A.
Purpose, intent and findings. The City Council has found and determined
that residents living in the Sutton Manor neighborhood are suffering
interference to the tranquility and quiet enjoyment of their neighborhood
by reason of visitors and users of the nearby New Rochelle Station,
by shoppers, diners and users of New Rochelle's downtown area,
and by owners of commercial vehicles from the villages, towns, boroughs
and cities neighboring Sutton Manor. Each of the foregoing individuals
park in the Sutton Manor as a free and convenient alternative to paid,
permit parking in and around New Rochelle and its surrounds. This
use has caused significant safety issues, refuse and sanitation problems,
traffic hazards, congestion, air and noise pollution and other disturbances
which cumulatively have severely deteriorated the peace, tranquility
and quality of life of the residents of this neighborhood. For the
foregoing reasons, the City Council has decided to enact the residential
parking permit system set forth herein.
