BP Vito Fossella joined Mario Buonviaggio of the Port Richmond North Shore Alliance to call attention to unacceptable conditions in the neighborhood.

Thank you to DSS Deputy Commissioner Jamar Hooks for his cooperation and commitment to addressing this issue. The City has committed to having this location cleaned up by November 2nd!

Let’s get these individuals the help they need while making sure our residents have the clean, safe neighborhoods they deserve.

These conditions are WRONG for Port Richmond and WRONG for Staten Island!

For years, residents near Howland Hook have dealt with trucks backing up traffic and blocking access to their homes. It’s time for a solution.

BP Vito Fossella is proposing turning a vacant Port Authority lot into a truck staging area to help get trucks off neighborhood streets and ease congestion.

A common-sense proposal to address a longstanding problem on the North Shore.
