👎 Negative
2025-10-29 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↓ hurts grade

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to setting a maximum pedestrian path requirement in front of sidewalk cafes
👎 Negative
2025-10-29 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar · ↓ hurts grade
Capping required clear pedestrian path at 8 feet allows cafes to encroach on wider, high-volume sidewalks, increasing crowding, accessibility conflicts, and spillover into curb or bike lanes. This shifts burden onto pedestrians and can reduce walking safety and comfort, undermining equitable, high-capacity foot travel.
Powers co-sponsors roadway and sidewalk cafes expansion, improving street safety.

2025-10-09 · Sponsor · NYC Council – Legistar
Int 1421-2025 would let restaurants and grocery stores run sidewalk and roadway cafes in curb or parking lanes year‑round. It speeds reviews, sets $1,050 fees and four‑year terms, and pushes dining closer to moving traffic — raising risks for pedestrians and cyclists.
