“Shortly after Adams made the move, an amendment to the capital plan adding $1 billion was approved automatically because none of the review board members intervened.”
Imagine that.

There is definite blind hate here cause this seems fine to me. The article even says government transparency groups encouraged both the governor and mayor to serve on the board. I think the bigger question may be why does this board exist to begin with when the MTA already has a board?

Woah this guy has a twin!?
_Maxolotl t1_j93wa0o wrote
Yes. The true conspiracy theory about Adams is that he's actually twins.
The true conspiracy theory about deBlasio is that he was actually Sacha Baron Cohen in disguise the whole time.

My question was more about whether he can get his job done in general without adding yet another thing.
TeamMisha t1_j9213oc wrote
Phrasing my friend! That makes sense but it comes off as "is he allowed to do that" haha
