As part of the Atlantic Yards project, developer Bruce Ratner of Forest City Ratner Companies signed a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) with eight local community groups.

One of those groups is the New York State Association of Minority Contractors (NYMSAMC), which provides technical assistance and education for small contractors.

The NYMSAMC last week began its third session of construction management workshops at Medgar Evers College last week with a record 70 participants.
