Codify Bus/Shuttle Stop Locations on South Broadway and West Market Streets and Create Regulations in the Municipal Parking Lot

Resolution #13-2018 — 2018-06-11

WHEREAS

  • the Village Board of Red Hook has decided to designate and assign bus stops with requisite no parking signage/markings on Rt 9 and Rt 199. Specifically, defining a southbound bus stop area at Rt 9 in front of Village Hall; a northbound stop on Rt 9 at Firehouse Plaza and a westbound stop at the corner of Rt 199 and St, John Street. (exact dimensions to be provided.)
  • mass transit reduces the need for private passenger vehicle traffic and therefore reduces pollution and traffic in the village, provides residents with needed transportation and mutually benefits the village and travelers
  • the enforcement of a no parking /bus stop area violation requires inclusion of these zones in the village's Vehicle and Traffic Regulations, as codified, which requires the formal step of a public hearing
  • the Village needs to set regulations in the municipal lot to codify handicap parking, regulate use by commercial/livery parking and protect staff and EV charging stations

RESOLVED

  • the Village of Red Hook will hold a public hearing at 7 pm on July 09, 2018 to take public comment on the matter. The Clerk is hereby directed to place the required notices in the official newspaper, The Kingston Daily Freeman.
