NYC councilwoman: It might be ‘beneficial’ to assign public housing by ethnic group.

A Brooklyn city councilwoman wants to know why “blocs” of Asians are living in two Fort Greene housing projects — and suggested it would be “beneficial” to assign housing by ethnic group. . . .

Cumbo issued an apology, saying she only wanted to know if the New York City Housing Authority “uses a cultural preference priority component” in picking tenants.

NYCHA Chair Shola Olatoye said it did not, and noted its vacancy rate is less than 1 percent, making such an influx nearly impossible.

Still, Cumbo told The Post, “There could be some benefit to housing people by culture . . . I think it needs to be discussed.”

But she’s black, so this won’t be big news.
