Motor vehicles idling adjacent to and within certain parks.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to motor vehicles idling adjacent to and within certain parks

This bill would amend the idling law to restrict idling to one minute when adjacent to or within parks that have a designated name and are identified as a park on the Department of Parks and Recreation’s website. This bill would also create an affirmative defense that the park was not easily identifiable as a park by signage or otherwise at the time a violation occurred.
