Proposals
Zone Green Text Amendment Department of City Planning proposes a Citywide zoning text amendment to remove zoning impediments to the construction and retrofitting of greener buildings. This proposal would give owners more choices for the investments they can make to save energy, save money, and improve environmental performance. This proposal will help bring our buildings into the 21st century while protecting the character and quality of life of our neighborhoods.
(E) designations Text Amendment
The Department of City Planning proposes a citywide text amendment to Section 11-15 and related Sections of the Zoning Resolution to update the regulations governing Environmental “(E)” designations. This text amendment is being closely coordinated with the New York City Office of Environmental Remediation (OER) and will result in a more streamlined and transparent (E) Program – the City’s process for establishing environmental requirements related to hazardous materials, air quality and noise on potential development sites identified during CEQR for proposed rezonings.
Vision 2020: The NYC Comprehensive Waterfront Plan
The Department of City Planning is currently preparing a Comprehensive Plan for the over 500 miles of New York City’s waterfront, defined as New York Harbor and its tributaries, creeks and bays. Vision 2020 will build on the original Comprehensive Waterfront Plan, published in 1992, and the city’s experience over the past 18 years in order to set forth a new long range vision for a 21st Century NYC waterfront. Specifically, Vision 2020 will identify key opportunities for improving our waterfront and outline strategies to realize this new vision.
