Authorizes the city of New York to provide for a residential parking permit system
This bill authorizes New York City to establish a residential parking permit system in specific Brooklyn neighborhoods (including Clinton Hill, Park Slope, and DUMBO) to address traffic hazards and pollution caused by parking shortages. It requires residents to obtain permits for parking in designated areas, exempts vehicles registered under Vehicle and Traffic Law § 404-a, and mandates that at least 20% of spaces remain available for nonresidents with short-term parking options. Fees collected from permits must be paid quarterly to the New York City Transportation Assistance Fund for transit improvements, excluding administrative costs. The system is limited to the specified neighborhoods and expires December 1, 2030.

MINOR
The bill was amended to update the list of Brooklyn neighborhoods eligible for a new residential parking permit system, replacing specific street names with broader Community Board designations. The amendment also reorganized the bill's text to reflect its progression through the legislative process, including a recommitment to the Transportation Committee.
Scope change
The geographic scope of the parking permit system was expanded and generalized. Instead of listing specific streets and neighborhoods (like Clinton Hill and DUMBO), the new version applies to all neighborhoods within Brooklyn Community Boards 2, 4, 6, and the Prospect Heights neighborhood in Community Board 8.
SCOPE
Replaced a detailed list of specific neighborhoods and street boundaries with a broader definition based on Brooklyn Community Boards 2, 4, 6, and the Prospect Heights neighborhood in Community Board 8.
TECHNICAL
Updated the bill header and introduction text to reflect that the bill was read once, referred to the Committee on Transportation, recommitted to that committee, discharged, amended, and ordered reprinted.
