Monday Bulletin: 96th Street Bus Lanes Will Stay; Brokers' Fees for Renters Will Go (Sort of); Early Voting Off to a Strong Start
Briefly

The article discusses recent weather forecasts predicting mostly cloudy conditions with possible showers midweek, followed by warming trends for the weekend. Additionally, it notes a lawsuit regarding bus lanes on West 96th Street, which was dismissed by a judge citing no irreparable harm to residents. The redesign of the street was aimed at enhancing traffic flow and safety for bus riders. Moreover, it briefly mentions a recent drop in apartment rental costs due to a new law addressing broker's fees.
"Despite petitioner's protestations, a bus lane does not 'sever' a resident's connection to the street in front of their building nor does it 'make it impossible to make deliveries,'"
"The redesign added 1.7 miles of bus lanes in both directions, as well as pedestrian safety improvements, neighborhood loading zones, and left-turn bays to streamline traffic flow."
