A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the purchase of products with recycled content, and to repeal section 6-122 and subchapter 5 of chapter 3 of title 16 of such code.

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Statement of findings and purpose. In almost every category of goods, there are some products that are environmentally preferable to others. In many instances, there is little or no additional cost associated with the environmentally preferable option. For example, there is little cost difference between copy paper with no recycled content and copy paper with thirty percent post-consumer recycled content.

Pursuant to section 6002 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has developed recommended guidelines on the minimum recovered materials content of items purchased by federal agencies and other levels of government that apply more than $10,000 in federal funding towards a purchase. These guidelines apply to products in the following categories: paper; vehicular; construction; transportation; park and recreation; landscaping; non-paper office; and miscellaneous. The minimum percentage of recovered materials recommended for products in these categories is determined and updated periodically through the Federal Register in the form of Recovered Materials Advisory Notices. The EPA conducts an extensive consultation process in setting recovered materials standards.

The Council finds that the purchase of recycled products will protect the environment and improve the welfare of New York City residents and workers. Accordingly, the Council declares that it is reasonable and necessary to require the purchase of products with recycled content.

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter, in relation to requiring the New York city department of education to report on the number of temporary and non-standard classrooms in use in the public school system.

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Legislative findings. New York City public schools have been overcrowded for decades. As a result, at hundreds of schools across the City, the Department of Education has installed "temporary classrooms" or "transportable classroom units." These are semi-permanent, modular buildings designed to provide classroom space cheaply and quickly. Unfortunately, many of these temporary classrooms have become permanent fixtures in their schoolyards. The Department has insufficient funds to replace them with proper school buildings, and, therefore, many of these structures have remained in use for decades.

These temporary classrooms are undesirable for many reasons. They are often poorly heated, ventilated and lit. They isolate children from their school communities and take up space that is needed for playgrounds and athletic facilities.

In addition to installing temporary classrooms, the Department, in response to overcrowding, has converted non-classroom space within existing school buildings to classroom use. As a result, many students attend class in converted offices, bathrooms, basements, and other spaces that were not designed to be classrooms. These spaces often lack sufficient natural light, and are laid out in a manner that is far from ideal. Some of these spaces likely do not meet minimal standards for appropriate classroom design. Furthermore, in the most overcrowded schools, the elimination of libraries, laboratories, art rooms, auditoriums and other spaces in order to provide classroom space deprives children of fundamental, important aspects of their education.

Although the Department of Education has for years promised to eliminate the use of temporary and non-standard classrooms, it has been slow to do so. The public is not aware of the scope of these problems, as parents are generally only familiar with their children's schools. Therefore, public pressure to improve these substandard classrooms has not reflected the level of public dissatisfaction with such facilities. The Council finds that the Department's efforts to eliminate temporary and non-standard classrooms would be aided by the annual public disclosure of the number of such classrooms.

§ 4. This local law shall take effect immediately after its enactment into law.

Int. No. 552-A

By Council Members Moskowitz, the Speaker (Council Member Miller), Gennaro, Quinn, Baez, Brewer, Comrie, Fidler, Gentile, Gerson, Koppell, Liu, Martinez, Nelson, Recchia Jr., Reed, Sears, Stewart, Weprin, DeBlasio, James, Barron, Perkins, McMahon, Reyna, Monserrate, Vallone Jr., Yassky, Gioia, Sanders Jr., Katz, Lopez , Palma, Jackson and The Public Advocate (Ms. Gotbaum)

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the purchase of green cleaning and other custodial products.

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Statement of findings and purpose. The Council finds that there are environmentally preferable alternatives to the products that we commonly use for routine tasks, such as cleaning and maintaining interior building finishes. Such alternatives are most beneficial to those who apply them and those who occupy buildings where such products are used. In addition to the federal government, a number of state and local jurisdictions have taken steps to purchase environmentally preferable or "green" cleaning products.

The Council finds that the purchase and use of many such environmentally preferable cleaning alternatives will result in improved indoor air quality and enhanced environmental health.

§ 2. This law shall be known and may be cited as the "Greening Our Cleaning Act".

§ 3. Green cleaning product pilot program.

