    On average, the mayor receives 272 such letters, e-mails and faxes each day.

    The letters range from thank you notes from tourists to complaints about shortened bike lanes.

    One 11-year-old wrote to thank the mayor for a snow day off from school. Another writer objected to the treatment of carriage horses during a snowstorm.

    One resident wrote to share his amazement that the Department of Environmental Protection helped him fish his lost apartment keys out of a catch basin.

    I wait with bated breath for the VIN readership commentary on this article. C’mon people. We all know that most politicians aren’t exactly the people we would like to have at our Shabbos tables – but why every time there is a piece on Bloomberg do so many people trot out “he’s doing such a bad job…because I just got a ticket blah blah” comments? I don’t get it. For those of you who have a problem with him, can you please explain to me exactly what type of mayor you would prefer – be descriptive – not a person…the type of mayor. I’d love to know – and then see if anyone, anywhere actually matches up to that description.

    False. I wrote multiple times about the same isse, and never received a response. (maybe, it was because i told him about corruption )

    On the day that Bloomberg’s mother turned 100, my mother emailed him! She told him that his mother should have nachas from him and his accomplishments. He in fact did respond with much appreciation. Now that’s mentchlich!

    Just curious if he responds to tzedaka letters, I guess there’s only one way to find out.
