving: Mr. Cuomo, who, in the last election cycle, received more than $1 million from limited liability companies, or LLCs, connected to the Glenwood-controlled LLCs also gave Senator Skelos’s campaign committee more than $100,000 over the years, as well as donating $10,000 to the 2012 re-election campaign of his brother, Peter Skelos, a State Supreme Court justice in Nassau County New York is run by the Real Estate Board of New York; that organization received more than $150,000 from Glenwood-tied LLCs over the 10 years covered in the printout. (Mr. Litwin and Mr. Dorego have sat on the real estate board’s executive board.)

During that decade, about $700,000 went to the Neighborhood Preservation Political Action Fund, a group linked to the city’s largest landlord group, the Rent Stabilization Association. Glenwood also funneled money to Mr. Cuomo indirectly: On a single day in 2011, 10 of the company’s LLCs combined to give a total of $500,000 to the Committee to Save New York, a group of business interests that spent $16 million to support Mr. Cuomo’s agenda during his first two years in office. Emails entered into evidence at the Skeloses trial provided powerful context for the purpose of Glenwood’s spending. In one email, Glenwood’s chief political strategist, Richard Runes, who testified at Mr. Silver’s trial, wrote to a lobbyist for Glenwood, “Please send me the list of senators Dean asked us yesterday to help before the next filing date.” The lobbyist wrote back with the names of seven candidates and the amounts to be donated, totaling $92,300. The names were forwarded to Mr. Dorego a week later, under the subject line “List from Skelos”; the donations were made. Several weeks earlier, Mr. Runes had written to Mr. Dorego with a similar request, seeking $100,000 for the New York State Senate Republican Campaign Committee, $30,000 for Mr. Skelos’s campaign committee and more than $50,000 divided among five other candidates. A copy of a printout of the email listed the individual LLCs that ultimately made the donations.