At a minimum, general-purpose cleaners, bathroom cleaners, glass cleaners, carpet cleaners, floor finishes, floor strippers and air fresheners shall be included in the pilot program if used by the city and disinfectants, sanitizers, graffiti removers, metal cleaners, furniture polishes and degreasers shall be considered for inclusion in such program.

d. For each product category included in the pilot program, the director shall establish health and environmental criteria for selecting products to be tested and evaluated in the pilot program. The following may be considered in establishing such criteria:

(1) any available scientific evidence;

(2) any specifications, guidelines or rules of other governmental agencies or jurisdictions, or organizations supporting the establishment of environmental purchasing standards;

(3) whether such products contain any known respiratory irritants, mutagens or petrochemical-based fragrances, are produced from bio-based materials, or are sold in containers that reduce worker exposure to the chemicals contained therein; and

(4) any other matter determined by the director to be relevant to determining such health and environmental criteria.

e. The director shall select environmentally preferable cleaning products in each product category for inclusion in the pilot program that meet the criteria established pursuant to subdivision d of this section.

f. The director shall select an appropriate, representative sample of facilities, or portions thereof, owned by the city within which to implement the pilot program.

g. No later than one year after the date of enactment of this local law, the director shall develop and publish a pilot program plan for the testing and evaluation of environmentally preferable cleaning products, which shall include: the list of products in each category to be tested and evaluated in the pilot program; testing and evaluation guidelines for such products; the facilities, or portions thereof, designated for inclusion in such pilot program; and any other information relating to the pilot program that the director deems appropriate. Immediately upon its publication, such plan shall be distributed to all agencies participating in the pilot program, in addition to the mayor and the speaker of the council. Any update or modification to such plan shall immediately be distributed as described above.

h. The testing and evaluation process of the pilot program shall assess products selected for the program based upon effectiveness, health and safety, costs and savings.

i. No later than three years after the enactment of this local law, the director shall submit a report to the mayor and the speaker of the council, which shall detail the results of the pilot program. Such report shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

(1) a list of the products that were tested and evaluated in each product category;

(2) a description of the pilot program process and how each product category and product was selected for inclusion in the program and tested and evaluated, as applicable;

(3) the health and environmental criteria established for each product category and, where the director has not directed that tested and evaluated products, at a minimum, meet the applicable Green Seal standard for the relevant product category where such a standard exists, with the exception of product packaging and concentrate requirements, an explanation as to why the director has not done so;

(4) the facilities, or portions thereof, in which the pilot program was implemented;

(7) an analysis and conclusion regarding the testing and evaluation of each product with respect to effectiveness, health and safety, and anticipated costs or savings and how such results compare to an assessment of such characteristics for the standard cleaning product used for the same purpose; and

(8) a determination as to the feasibility of using environmentally preferable cleaning products in each of the product categories included in the pilot program citywide in facilities, or portions thereof, owned and/or leased by the city, based upon effectiveness, health and safety, costs and savings of the products in such category. For any facility type or specific application for which the director determines that the use of such products in a specific product category is not feasible, the reasons for such lack of feasibility and all efforts made to successfully use such products in such facility type or application shall be described.

j. The director may, on an ongoing basis, test and evaluate environmentally preferable cleaning products, not limited to the product categories included in the pilot program, to determine the feasibility of using such products by the city.

§ 4. Green cleaning technical advisory committee.

a. A green cleaning technical advisory committee shall be established, which shall provide advice and recommendations to the director for the duration of its term on the green cleaning product pilot program established pursuant to section three of this local law, regarding:

(1) the scope and implementation of the pilot program, including the product categories, products, facilities, or portions thereof, and agencies included in the program;

By Council Members Moskowitz, Baez, Brewer, Fidler, Foster, Gennaro, Gerson, James, Koppell, Liu, Martinez, Nelson, Palma, Sanders Jr., Sears, Vann, Weprin, deBlasio, Jackson and The Public Advocate (Ms. Gotbaum)

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter, in relation to requiring the New York city department of education to report average class sizes in each school to the City Council.

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Legislative findings. For decades, public schools in New York City have been overcrowded. Although class size varies from school to school, some elementary and middle schools have classes in excess of 30 students and some high schools have classes in excess of 35 students. Such class sizes are considered unreasonable by parents, students and educators.

Over the past decades, a variety of means have been tried to reduce class sizes, including hiring additional teachers, building additional school buildings, staggering classes over a dozen or more periods during the school day, and placing class size limitations in the contract between the Department of Education and the United Federation of Teachers. Although some of these measures have been successful, they have not succeeded in reducing class size uniformly, citywide, to acceptable levels.

The Council finds that one reason the Department of Education has been unable to reduce class size to acceptable levels citywide is that the public and policymakers do not have access to accurate and timely class size information. The Council therefore finds that legislation requiring the Department to report such information is necessary to ameliorate this deficiency.

By Council Members Brewer, Boyland, Comrie, Fidler, Gerson, Gonzalez, James, Liu, Nelson, Palma, Recchia Jr., Sears, Weprin, Jackson, DeBlasio and The Public Advocate (Ms. Gotbaum)

A Local Law to establish a temporary advisory committee to advise the mayor and the speaker of the council on issues pertaining to access to broadband technologies within the city of New York.

