ALTERNATE SIDE PARKING REGULATIONS SUSPENDED IN FORT GREENE AND CLINTON HILL STARTING MAY 18 FOR SIX TO EIGHT WEEKS AS DOT POSTS NEW, REDUCED STREET-CLEANING RESTRICTIONS
Suspension is the first of three phases for neighborhoods in Community District 2
Effective Monday, May 18, 2009, Street Cleaning/Alternate Side Parking Regulations will be temporarily suspended in the Fort Greene and Clinton Hill sections of Brooklyn's Community District 2 for approximately six to eight weeks as the Department of Transportation (DOT) installs approximately 2,000 signs with new, reduced regulations. In most cases, daytime residential street cleaning parking restrictions will be reduced from twice a week to just once a week to ease parking for local residents. On commercial corridors, some streets will now be cleaned more often and regulations will be better coordinated to help ensure some curbside parking for local shoppers. The new rules were established by the Department of Sanitation at the request of Community Board 2. Changes for the rest of the district will occur in two additional phases, which will be announced over the summer.
Street Cleaning Regulations will be suspended within the following borders from May 18 until further notice:

South: Fulton Street (not included) from Classon Avenue to Flatbush Avenue.

The DOT will give advance notification before enforcement resumes, and the public is encouraged to check the DOT's Web site at www.nyc.gov/dot and call 311 regularly.
Similar conversions and temporary suspensions of ASP rules will occur in the coming months in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO, and remaining neighborhoods within Community District 2, affecting approximately 4,000 additional signs.
Regulations were similarly converted last year in the Park Slope, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens and Red Hook neighborhoods in Brooklyn Community District 6.

APPROVAL OF THE DEPARTMENT OF SANITATION’S PROPOSED REDUCTION IN ALTERNATE SIDE PARKING REGULATIONS IN FORT GREENE & CLINTON HILL
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
October 9, 2008
Council Member Letitia James and Brooklyn’s Community Board 2 Announce Approval of the Department of Sanitation’s Proposed Reduction in Alternate Side Parking Regulations in Fort Greene & Clinton Hill
Residents and public officials have been advocating change for years
(Brooklyn, NY) - The New York City Department of Sanitation has proposed reducing the number of days of Alternate Side of the Street Parking in Brooklyn’s Community District 2, and Community Board 2 voted to approve the change this past Tuesday night, October 7, 2008.
This modification in street cleaning rules will result in reducing the frequency of street cleaning from two times per side of the street each week to one time per side of the street for most of the district. This past summer, a similar change was implemented in Brooklyn’s Community District 6 and has been met with widespread community approval. The expansion of this change in street cleaning rules in Community District 2 was eagerly anticipated in the affected neighborhoods, and will reduce the burden of searching for parking, from TWICE a week to ONCE a week for most residents of Community District 2. Parking rules will not change in Brooklyn Heights.
“This has been a dream of downtown Brooklyn residents for longer than I can remember, and something I have been personally advocating for my constituents,” said Council Member James. “Significant savings will be realized by the Department of Sanitation, and drivers will save time and money by cutting their search for parking from two days a week to once.”
“The reduction in alternate side parking regulations has finally been realized and will bring much needed relief to the community while helping to reduce unnecessary pollution,” said John Dew, Chairperson, Brooklyn Community Board 2.
