§ 126-33 Curb Cut Restrictions on 15th Avenue

ZR § 126-33

Within the Special College Point District, curb cuts shall be prohibited on 15th Avenue.

However, where permitted or required accessory off-street parking and loading requirements apply in a location where such curb cuts are prohibited, a curb cut may be allowed, provided that the City Planning Commission certifies to the Commissioner of Buildings that such zoning lot has access to the street only through such prohibited location and that such curb cut shall be no greater than 20 feet in width.

An application to the City Planning Commission for certification respecting such curb cut shall be accompanied by a site plan drawn to a scale of at least one-sixteenth inch to a foot, showing the size and location of the proposed curb cut.
