Two City Council leaders called on Mayor Adams’ administration Friday to open up more migrant “reticketing centers” amid concern over newly arrived asylum seekers sleeping outside the city’s only such site due to overcrowding.

Adult migrants who still need shelter after being told to leave due to the mayor’s 30-day restriction are directed to reapply for a bed at the existing reticketing center, which operates out of the old St. Brigid School in the East Village.

But due to a large demand for beds, some migrants have ended up sleeping outside the center while in line — and Council Speaker Adrienne Adams and Councilwoman Carlina Rivera, who chairs the Cultural Affairs Committee, sent a letter to the Adams administration Friday demanding it open multiple new reticketing sites.

“The city can ensure people do not stand on line in the cold without access to even basic facilities like bathrooms … Currently, having one reticketing center has not only led to physical capacity concerns, it has created a burden on the adjacent local community and its public spaces,” Rivera and the speaker wrote in the letter, which was addressed to Emergency Management Commissioner Zach Iscol and obtained by the Daily News.
