NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A5812
 
SPONSOR: Fall
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to parking permit systems for park-and-rides on Staten Island   PURPOSE: Relates to authorizing a parking permit system for park-and-rides in the Borough of Staten Island   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 amends the Vehicle and Traffic law by adding a new section 1640-q.   JUSTIFICATION: This bill would implement a parking permit system for park-and-ride parking lots located in Staten Island. The Borough of Staten Island has three park and ride parking lots offer Staten Island commuters a combined 1,157 parking spaces. Recently, it seems that out-of-state residents are taking advantage of the free parking at park-and-ride lots to the detriment of Staten Island residents. This requires Staten Island residents often have to find less convenient parking when parking spaces in park-and-ride lots are occu- pied by out-of-state residents. The cost of operating and maintaining park-and-ride parking lots on Staten Island is supplemented with revenue collected from the taxes paid by Staten Island residents and other resi- dents of the state of New York. This bill, by implementing a paid park- ing permit system at Staten Island park-and-ride lots in which Staten Island residents receive a permit free of charge and out-of-state resi- dents pay an annual fee for a permit would increase the availability of parking spaces for Staten Island residents.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None.   LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2022: S.4932 - Referred to Transportation 2021: S.4932 - Referred to Transportation 2020: S.3277- Referred to Transportation/ A.7149 - Referred to Transpor- tation 2019: S.3277- Referred to Transportation/ A.7149 - Referred to Transpor- tation 2018: S.6204- Referred to Transportation / A.8404 - Referred to Trans- portation 2017: S.6204- Third Reading Calendar/ A.8404- Referred to Transportation 2016: S.8171- Referred to Rules   EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.
