Bronx business leaders beseeched Mayor Bill de Blasio on Tuesday for help against rising crime and declining quality of life, including competition from illegal street vendors — who made their own pitch to Hizzoner.

Directors of eight of the borough’s 11 Business Improvement Districts plus reps from the Bronx Chamber of Commerce met with de Blasio at Roberto Clemente Plaza in the South Bronx, according to Third Avenue BID head Michael Brady.

The huddle — part of de Blasio’s weeklong tour of the Boogie Down under the “City Hall in Your Borough” initiative — came less than a week after Brady and other leaders at the area’s “Hub” district sent a letter to de Blasio and City Council Speaker Corey Johnson decrying lawlessness in the area.

On Tuesday, the group “voiced quality of life and business concerns to the Mayor, specifically in the area of illegal vending, homelessness, drug use and sale, and general inefficiencies in services,” Brady told The Post.

  1. Is there a single Democrats’ run city that is safe and prosperous, with increasing quality of life?
    To liberals, every illegal, criminal, moocher, and bum come before productive and decent citizens, who are paying for the upkeep of the societal dregs AND the salaries of those elected officials who habitually disregard them and their needs.
    Why do people continue to vote for such representation?
