A few days after the hearing\, a transcript of the hearing and copies of the written comments will be available to the public at CECM. \nWhat authorizes CECM to make this rule? Section 1043 of the City Charter\, Local Law 8 of 2021\, as well as Executive Order No. 105 of 2007 authorize CECM to make this proposed rule.  This proposed rule was not included in CECM’s regulatory agenda for this Fiscal Year because it was not contemplated when CECM published the agenda. \nWhere can I find the CECM rules?  The CECM rules are in title 50 of the Rules of the City of New York. \nWhat rules govern the rulemaking process? CECM must meet the requirements of Section 1043 of the City Charter when creating or changing rules. This notice is made according to the requirements of Section 1043 of the City Charter. \nStatement of Basis and Purpose of Proposed Rule\nSection 19-107.1 of the Administrative Code\, as added by Local Law 55 of 2021\, requires the Department of Transportation (DOT) to promulgate rules for the Open Streets Program. Pursuant to its rules\, DOT has authorized the Mayor’s Office of Citywide Event Coordination and Management (CECM)\, which oversees the Street Activity Permit Office (SAPO)\, to promulgate rules relating to the issuance of an Open Streets event permit for activities taking place on a designated Open Street. \nOpen Street Event\nThe permanent Open Street Program allows for various activities on Open Streets designated by DOT and encourages local businesses and schools to embrace these new public spaces. These proposed SAPO rules would maximize opportunities for the public to hold events on Open Street locations while also ensuring that the City has advance notice of all Open Street activity so that events may happen in an orderly fashion while also ensuring that the Open Streets remain available for everyday use and enjoyment by the public. In addition\, these proposed rules would govern the issuance of permits to hold events on Open Streets\, including rules regarding submission and processing of event applications\, approval or denial of event applications\, appeals of denials of Open Street event permits and fees for the use of Open Streets. \nCECM’s authority for these rules is found in section 1043 of the New York City Charter\, Local Law 8 of 2021\, and Executive Order Nos. 100 and 105 of 2007\, which established and conferred rulemaking authority upon the Coordinator of Citywide Special Events. \nNew material is underlined. \n[Deleted material is in brackets.]\nAsterisks (***) indicate unamended text. \n“Shall” and “must” denote mandatory requirements and may be used interchangeably in the rules of this department\, unless otherwise specified or unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. \n  \nSection 1.

Civic events may not include signs or banners displaying sponsors or supporter logos that exceed ten percent (10%) of the face of the sign or banner.    \n“Open Street” means a street or segment of a street within the jurisdiction of the Department of Transportation\, designated by the Department of Transportation as such\, on which motor vehicle access is controlled by barriers and signage or other traffic calming measures\, and on which priority is given to pedestrians\, individuals using bicycles\, and other non-vehicular street users.  Open Streets may be designated on a variety of street types\, including shared streets. \n“Open street event” means a Street event small\, Street event medium\, Street event large\, Extra-large event or Civic event\, within an Open Street where the activity will interfere with or obstruct the regular use of such Open Street but shall not include activities conducted pursuant to a valid film\, parade or construction permit. \n“Open street partner” means a community organization as defined in section 19-107.1 of the administrative code designated by the Department of Transportation pursuant to such section to manage or assist with the management of an Open Street. \n“Open street partner event” means a Civic event on an Open street for which the applicant is solely the Open street partner for such Open street. \n\n 2.  Paragraph 6 of subdivision c of section 1-03 of chapter 1 of title 50 of the Rules of the City of New York is amended to read as follows:\n\n(6)   plans outlining components of the proposed Street event\, Plaza event\, Open street\, or Open Culture event. \n\n 3.  Subdivisions c\,  g\, i\, and j of section 1-04 of chapter 1 of Title 50 of the Rules of the City of New York are amended to read as follows:\n\n(c)   SAPO will make available applications for Plaza event and Open street event permits to the community board(s) for the community district(s) that encompass(es) the Pedestrian plaza(s) or Open street(s) in which the proposed Plaza or Open street event is to take place and to the Pedestrian plaza partner(s) or Open street partner(s) for the Pedestrian plaza(s) or Open street(s) in which the proposed Plaza event or Open street event is to take place. \n(g)   For Street events\, Block parties\, Farmer’s markets\, Open Culture events\, Clean-ups\, Open street events and for Pedestrian plaza events\, SAPO shall notify the community board in which the proposed event will take place that the application is available for agency review and comment on the [CEMS] Citywide Event Management Systems (“CEMS”) database.

SUMMARY:Seeds of Survival and Celebration
DESCRIPTION:For the past two years\, a garden exhibition “Seeds of Survival and Celebration: Plants and the Black Experience” at Cornell Botanic Gardens has been sharing the knowledge\, skill\, and resilience of enslaved Africans\, their descendants\, and today’s Black community and their deep connections to plants\, the cuisines they inspired\, and the medicines that healed them. \nJoin us for a webinar featuring the creators of the exhibition to learn how enslaved Africans used their culinary skills and plants that came with them from West Africa and new plants available to them in the Americas to prepare foods—Many of which became regional staples and are part of the culinary and cultural heritage in America today.

Panelists will discuss some of the plants grown and used by enslaved Africans in the Americas such as black-eyed pea\, okra\, collard greens\, watermelon\, and more. Turning to contemporary plant connections\, panelists will also discuss and show the “Cultivators of Celebration\,” which is a display within the exhibition that celebrates people who continue to safeguard and elevate the rich heritage associated with the plants showcased in the exhibition. \nEvent Details:\nDATE: Monday\, February 26\, 2024\nTIME: 7:00 p.m. ET\nLOCATION: Online Zoom Event | Zoom Link/Details will be provided in your registration confirmation email upon registering. \nParticipants: \n\nKofi Acree\, Director of the John Henrik Clarke Africana Library\, Africana Center\, Exhibit Advisor\nDr. Christopher P.

SUMMARY:MTA Congestion Pricing Public Comment Period (12/27/23 to 3/11/2024)
DESCRIPTION:The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) today announced details of a public comment period of the tolling structure that has been proposed for Central Business District Tolling\, New York’s congestion pricing program. The agency will accept written and audio comments starting tomorrow and will hold four hybrid virtual/in-person public hearings in February and March. \nThe proposed tolling structure is available online. It is modeled on recommendations made by the Traffic Mobility Review Board on Nov. 30. \nFrom Wednesday\, Dec. 27\, 2023\, through Monday\, March 11\, 2024\, members of the public may submit written comments online and by email\, mail and fax\, and may submit audio comments by leaving a voicemail message. All comments will be recorded and submitted for review. \nOnline: https://contact.mta.info/s/forms/CBDTP\nEmail: cbdtp.feedback@mtabt.org\nMail: CBD Tolling Program\, 2 Broadway\, 23rd Floor\, New York\, NY 10004\nPhone: 646-252-7440\nFax: Send to (212) 504-3148 with Attention to CBDTP Team. \nThe hearings begin on Thursday\, Feb. 29\, and conclude on Monday\, March 4. Members of the public who wish to speak at the hearings are required to register in advance online\, by calling the Public Hearing Hotline at (646) 252-6777\, or in person.
