I am looking for a listing of all the negotiated MOUs entered into by housing or social services agencies to provide housing or supportive services within the City of New York. I would like to know how much is being spent to provide housing services outside of the Requests for Proposals that are responded to by organizations and that are awarded to provide housing.
Response
At this time we do not believe the consolidated data that you requested (all negotiated MOUs by housing and social services) is maintained within the City.

But, you can find MOU's for the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and Human Resources Administration (HRA) at the below links.

HPD - http://www1.nyc.gov/site/hpd/about/interagency-mou...

I am a Professor of ***** at *****. I am looking for rooftop height lira derived data at 3 m resolution that I need for a project to model pollution transport in New York City metropolitan area. A unique model will be run on one of the largest supercomputers in the world. This project would answer the question how pollution is transported on street level around the NYC metropolitan area for different meteorological conditions. The computer modeling will be supplemented with measurements of aerosol transport using lidar.

I am working on a project. As part of the evaluation we are hoping to get administrative data from the NYC Housing Authority on things like housing subsidies public housing assistance and housing choice vouchers. We would provide the necessary patient identifying information and any additional information or paperwork. Would you be able to tell me if there is a form to begin this data request from the NYC Housing Authority, or guide me to the appropriate contact for that?



How long are New York City Residents typically in these programs and how much help are they getting?
Response
Hi,

At this time, we believe that your requested dataset is not maintained by a New York City agency that falls under the purview of the Open Data Law.

This may be due to the fact that some organizations that operate in the City of New York may not fall under the purview of the NYC open data law. You can find further detail on the law here:

Thank you for your data request. DOHMH does not collect data on the top 4-5 mental health challenges among teens in Public High Schools. DOHMH does have data on from the Youth Behavioral Risk Survey (YRBS) that asks a sample of high school students from across the city specifically about feeling sad, depressed, suicidal thoughts and attempts. The full YRBS data is available online at Epiquery: https://a816-healthpsi.nyc.gov/epiquery/YRBS/yrbsIndex.html

Hello, thank you for your request.

Violation deficiency report data is not regularly maintained by DOHMH and would pose undue administrative burden. Further, public presentation of deficiency/violation data prior to adjudication would not meet standards of due-process.

I am interested in the Restaurant Inspection Results data. I would like similar data to the one currently available however with two things:
1) more years of the data
2) an indicator for the health inspector (not any PII, just an anonymized code to track the same person over different inspection records)


Economic questions about how health inspectors assign scores and the impact of this on businesses
Response
“Thank you for your inquiry. The Department is in the process of making more restaurant data available online as suggested. Given the large size of the data-sets as well as the dynamic nature of it, the process is complex and will take time to complete. As for date related to inspectors we will have to discuss the matter at length with out General Counsel to see if and how that data can be made available

For Information about how scores are assigned is already available online here.

These fields are not captured within our index data and only appear through imaging docs on the ACRIS platform. We would only be able to find such information via a manual search, which should be requested via FOIL.

Hi Open Data NYC,
Please include data on pollution in NYC. This includes air pollution, water pollution, and its sources.


It is important to acknowledge pollution because it affects our health, and it is also something we can stop if we acknowledge the issues of pollution and work together to create solutions.
Response
Hi,

Below are a few datasets regarding air and water pollution in NYC.

HIV Testing Sites - A data set that has the address of all HIV testing sites in NYC and borough it resides in.
Response
To whom it may concern,

Your data nomination HIV testing locations concerns data maintained by the Department of Health & Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and determined to be a public data set. The data is currently available on the open data portal at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Health/HIV-Testing-Locations/d7cb-362h

When considering any changes to already published datasets, agencies consider whether the additional information: (1) can be used to increase agency accountability and responsiveness; (2) improves public knowledge of the agency and its operations; (3) furthers the mission of the agency; (4) creates economic opportunity; or (5) responds to a need or demand identified by public consultation.

If changed, the availability of this additional information will be listed in the upcoming update to the NYC open data plan at http://www1.nyc.gov/assets/home/downloads/pdf/reports/2015/NYC-Open-Data-Plan-2015.pdf

I'm wondering if the LEP population uses city services. What service are they often referred to? I am using this information for my graduate thesis project to understand common needs of the LEP population in NYC.
Response
The number and percentage of overall calls handled annually at 311 in languages other than English in aggregate are reported in the MMR.
