Key Hearing On Congestion Pricing Friday; 10 AM at Bar Ass'n
Friday, June 8, 2007 the pending proposal for Congestion Pricing gets an unusual test. A joint legislative committee hearing (many committees, many chairs) is set to start at 10AM at the Association of the Bar at 42 West 44th Street. If you’re interested and you can, go. It should be interesting because Assembly Member Richard Brodsky, so far an outspoken plan opponent, will have a leading role there. An interesting pro-congestion pricing coalition, The Campaign For New York’s Future is calling for people to show up by 8:15 (The doors open at 9AM). (Annie Karni's NY Sun coverage of the hearing is here .)
UPDATE:Congestion pricing supporter, Senate Majority Leader Bruno has introduced the bill says Liz Benjamin and The Albany Project's Lipris . Streetsblog has the 154 page text if you're into self-abuse. Has a deal been struck?
