By replacing the aging network of public pay telephones with state-ofthe art public connection points, the city aims to transform the physical streetscape—and New Yorkers’ access to information—while also creating new local jobs for the development, servicing and maintenance of the structures. “This administration has committed to making New York City work better for every community, and this RFP for free outdoor Wi-Fi is a down payment on that promise,” said Mayor Bill de Blasio. “For years, the question was, ‘What to do with payphones?’ and now we have an answer. By using a historic part of New York’s street fabric, we can significantly enhance public availability of increasingly-vital broadband access, invite new and innovative digital services, and increase revenue to the city—all at absolutely no cost to taxpayers.” “The release of this RFP is the result of a series of initiatives that imagined the future of the payphone, from piloting Wi-Fi hotspots to gathering ideas through a popular design challenge,” added acting -SEE NETWORK ON PG. 59- City Council Member Daniel Dromm recently welcomed Pasang Tsering as the newly appointed member of Community Board 4. Recognizing his strong interest in community service, Dromm nominated him to the position. Board 4 has an important advisory role in matters relating to the community welfare in Elmhurst and Corona. Tsering was born and raised in a Tibetan refugee community in Kathmandu, Nepal. In 2011, he immigrated to the United States with his family and recently completed his master’s in Public Administration at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, CUNY. While at John Jay, he was an active student leader. Tsering interned at the district and legislative offices of Council Member Dromm and this summer he will be volunteering at the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs.
