AGP Executive Report

Last update: 28 minutes ago

LIRR Strike Fallout: The Long Island Rail Road resumed service in phases Tuesday, ending a four-day strike after a deal between unions and the MTA—though workers say they weren’t told the agreement’s details. Utility Rates: The state Public Service Commission set temporary NYSEG rates starting June 1, lowering the size of the requested increase while the full rate case review drags on. Housing & Schools: Malverne and West Hempstead school budgets cleared voters Tuesday, with modest tax-levy increases. Public Health & Environment: New York lawmakers are pushing to ban intentionally added PFAS, and a separate push would require publicly funded ferry operators to switch to zero-emission vessels over the next decade. Local Life: Route 59 in Spring Valley is set to close after Memorial Day and reopen by Labor Day for bridge work. Sports: Dylan Crews is back with the Nationals, recalled from Triple-A Rochester and back in the lineup vs. the Mets.
