NO PARKING

Borough President
Antonio Reynoso and
northern Brooklyn Councilmember
Lincoln Restler
are demanding an
end to minimum parking
requirements for new
construction in transitrich
areas.
When a developer
seeks a rezoning to build
taller developments,
they’re often forced to
build off-street parking
— which is designed to reduce
the impact that new
construction has on parking
in the neighborhood.
But now, the group
of electeds signed a petition
letter calling on the
Department of City Planning
(DCP) to fully waive
parking constraints for
all residential developers
of any rezoning projects
in public transit-rich areas.
The representatives
aim to disincentivize people
living in areas with
access to subways and
buses from using and
buying cars, with the intention
to reduce carbon
emissions and improve
the “borough’s urban fabric”
— all while providing
developers with the
option to redirect space
toward construction of
more affordable housing,
said Restler in an exclusive
to the Brooklyn paper.
“The accessory parking
in buildings on key
mixed-use corridors like
Fourth Avenue, Flatbush
Avenue, and Fulton
Street disrupt our borough’s
urban fabric, making
our City less affordable,
less walkable, and
incentivizes car ownership,”
read the electeds’
letter to the DCP. “The
last place we need developers
to build accessory
parking is in areas with
substantial access to public
transportation. We
need to reduce car ownership
in our city, and
requiring new parking
within close proximity to
public transit has the opposite
effect.”
Restler pointed to one
28-unit rising project just
outside the Bedford subway
station, which includes
14 required parking
spots on the ground
level — saying that, in addition
to other problems,
such requirements often
make the construction
“drab, dark, and lifeless.”
“Because below-grade
parking is so expensive
to construct, many developments
across the city
do so on the ground-fl oor,
leading to drab, dark, lifeless
streets” said a statement
from Restler on
Monday.
Even though there are
many businesses around
the crossroad of Bedford
Ave. and North Seventh
Street, it is not confi rmed
that the new building will
have commercial spaces.
Within slightly over 2
square miles, Williamsburg
residents have access
to the four bus lines
and seven subway stations.
“This is an example of
an area that doesn’t need
more parking, doesn’t
need more cars, for sure,”
said Reynoso. “So it’s a
model development for
us to use as a fi rst shot
at showing people that
parking requirements
should not be used here.
Also, I think the most important
thing is that the
parking requirements being
removed, allows for
more housing to be built.
It makes the projects less
expensive. It also makes
it so that instead of taking
down, you can build
up, so we got more housing
out of this proposal.”
As the city bounces
back from the COVID
pandemic, real estate
prices and housing demand
have been restored
and continue to rise.
“A lot of the pushback
that we get from developers
over how much affordable
housing they
can build is that they
have to build out these
spaces for cars, that could
be spaces for people, but
it’s a requirement by
law,” said Reynoso. “So I
guess there’s an assumption
that instead of parking
there will be housing.
How much affordable
housing would really depend
on who’s negotiating
the project as a councilmember
and where
and how much of it is a
part of Mandatory Inclusionary
Housing. So it’s
not it’s not so cut and dry.
But it should make it less
expensive to build.”
PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY WARNING!
DID YOU KNOW...
The most common method your
doctor will recommend to treat your
neuropathy is with prescription drugs...
which only reduce your symptoms?
These types of drugs, over time, may
cause you to feel uncomfortable and
have a variety of harmful side effects
Peripheral Neuropathy is actually a
result of DAMAGE to the Nerves...
Most Commonly caused by a lack of
to degeneration of the nerves.
As you can see in Figure 1, as the
blood vessels that surround nerves
begin to “die” they cause you to have
balance problems, pain, numbness,
tingling, burning, and many additional
symptoms.
Nerve images
Figure 1: When these very small blood
vessels become diseased they begin
to shrivel up and the nerves begin to
degenerate.
The low level light therapy is like
watering a plant. The light therapy will
allow the blood vessels to grow back
around the peripheral nerves and provide
them with the proper nutrients to heal
and repair. It’s like adding water to a
plant an seeing the roots grow deeper
and deeper.
In order to effectively treat
your neuropathy three factors
must be determined.
1) What is the underlying cause?
2) How Much Nerve Damage
3) How much treatment will your
condition require?
ONLY a Detailed Neurological and
Vascular Evaluation can determine the
amount of treatment needed for each
person...
