New York, Friday,  November 1, 2013Here is a case study of a strip of small businesses in Bayside at 220 Street and Horace Harding Expressway that are being plagued by new parking regulations of the NYC Dept of Transportation. These businesses thrive on rush hour traffic and the new regulations prevent customers from parking during rush hour.  Customers are getting $150 tickets and they don’t come back. This is hurting the business owner’s bottom line, their ability to pay the rent and meet business expenses.  NYC DOT recently changed to these arbitrary new parking rules which are inconsistent with the rules up the block which allow all day parking. See the linked photos and video of John Konyoudjian, owner of Mt. Ararat Bakery.
These frustrated businessmen reached out to everyone for help, but no one would help them. Where is Councilman Weprin who should be handling this issue and helping to remove the obstacles to thriving businesses? Instead Joe Concannon is on the job as City Councilman fighting against the capricious rules of a city agency that is killing small businesses.
