On Friday August 28, 2015, the Center for New York City Law at New York Law School hosted the 127th City Law Breakfast.  The speaker was Carl Weisbrod, Chairman of the City Planning Commission.

Chairman Weisbrod was welcomed by Anthony Crowell, Dean and President of New York Law School and introduced by Ross Sandler, Professor of Law and Director of the Center for New York City Law.  Chairman Weisbrod discussed the progress made on Mayor Bill de Blasio’s affordable housing plan, and also addressed the coming implementation of the City’s Zoning for Quality and Affordability plan.  The commissioner emphasized the plan will help developers achieve the maximum affordable units allowed by law without increasing the number of market rate units and took questions from the capacity audience.
