    Statement from Borough President Vito Fossella on Victory for Staten Island in St. John Villa Lawsuit Decision
    A Statement from Borough President Vito Fossella On Victory for Staten Island in St. John Villa Lawsuit Decision Finally, some common sense. We commend the Honorable State Supreme Court Justice Wayne Ozzi for his decision in favor of our lawsuit. This decision is a victory for the residents of Arrochar and, frankly, all Staten Islanders. We believe the City acted improperly in placing a migrant shelter within the heart of Arrochar, a low-density residential community and across the street from a Pre-K-12 school. It is refreshing to know that there are jurists in our system, like Judge Ozzi, who understands our concerns with having migrant shelters placed within residential areas. We urge the City to relinquish using St. John Villa as a migrant shelter and make good on its earlier, more appropriate promise to develop a school at the site, so that the homeowners in Arrochar and the schoolchildren of St. Joseph Hill and P.S.39 to get can back to normal.

    Look who came to visit us at Borough Hall yesterday! We were grateful to have @DrMarionWilson and her @NYCSchools team for a meeting to discuss current and future projects for the borough that will positively impact all SI students. Stay tuned for what's next in education.

    This morning, Vito announced a safe place to play for the students at @Lighthouse_78. Through a collaboration with @nycparks, @statenislandda, and @csd31si the school children will now have a secured place for recess in the adjacent playground during the school day.

    An old friend stopped by to say hello. Former Borough President and newly appointed NYC Buildings Commissioner, @HeyNowJO , was kind enough to pay a visit. We are both committed to getting things done for Staten Island and New York City.

    Today we remember the 6 million Jews who were killed during the horrific acts of genocide that came to end on January 27, 1945, with the liberation of the Auschwitz- Birkenau camp.

    On this #ArborDay, we celebrate the beauty and benefits of trees on Staten Island. Watch this video from last week's Earth Day visit to High Rock Park - a gem in the @sigreenbelt.

    I commend Mayor Adams and Chancellor Banks for lifting the vaccine mandate for public school proms. This will allow students the opportunity to enjoy their once-in-a-lifetime prom festivities.
