	[HK-Online] Peter Vallone: Anti-tenant, Anti-neighborhood

		Also this winter, a graffiti cleanup group's trailer _ which said "Sponsored by Peter Vallone Jr." on the side _ was stolen, robbed of its paint buckets and rollers, and abandoned many miles away in Staten Island.

		Vallone has drafted a bill that gives landlords a dangerously generous amount of time to remove lead paint, allows them in some cases to abandon safety standards, and limits legal recourse for families whose children are poisoned.
		A Vallone spokesperson would comment only that "we are still in discussion and do not have a bill yet." The Vallone-directed bill was drafted in opposition to a measure introduced by Manhattan councilmember Stanley Michels, who called for aggressive lead-paint "remediation" in apartment buildings, schools, public playgrounds, and day care centers.
		The Vallone plan's central fault, opponents say, is a two-tiered system that gives landlords their most coveted win: it forbids housing inspectors from writing a formal notice of violation upon first discovering peeling lead paint, allowing a violation only if the problem is not remedied.
