Hayes, as alderman of the 9th Ward, takes the responsibility to his constituents very seriously. He is a man of action, and not just words. When Tropical Storm Irene struck the area, it left many without power, including Yosman Towers Senior Residence on Broadway. Hayes dealt with the Central Hudson and the Department Of Public Works to develop a timeline for when they would get their power back, as their generator couldn’t keep up. People were without cable and phone service, and were losing food. Once power was finally restored on Thursday, Hayes began making trips with residents to Hannafords to get groceries with them. Pictured in the photo with Hayes are Janina Piazza in the middle and Debbie Hannigan on the right.
