A pilot program for power washing machines to clean sidewalk surfaces in commercial corridors.

This bill would require that by April 1, 2027, the New York City Department of Sanitation (“DSNY”) implement a pilot program for the use of power washing machines to clean and remove odors and spills from sidewalk surfaces in commercial corridors. DSNY would be required to select a pilot program location in each borough, for a 5-block distance on streets with access to mass transit and high pedestrian traffic. The bill would also require DSNY to report on such pilot program by December 1, 2027.
