Dear Neighbors,
This week, we continued our commitment to supporting our community by c Co Sponsoring a Family Day, attending a Shredding Event, giving away produce, and noticing important cases in D13. It is always a joy to engage with our amazing community and ensure we keep providing valuable events that meet the needs of our constituents.
In this newsletter, you will find details about the district events that took place this week, along with information on various upcoming events we have planned.
It is an honor to represent you in the New York City Council and continue fighting to keep our community safe, healthy, and prosperous!
Sincerely,
Councilwoman Kristy Marmorato

Shredding Event in D13! July 23rd, 2025
 |
What an incredible morning it was last Wednesday!
Our shredding event was a tremendous success, and we’re so grateful to everyone who came out to safely dispose of their sensitive documents. 
Your participation made all the difference!
A huge shoutout to NYC Sanitation for partnering with us to make this community-focused event possible. 
Your support helps us promote sustainability and protect personal information at the same time.
We truly love seeing our district come together for events like this — it’s a reminder of the power of community and collaboration. Here's to more great events ahead!
Produce Giveaway at Throggs Neck Houses
 |
We’re keeping the momentum going with another successful fresh produce giveaway last Wednesday at the Throggs Neck Houses! 
Just because it’s summer doesn’t mean we slow down — our team is out in the community, making sure families in District 13 continue to have access to healthy, nutritious food.
We know how important fresh produce is, especially during these warmer months, and we're committed to meeting our neighbors where they are and showing up with support that matters.
A big thank you to our incredible volunteers and partners who help make these events possible — your dedication makes all the difference.
Stay tuned — we’ve got more to come! 
Horticultural Society at Morris Park Bid
 |
Proud to support The Horticultural Society of New York during their routine maintenance visit at the Morris Park BID here in District 13! Thanks to the funding we’ve successfully secured, we’re able to invest in cleaner, greener, and more welcoming public spaces for our community. These beautification efforts not only enhance the look and feel of our neighborhoods — they also foster pride, safety, and a stronger sense of belonging. We’re committed to ensuring that every corner of District 13 reflects the care and attention our residents deserve. Huge thanks to The Horticultural Society of New York for their continued partnership and dedication to keeping our community vibrant! Bally's Bad Bet July 26th, 2025
I stood with my community to say no to Bally’s. No real benefits. No real economic development. The Bronx deserves better than a casino deal that helps developers, not families. Read my op-ed in the Daily News:
On Sunday, we were proud to co-sponsor the incredible Throggs Neck Family Day — a celebration of community, connection, and summer fun right here in the heart of District 13! It was a joy to see so many families, friends, and neighbors come together to enjoy music, games, food, and activities for all ages. Events like this remind us of the importance of creating spaces where everyone feels welcome and included.
A heartfelt thank you to all of our amazing partners, dedicated staff, and enthusiastic volunteers who helped bring this event to life. Your hard work made it possible to keep the day fun, free, and open to all members of our community. Here’s to more days filled with joy and togetherness across our district! D13 Case Highlights
We’d like to extend our sincere thanks to DOT for their continued efforts to improve infrastructure and safety throughout District 13. Their commitment to maintaining and enhancing our local transportation network plays a vital role in the daily lives of our residents — and we’re grateful for their partnership and responsiveness to our district’s needs.
Thank You to ACE for Keeping District 13 Clean! A big thank you to the hardworking team at ACE for their ongoing cleanup efforts throughout District 13. From sweeping sidewalks to removing litter and debris, ACE’s dedication to keeping our neighborhoods clean and well-maintained makes a real difference in the daily lives of our residents. We’re proud to partner with organizations like ACE that not only beautify our community but also provide meaningful employment opportunities to New Yorkers working to rebuild their lives. Thank you, ACE, for your commitment to District 13! What's Happening in D13? Veterans Services
