A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring any person who marks a street or sidewalk for the purpose of paving, maintaining or restoring said street or sidewalk to remove all such marks once the work is complete.

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1. Subchapter one of chapter one of title nineteen of the administrative code of the city of New York is amended to add a new section 19-122.1 to read as follows:

§  19-122.1 Removal of temporary marks. Any contractor who paves, maintains, or restores, or causes to be paved, maintained or restored, any street or sidewalk, shall within seven days after the pavement, maintenance or restoration is complete, remove from such street or sidewalk any mark of any kind that is visible to the public that was placed on or at the location in connection with said pavement, maintenance or restoration and that was not intended by the contractor as permanent. In addition to any penalties which may be imposed for violation of this section, the city may cause such mark to be removed at the expense of any party neglecting or refusing to perform such removal. Any such party shall be liable to the city for the amount expended by the city for such removal.
