Today, a diverse coalition anchored by Baldor Specialty Foods, Inc., Hunts Point Produce Market, Fulton Fish Market, Crafted Hospitality, Food Bank For New York City, The Chefs' Warehouse, Wellness in the Schools, Red Jacket Orchards, Wholesome Crave, New York Common Pantry, FreshDirect, Hunts Point Cooperative Market, Acme Smoked Fish Corp, Grovehouse, Food Tank, Pierless Fish Corp and other food industry leaders sent a letter to Governor Hochul to urge New York State to take swift corrective action to avoid the serious unintended impacts of the congestion pricing policy. Tom Colicchio, the chef and owner of Crafted Hospitality summed it up perfectly: "Every restaurant, food bank, hospital, school, grocery store and bodega in Manhattan depends on truck deliveries for their survival. While I support the goals of reducing traffic congestion and improving air quality in Manhattan, it shouldn’t come at a cost to our city’s renowned independent restaurants or hamper New York City’s well-established goals around hunger relief and curbing diet-related disease. Making sure there are commonsense exemptions for essential food service distributors based within the five boroughs and who already pay for the MTA just makes sense."?
