Brooklyn City Council member and public advocate candidate Bill de Blasio believes the current city government has been too quick to greenlight plans by private developers, he said on WNYC’s Brian Lehrer Show. De Blasio said there also has not been enough of an effort to create affordable housing at Atlantic Yards and other projects. He said he would use the public advocate’s seat on the City Planning Commission to change the city’s development policies.
