Bill > A04845

This bill directs the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) and the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) to conduct a comprehensive joint study on parking availability along a specific stretch of 8th Avenue in Brooklyn, spanning from 39th to 73rd Street. The study will examine the current parking situation for different types of vehicles, including passenger vehicles, delivery vehicles, and two-wheeled motor vehicles. Specifically, the agencies will assess whether the existing parking is adequate for local businesses, their customers, and residential residents, and will estimate the cost of constructing additional parking to meet the identified needs. The NYSDOT and NYCDOT are required to complete the study within one year and submit a detailed report of their findings to key government officials, including the governor, senate president, assembly speaker, and New York City mayor. The bill will take effect immediately and automatically expire and be repealed eighteen months after its enactment, ensuring a time-limited scope for this parking availability investigation.
