CM James Sponsors "Beautify and Unify" To Encourage CrH/PH Revitalization; 8/20
Council Member Letitia James invites the Crown Heights and Prospect Heights communities to "Beautify and Unify", sponsored by Council Member Letitia James, NYC Community Cleanup, the Crown Heights Mediation Center, The Prospect Heights Street Tree Task Force, and the Executive Director of IKOKO!
The event is Saturday August 20th, beginning 10:00am (participants are encouraged to meet at 9:45am) on the corner of Sterling Place and Nostrand Avenue.
The clean-up day will encourage and assist in the ongoing North Crown Heights revitalization, and include graffiti removal, store front cleaning, garbage removal and street tree care. NYC Community Clean Up will provide these services (with the exception of street tree care) at no cost to the merchants and residents. Prospect Heights Street Tree Task Force will handle tree care which will include soil aeration, mulching, and pruning. The Crown Heights Mediation Center conceived of the clean-up day as a way to support new and existing businesses along Nostrand Avenue.
Council Member James encourages store owners along Nostrand to contact the Brooklyn Solution Center Branch of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, which provide alternate sources of capital and business solutions. Also, we encourage new store owners to access NBAT, New York City business acceleration initiative.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jonathan Perez at the Office of Council Member Letitia James at 718-260-9191.

ALTERNATE SIDE SUSPENDED IN DOWNTOWN BK, DUMBO, VINEGAR HILL STARTING 7/14 6-8 WEEKS FOR REDUCED STREET-CLEANING; REGULATIONS START IN FG/CH 7/20!
ALTERNATE SIDE PARKING REGULATIONS SUSPENDED IN DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN, DUMBO, VINEGAR HILL, FULTON FERRY AND BROOKLYN HEIGHTS (JORALEMON STREET AND NORTH) STARTING JULY 13 FOR SIX TO EIGHT WEEKS AS DOT POSTS NEW, REDUCED STREET-CLEANING REGULATIONS
New regulations will take effect in Fort Greene and Clinton Hill starting July 20
Suspension is the second of three phases for neighborhoods in Community District 2
Effective Monday, July 13, 2009, Street Cleaning/Alternate Side Parking Regulations will be temporarily suspended in Downtown Brooklyn, DUMBO, Vinegar Hill, Fulton Ferry, and parts of the Brooklyn Heights area of Brooklyn's Community District 2 for approximately six to eight weeks as the Department of Transportation (DOT) installs some 2,000 signs with new, reduced regulations. This is the second of a three-phase project to change signs throughout the district.
Parts of Brooklyn Heights south of Joralemon Street will not be included in the second phase of the suspension and will remain subject to posted parking regulations. The first phase of the sign-replacement project is now complete, with signs in the Fort Greene and Clinton Hill sections of the district having been replaced since May 18. The newly posted regulations will be enforceable on Monday, July 20, giving residents two weeks to adjust to the new rules.
In the upcoming phase of the sign-replacement project, some daytime residential street cleaning parking restrictions are being reduced from twice a week to just once a week to ease parking for local residents. In other cases, only the time of day of the street-cleaning regulation will change. The new rules were established by the Department of Sanitation (DOS) at the request of Community Board 2.
Street Cleaning Regulations (all parking signs marked with a broom symbol) will be suspended within the following borders from July 13 until further notice:
North: East River from Furman Street to Hudson Avenue.
East: Hudson Avenue (included) from John Street to Navy Street, including Plymouth Street, Little Street and Evans Street; Navy Street (included) from Hudson Avenue to Myrtle Avenue; Myrtle Avenue (not included) from Navy Street to Flatbush Avenue; Flatbush Avenue (included) from Myrtle Avenue to Fulton Street.
South: Fulton Street (not included) from Flatbush Avenue to Adams Street; Joralemon Street (included) from Adams Street to East River.
West: Furman Street (included) from Joralemon Street to Old Fulton Street.
The new regulations will take effect once sign changes are complete in the entire area, also indicated on the attached map. The changes do not affect 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. parking rules or meter regulations, or any other parking rules that are not street cleaning regulations, such as one-day-per-week "No Parking" restrictions common to Brooklyn Heights. DOT will give advance notification before enforcement resumes, and residents encouraged to check the DOT's Web site at www.nyc.gov/dot, the DOS's website at www.nyc.gov/sanitation, and call 311 regularly for the most updated information available.

ALTERNATIVE SIDE PARKING REGULATIONS SUSPENDED TEMP IN CH/FG; REDUCED STREET CLEANING
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:
North: Flushing Avenue (included) from Navy Street to Classon Avenue.
East: Classon Avenue (included) from Flushing Avenue to Fulton Street.
South: Fulton Street (not included) from Classon Avenue to Flatbush Avenue.
West: Flatbush Avenue (not included) from Fulton Street to Myrtle Avenue; Myrtle Avenue (included) from Flatbush Avenue to Navy Street; Navy Street (not included) Myrtle Avenue to Flushing Avenue.
The new regulations will take effect once sign changes are complete in the entire area, also indicated on the attached map. The changes do not affect 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. parking rules or meter regulations, or any other parking rules that are not street cleaning regulations.
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. During that transition, DOT conducted a study, which found that the suspension of ASP regulations had minimal impact on traffic and parking conditions in the area.
For more information, please contact the Citizen Service Center at 311 or visit the Department of Sanitation’s web site at www.nyc.gov/sanitation, or contact Brooklyn Community Board 2 at (718) 596-5410 or CB2K@nyc.rr.com.

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.
