Monserrate Officially Against Term Limits Extension
Councilman Hiram Monserrate has come out publicly against the current plan to extend term limits. Currently, the Mayor and City Council may only serve two consecutive terms in office, but the Mayor is pushing a plan to extend those limits to three consecutive terms.
Monserrate had been on the fence with the issue but now joins a group of Council Members who oppose the proposal.
Whether or not term limits are extended will be the determining factor in whether or not Mayor Bloomberg can run once again for re-election. That, of course, could have a significant impact upon the future of Willets Point.
Despite that fact, I believe term limits should not be changed through the rushed legislative process that is taking place.
