I'm reading the CPC's "Draft of Scope of Work" that they've made accessible to the public in anticipation of the July 31 public hearing. There's a lot I don't like about it, but some of the stuff they're doing (like intense research and the creation of affordable housing) is great. I know that because of the immense scale of their project (2.86 million square feet with 2400 residential units) the city and requires that they do an enormous ammount of research, but read this:
As part of their research on residential displacement, CPC will “identify populations at risk of displacement by determining the portion of the population below the poverty level and the portion with income levels that are lower than the median for Brooklyn, and the portion of the population living in units not protected by rent control, rent stabilization, or other rent regulated programs.”