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. Access to broadband, a high-speed connection to the Internet, is becoming increasingly essential to New York City's residents, not-for-profit organizations, and businesses. Such high-speed connections enable the fast relay of voice and data that many have come to expect. Additionally, broadband connections are necessary for conveying images, sounds and video, all of which require large amounts of bandwidth.

Broadband connections are improving the quality of life across all ages and sectors. Schoolchildren can communicate with their teachers quickly and easily, as well as complete homework projects that involve on-line multi-media educational resources. Home-bound seniors may use broadband to connect with doctors who can relay test results in real time. Broadband also benefits businesses and not-for-profit organizations.

Due to the important role of broadband in the city, the council of the city of New York deems it useful to create a broadband advisory committee to advise the mayor and the speaker of the council on issues pertaining to access to broadband technologies and to gather information and data regarding the needs of residents that access to broadband might be able to address. This local law is in support of the mayor's telecommunications plan and seeks to supplement and not duplicate the findings in the mayor's telecommunications plan or the work of the mayor's telecommunications policy advisory group. The findings of this committee shall be used to inform the agencies implementing the recommendations of the mayor's telecommunications plan and the mayor's telecommunications policy advisory group.

§ 2. Broadband Advisory Committee.

a. There shall be an advisory committee, to be known as the Broadband Advisory Committee, which shall review the ways and methods of using municipal resources to accelerate the build-out of current, emerging and any newly developed broadband technologies and other advanced telecommunications and information services, such as cable, digital subscriber line ("DSL"), broadband over power lines ("BPL"), any other wire-based methods, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, and any other wireless technologies, within the city of New York.

b. The broadband advisory committee shall be comprised of fifteen members, seven of whom shall be appointed by the speaker of the council, and eight of whom shall be appointed by the mayor. The committee shall select a chairperson from among the members of the committee. The members shall be appointed within thirty days of the enactment of this local law and shall serve without compensation. Each member may be removed for cause at any time by the original appointing authority and any vacancy shall be filled in the same manner as the appointment of the departing member was made.

c. The committee shall be deemed established upon the appointment of seven of its members and shall continue until December 31, 2008.

d. The committee shall meet as many times as it deems necessary but in no event shall it meet less often than two times in the first calendar year. The committee shall also hold at least one public hearing in the first year in each borough to educate the public on new technologies and policies and to accept public comment. The committee shall also accept comments received through email and regular mail. Any comments accepted by the committee shall also be made available to the general public by being posted on the city's website. Thereafter, the committee shall meet as many times as it deems necessary but in no event shall it meet less often than two times in the next two years. The committee shall hold at least one public hearing in each borough in the next two years to educate the public on new technologies and policies and to accept public comment. The committee shall continue to accept comments received through email or regular mail, and comments accepted by the committee shall also be made available to the general public by being posted on the city's website.

e. For the purposes of this local law, the presence of seven members shall be deemed a quorum. In the presence of a quorum, any act taken by a majority of those present shall be deemed an act of the committee.

f. The committee shall be comprised of, but not limited to, persons with expertise in the following areas:

1. Business, technology, industrial organization, and economics;

2. The not-for-profit and philanthropic communities;

3. Technology, telecommunications, privacy, antitrust, and information law and regulation; and

4. Such other areas as the appointing authorities deem appropriate.

g. The committee shall report its findings and recommendations to the mayor and the speaker of the council at least once a year. Such findings shall be used to inform the agencies implementing the recommendations of the mayor's telecommunications plan and the mayor's telecommunications policy advisory group. The findings and recommendations shall also be made available to the general public by being posted on the city's website. Such report shall contain, but not be limited to:

1. An identification of the geographic areas of the city where the committee deems broadband technologies and telecommunications and information services are needed and which technologies will best serve these areas;

2. An analysis of the current broadband and other advanced telecommunications and information services market, including, but not limited to, an assessment of current providers' and intermodal competitors' offerings, levels of competition, pricing, innovation, customer service and overall responsiveness to consumer demand; and

3. Recommendations that the mayor and the speaker of the council may implement regarding the mandate set forth in subdivision a of section two of this local law, including, but not limited to, possible incentives for telecommunications companies and broadband service providers to deploy affordable access to broadband technologies and other advanced telecommunications and information services in areas of the city where such technologies are needed.

h. The department of information technology and telecommunications and any other city agency may make available to the committee any relevant information concerning broadband technologies and telecommunications and information services.
