Councilmember Kristy Marmorato's Weekly Newsletter

Councilwoman Kristy Marmorato

Dear Neighbors,

This week, we continued to support our community through several events and food giveaways!

We hosted another beautiful street co-naming ceremony honoring Suzanne Arlak, and provided fresh produce and meals to our seniors and friends at Pelham Parkway Houses, Throggs Neck Houses, 3555 Bruckner Blvd., Throggs Neck BID, and Edgewater Park. Our team was also honored to collaborate with the NYPD 49th Precinct for their Domestic Violence Giveaway.

This weekend, we kicked off Italian Heritage month with our Columbus Day celebrations! On Friday, we marked the 48th Annual Morris Park Columbus Day Kickoff Party, celebrating our Italian-American Heritage and Community. Sunday witnessed another successful Morris Park Columbus Day Parade!

In this week's newsletter, you will find details about the district events that took place this week, along with information about various upcoming events we have planned.

It is an honor to represent you in the New York City Council and to continue fighting to keep our community safe, healthy, and prosperous!

Sincerely,

Councilwoman Kristy Marmorato

District 13, Bronx
