I was deeply disturbed to learn of the shooting incident early Sunday morning that claimed the life of another child in our city. No child in our city deserves to die due to gun violence and no child in our city should possess a fi***rm.

We have a systemic problem in Albany when it comes to young people’s access to guns and we must do everything in our power to combat this problem. Our Police Department, in partnership with Councilmembers, the Mayor’s Office of Violence Prevention, and a host of community partners, are working aggressively to reduce youth violence in our city. The City continues to strengthen investments in the Mayor’s Office of Violence Prevention, ensure our community organizations are coordinated with law enforcement, and increase preventative measures to address youth violence in our city. However, this work cannot be the responsibility of law enforcement, community organizers, or the City of Albany alone.

I am urgently calling on all partners, including our parents and caregivers, to work with us. It will take a coordinated response from all relevant parties to get our young people the support and resources they need to thrive in our city. Our entire city’s thoughts are with the families of the victims of this tragic incident. One death in our city is one too many.

Today’s Times Union article offers an early look at some of the findings from our audit of the Albany for All program.

Later this week, we will release the full audit publicly, including our complete findings and recommendations.

Our team has spent months reviewing records, tracing expenditures and working to provide Albany residents with a clear accounting of how these funds were managed, what obligations remain and where stronger safeguards are needed.

We look forward to sharing our work with Albany residents and continuing the conversation about how we can strengthen oversight within the City of Albany.

"Turning the lights back on in Albany" by taxing the hell out of its residents? Well past time for a GOP administration to fix the sickness the Albany Dems have plagued on our city!

: Albany Mayor Dorcey Applyrs has proposed a 2027 budget that includes a 15% property tax hike. For a $250K home, that's about $23 more a month or $276 a year.

The proposed budget also includes a 0.5% sales tax increase, spending cuts, personnel reductions and millions in state assistance.

NewsChannel 13's Dan Levy is at the mayor's budget presentation and will have more beginning with our noon newscast.

Coincidence that the lobbying firm/affiliates donated thousands to her campaign??? Does anyone hear CORRUPTION?

Mayor Dorcey Applyrs earlier this month hired Albany lobbying firm Brown & Weinraub Advisors to “provide legislative and regulatory representation in New York state.”
