City Council Initiative 506-A

The New York City Council's Environmental Protection Committee is meeting next week to discuss:

"A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the creation of a comprehensive wetlands protection policy for New York city. Preconsidered Int____ - By Council Member - A Local Law - To amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to coordination between the department of buildings and other governmental agencies when development is proposed for the city’s coastal zone..."

I'm not a lawyer, so it's hard to determine if it will actually give more protection to our city's wetlands. You can read the calendar event here and Int 0506-2007 here.
