Creation of a task force to study the effect of shadows cast by large buildings over parkland.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the creation of a task force to study the effect of shadows cast by large buildings over parkland.

This bill would require the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) to establish a task force to study the effect of shadows cast on public parks by buildings constructed in the vicinity of such parks. The task force would study the effect of these shadows and issue a report on steps the City can take to mitigate negative consequences.
