Assemblywoman Joan Millman continues to be at the forefront of Brooklyn’s anti-unsolicited-flyer movement. On Tuesday the assemblywoman helped push a new bill through the assembly that builds upon legislation passed last summer banning the unsolicited placement of flyers and circulars on owner-occupied buildings containing up to four units, according to a press release sent out by Millman’s office yesterday. The bill will give the city the power to enforce violations on the ban. This is a problem for many of my constituents, stated Millman, whose office offers free signs that tell solicitors to bug off with all that wasted paper.
