Con Edison paid $2.6 billion in city property taxes last year and will soon print the share on customer bills; City Hall says it should also print shareholder profits.
Con Edison won permission to spell out the property-tax share of each bill as part of the January rate settlement, and neither Mayor Adams nor Mayor Mamdani objected at the time [32]. Mamdani's office now opposes it, arguing that much of Con Ed's street equipment is assessed by the state, not the city, and that state-approved capital spending is what pushed the assessments up [32]. The Post reports the company is pressing Albany for tax breaks on clean-energy infrastructure [32].
“to really open a conversation about whether the utility bill is the right place to be raising those funds”
“it should also itemize its shareholder profits and other taxes”
Buses coming out of the Lincoln Tunnel now run on West 39th Street to reach the terminal, and the first phase of the $11 billion rebuild runs through the end of 2030.
Since Thursday, buses coming out of the Lincoln Tunnel and off Dyer Avenue leave the ramp system, run along West 39th Street and rejoin it near Tenth Avenue while crews tear down the old ramps [31]. The Port Authority warns of delays, especially at evening rush, and is stationing traffic agents at intersections; the exclusive Lincoln Tunnel bus lane is unaffected [31]. The terminal stays open, and a new storage and staging building will serve as the temporary terminal while the main one is torn down [31].
A Council bill heard Monday would make cooling-tower owners tell the Health Department about Legionella at 10 CFU/mL, not 1,000.
Building owners already have to start disinfecting a cooling tower within 24 hours once Legionella reaches 10 colony-forming units per milliliter, but they only have to tell the Health Department at 1,000 [37]. Council Member Lynn Schulman's bill would require that notice at 10, within 24 hours of the results, and would leave the cleaning rules as they are [37]. It follows this summer's outbreaks on the Upper East Side and in the Bronx, and a May law that moved tower testing from every three months to every 31 days [37].
“We're trying to find ways to lower the opportunity for there to be outbreaks like we experienced this summer and last summer, and this is a tool in the toolbox”

In Tenafly, a homeowner set up skeletons acting out OG Anunoby's Game 4 tip-in, the shot that helped win the Knicks their first title in 53 years [86]. The real banner goes up at the Garden on Tuesday against the Sixers, and the average resale ticket on TickPick runs more than $1,800, the most expensive regular-season game in NBA history [86].
