(Aguila) are operating the shelter services for homeless families at 316 West 95th and 330 West 95th St. (collectively, the Premises) known as Freedom House (the Shelter) in violation of the New York City Charter and the Administrative Code in that i) the placement of the Shelter violates the New York City Charter and City Planning Commission Fair Share requirements, ii) the operation of the Shelter as proposed would violate Administrative Code 21-312 which limits the size of a shelter to 200 persons; and iii) upon information and belief, the Shelter will operate in violation of the certificate of occupancy of part of the Premises, and, (b) as a result of the foregoing, permanently enjoining the operation of the Shelter at the Premises; 2) a declaration that the manner in which Aguila and DHS has operated the Shelter from its inception constitutes a nuisance to the neighborhood and members of N90 and enjoining the continuation of any further conduct which would constitute a nuisance, including, but not limited to, loitering by Shelter residents, sleeping in neighborhood parks, littering and the creation of unreasonable noises; and 3) a declaration that the Comptroller of the City of New York properly rejected contract number 1427016 (the Contract) between DHS and Aguila
