Residential Streetscape Preservation Text Amendment
Please read : City Planning's proposed text amendment
Norwood Neighborhood Association is urging Mayor Bloomberg, Queensborough President Helen Marshall, Council Member Vallone and Community Board 1 to lead the way and support The City Planning Commission's proposed city wide Residential Streetscape Preservation text amendments. These proposals to amend zoning regulations will help protect and promote more livable neighborhoods by closing some of the loop-holes currently being exploited by developers*** who turn a blind eye towards quality of life, architectural continuity and preserving green spaces in our community.
