The Hochul administration wrote a letter which said that City Hall had failed\u2064 to accept \u201cnumerous offers\u201d from the state legislature in recent years which were meant for shelters.<\/p>\n<p>The letter said that the proposed shelters \u200bwould have been able to \u2062house more than 3,000 people, \u200dwith different sites for single adult men.
