Giuliani starts first steps to Presidential Candidacy

I'm not familiar with the governmental structure of NYC. Was the mayor directly responsible for each of these achievements listed? Were programs of his own initiative responsible for these? Or does NYC also have some sort of board or commissioners, etc.?

Also, where do these statistics come from? Sources are always good. Particularly since statistics can often be scewed and rarely tell the whole story.
