By Council Members Salamanca, Vacca, Gentile, Treyger, Koslowitz and Dromm

 

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to minimum notice of temporary parking restrictions related to the removal of trees

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1. Chapter 1 of title 18 of the administrative code of the city of New York is amended by adding a new section 18-148 to read as follows:

§ 18-148 Notification of tree removal. a. Not less than two days prior to commencement of temporary parking restrictions on any street or roadway or a portion thereof, for the purpose of removal of trees by the department, the department shall post notice of the effective date of such restrictions on such street or roadway, unless the planned work is to occur in accordance with other existing parking restrictions, such as alternate side parking regulations. Such notification shall include the effective date of such restrictions, the location of such restrictions and the estimated end date of such restrictions. 

b. Nothing in this section shall be construed to require the department to provide notice of any temporary parking restrictions where such restrictions are required to commence immediately to preserve public safety.

c. Nothing in this section shall be construed to require the department to complete planned removal within the estimated end date of such restrictions.
