Removal of abandoned or derelict vehicles.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to removal of abandoned or derelict vehicles

This bill would require that the Department of Sanitation (DSNY) remove, cause to be removed, or refer for removal abandoned vehicles within 72 hours after DSNY becomes aware of the vehicle. DSNY would also be specifically responsible for the removal within 72 hours of particular abandoned vehicles that do not have license plates and have a wholesale value of $1250 or less.
