Community Boards of Manhattan are New York City community boards in the borough of Manhattan, which are appointed by the Borough President or City Council members. Each of the 12 Community Boards in Manhattan consists of up to 50 non-paid members. They do not have any administrative rights, but they may present requests regarding community needs to City Administration. They can also ask a party before the Board to agree to contractual obligations (such as limiting business hours, etc.) contingent upon a positive vote. However, enforcement is handled elsewhere. There is no guarantee that the request will be approved by City, but in practice the most of reasonable problems have been resolved.
