The staff of P.S. 199Q Maurice A. Fitzgerald in Sunnyside and Community Education Council 24 (CEC 24) were shocked to learn that 37 students, members of 25 families living in City View Inn shelter, located at 33-15 Greenpoint Ave. in Long Island City, were being moved out of their homes and to new locations around the city.
On Feb. 11, CEC 24 held an emergency meeting to discuss the quick removal of the families and recommend to Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Chancellor of New York City Public Schools Kamar H. Samuels and the Department of Homeless Services, currently without a commissioner, to repeal the “60 Day Rule” and prioritize the families’ return to the education district. However, the 60 day rule was not the reason why the families were moved.
