Bill > S05888

This bill authorizes the city of New York to establish a parking permit system specifically for park-and-ride locations within the borough of Staten Island. The system allows Staten Island residents to obtain parking permits at no cost, while out-of-state residents will be required to pay an annual fee. Before implementing such a system, the city must pass a local law or ordinance that outlines several key requirements, including the specific reasons for creating the permit system, exempting certain motor vehicles (such as those registered under section 404-a), specifying the times and days the permit requirements will be in effect, detailing the fee schedule, and ensuring that all collected fees are credited to the city's general fund. The bill mandates that any proposed local law must first undergo a public hearing in accordance with the municipal home rule law, ensuring community input and transparency in the process. The legislation provides flexibility for the city to manage park-and-ride parking while protecting the interests of local residents and generating revenue from out-of-state users.
