This ordinance seeks to establish a limit on the number of commercial vehicles parking on City streets. While larger commercial vehicles are restricted from parking in excess of three hours unless actively loading or unloading and in absence of special permission, there is not currently a limit on the number of commercial vehicles weighing less than 10,000 pounds an household or business may park. This ordinance would limit the parking of such commercial vehicles to two per City block per household or business. This will free up street parking throughout the City that residents may use for non-commercial vehicles.
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 375 OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF ALBANY (UNIFIED SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE) BY CHANGING THE ZONING CLASSIFICATION OF A PORTION OF PARCELS CURRENTLY KNOWN AS 164 DELAWARE AVENUE AND PT. 164 DELAWARE AVENUE FROM LAND CONSERVATION (LC) TO MIXED-USE NEIGHBORHOOD EDGE (MU-NE) AND AMENDING THE ZONING MAP ACCORDINGLY
This ordinance amends the zoning map of the City of Albany by changing the zoning of a portion of parcels currently known as 164 Delaware Avenue and Pt. 164 Delaware Avenue from Land Conservation (LC) to Mixed-Use Neighborhood Edge (MU-NE). The proposed rezoning would allow for the reasonable reuse of the building and lands known as the "Sunshine School," including the James Hall Office, an individually listed historic property and National Historic Landmark. The change proposed herein may be subject to the review of the City of Albany Planning Board, and, pursuant to General Municipal Law § 239-m(3)(b)(ii), it is subject to review by the Albany County Planning Board.
A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL AMENDING THE CITY OF ALBANY CAPITAL RESOURCE CORPORATION'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AUTHORIZING THE CONTINUATION OF THE AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF ALBANY CAPITAL RESOURCE CORPORATION TO ISSUE OBLIGATIONS TO FINANCE PROJECTS TO BE UNDERTAKEN BY THE CORPORATION
To continue for at least another four years the CRC’s authorization to issue obligations to provide financial assistance to projects owned or operated by not-for-profit corporations. The resolution originally passed by the Council in 2010 placed an expiration date of April 15, 2012 on the CRC. The Council previously passed resolutions in 2012, 2014, 2018, 2020, and 2022 extending the expiration date to, most recently, April 12, 2026. This resolution will again extend the CRC’s authority to issue obligations to finance projects to be undertaken by not-for-profit corporations, for another four years, until April 12, 2030.
