Flexible Public Transit Service Survey: The Town of Pelham was recently awarded a Clean Mobility Grant through the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). The program aims to increase access to zero-emission, shared transportation options across New York State communities. The Town of Pelham will leverage this opportunity to develop a plan for adding an electric, flexible public transit service to the current transit network. This new service may provide flexible public transit vehicles at common pick-up/drop-off points or allow for scheduled home pick up with electric cars, minibuses, small shuttles, vans, or other options. Your feedback will help inform the design of a flexible transit service for all Town of Pelham visitors and residents. Please click the link below to complete a 10-minute survey, and help shape the future of transportation in the Town of Pelham. Thank you for your participation, we value your insights!   Survey Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScXYogLhm4Qvf1W5bm0wDmFHE132U0SzQFqObBSgbXCqerQug/viewform?usp=preview

Message from Congressman Jamaal Bowman

Dear neighbor, 

In response to Hurricane Ida, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is able to provide federal relief to individuals, households, businesses, schools, non-profits, and localities in our district. This assistance was made possible by President Biden’s approval of Governor Hochul’s request for a Major Disaster Declaration, something my office strongly supported. I am inviting you to join me for a Virtual Town Hall on FEMA and Local Resources this coming Tuesday, September 14th at 6 p.m. ET to learn more about these resources. 

I will be joined by the representatives below to discuss local resources, individual assistance, and public assistance: 
  • Dennis Delborgo – Director of the Office of Emergency Management (OEM) for Westchester County, New York
  • Yokarina Duarte – Director for Intergovernmental Relations, NYC Office of Emergency Management 
  • Stephanie Dunn Ashley – American Red Cross Metro New York North
