Newark Mayor Ras J. Baraka announced the agreement in a news release Monday, saying that the two cities will work together to resolve the issue."So far, we've gotten much of what we asked for and we look forward to continue to work collaboratively with New York City to improve the quality of life for their S.O.T.A. recipients," said Mayor Baraka.
The two cities will work together to inspect living conditions and charge the landlords for any violations, the release said. But a spokesperson for Mayor Bill de Blasio said that there are more details to be worked out between the cities."This Administration wholeheartedly believes that people have the right to a roof over their heads and to choose where they want to live," de Blasio Press Secretary Freddi Goldstein told CNN.
