I'm loving this new development 
! As someone who's lived in NYC my whole life, I've seen those street vendors struggle for years. They're not just peddling wares on the sidewalk, they're providing a vital service to our community. It's about time we give them some much-needed respect and support 
.
I mean, think about it - 20,000+ unlicensed vendors, most of 'em operating in the shadows? That's not exactly what I'd call "quality of life"
. And now, with this new law, they'll get the training, inspections, and oversight they need to operate safely and sustainably. It's about time we got our act together as a city 
.
I'm all for helping these vendors thrive - it's good for business, it's good for the community... and let's be real, it's just plain fair
. I've seen those sidewalks get clogged up with street carts and whatnot, but now we can work towards creating a more harmonious coexistence between our vendors and local businesses 
. Kudos to Council Speaker Julie Menin for pushing this through - she's a total rockstar

finally! can't believe it took this long for NYC to sort out its street vendor mess 
all those years of people being pushed around or forced onto the streets because they couldn't get licenses... it's just common sense 
I mean, a 10,500+ increase in licenses by 2027? that's like, a whole lot of vendors getting their lives together 
and 2,200 supervisory licenses? yeah, that's gonna help with all the overcrowding on sidewalks 
. it's about time they looked into safety and public health too... can't have people walking around with dodgy food stalls or unsanitary conditions 
. I just hope this is the start of a more organized system for vendors and local businesses alike
