I dunno man I think it wouldn’t be a good idea for the Democrats to vote for a Republican permitting reform bill a month before the Republicans are about to get wiped out in the midterms. Like maybe wait to see if you win the Senate and then you can draft your own bill?

Thank you @nysfocus.com and @colinreports.bsky.social for writing this very clear and helpful article on National Grid’s incredibly unusual and suspect “rate freeze” petition

www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/09/10/n... I’ve only tangentially been following the bus electrification issue, but was there ever any consideration at the MTA for setting up a trolley bus system versus procuring battery buses? @jmartineznyc.bsky.social

Shoutout to @thecityreporter.nyc and perhaps @rachelholliday.bsky.social for today’s note in the City Scoop about the Brooklyn Library craft library! The Cricut Maker already has 77 holds 🫪

I am just dumbfounded by this framing
With President Donald Trump is skipping the 25th anniversary ceremony of 9/11 and, Republicans and the relatives of some victims demanding New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to stay away, tomorrow’s ceremony is shaping up less as a truce than as a partisan stage, Politico New York reports.

Genuine lol in this morning’s @hellgatenyc.com newsletter
“He spent a lot of time looking down at it, watching the cranes and derricks and earth-moving machines…in the giant trench being cut through mile after mile of densely packed houses," biographer Robert Caro writes. "'And I'll tell you,' says one of the men who spent a lot of time at the old hotel with him, 'I never saw RM look happier than he did when he was looking down out of that window.'"

CARAVANSERAI VOLUME 2 ISSUE 12: Natural monopolies in our utilities may be inevitable, but our piecemeal approach to managing them need not be. Our three writers build an agenda for greater public investment into critical utility infrastructure: caravanseraiforum.substack.com/p/monopolies...

Deregulation doesn’t create infrastructure.
How should the state better govern and regulate so-called natural monopolies?

Some good stuff in here, but I think it’s worth clarifying that the pipe replacement discussed in the piece is focused on leak *prone* pipe, not actively leaking pipe. Pipes can be leak-prone based on their age and material (cast iron, unprotected steel, certain old plastics, etc)

When a Rate Freeze Is a Rate Hike in Disguise
Utility watchdog Jamie Van Nostrand argues that National Grid’s recent “rate stabilization proposal” is a way to charge customers more money while bypassing the regulatory process.
