 Introduced  by  Sen.  MAYER  -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
   printed to be committed to the Committee on Transportation
 
 AN ACT to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to implementing
   a residential parking system in the city of New Rochelle
 
   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

   Section  1.  Legislative  findings and intent.   The legislature finds
 that there is a severe shortage of parking for residents of the City  of
 New  Rochelle  in  the  residential area of Sutton Manor.  The residents
 living in the Sutton Manor neighborhood are  suffering  interference  to
 the  tranquility  and quiet enjoyment of their neighborhood by reason of
 visitors and users of the nearby  New  Rochelle  Station,  by  shoppers,
 diners  and  users  of  New  Rochelle's  downtown area, and by owners of
 commercial vehicles from the villages, towns, boroughs and cities neigh-
 boring Sutton Manor. Each of  the  foregoing  individuals  park  in  the
 Sutton  Manor as a free and convenient alternative to paid, permit park-
 ing in and around New Rochelle and its surroundings. This use has caused
 significant safety  issues,  refuse  and  sanitation  problems,  traffic
 hazards,  congestion,  air  and  noise  pollution and other disturbances
 which cumulatively have severely deteriorated the peace, tranquility and
 quality of life of the residents of this neighborhood.  The legislature,
 therefore, hereby declares the necessity of this act  to  authorize  the
 City of New Rochelle in the county of Westchester to adopt a residential
 parking permit system in accordance with the provisions of this act.
   §  2.  The  vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a new section
 1640-r to read as follows:
   § 1640-R. RESIDENTIAL PARKING SYSTEM IN THE CITY OF NEW  ROCHELLE.  1.
 NOTWITHSTANDING  THE  PROVISIONS  OF  ANY  LAW TO THE CONTRARY, THE CITY
 COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEW ROCHELLE MAY, BY ADOPTION OF A LOCAL  LAW  OR
 ORDINANCE,  PROVIDE  FOR A RESIDENTIAL PARKING PERMIT SYSTEM AND FIX AND
 REQUIRE THE PAYMENT OF FEES APPLICABLE TO PARKING  WITHIN  THE  AREA  IN
 WHICH SUCH PARKING SYSTEM IS IN EFFECT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS
 OF THIS SECTION.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                            LBD14954-01-2
