Authorizes certain owners of residential real property in the city of New York to opt out of planned city tree planting
This bill allows owners of residential properties in New York City, including owner-occupied homes, residential co-ops, and condominium boards, to opt out of city tree planting on the sidewalk-to-curb strip adjacent to their property. It requires the city to notify property owners of planned tree planting and give them 30 days to request an opt-out. The policy change directly affects residential property owners who wish to exclude their property from the city's street tree planting program. The city must honor these opt-outs after the 30-day period. The bill takes effect 120 days after enactment.
