Yesterday Community Board 6 District Manager Craig Hammerman sent out a note reminding residents that the city has tightened restrictions on block parties, reducing “the total amount of time for block parties from what had been up to 12 hours (from 9am to 9pm) to a new maximum of any 9-hour period between 9am and 9pm.” In addition, the city is now requiring that all applications for block parties be submitted electronically; the new procedures and rules are explained in this PDF memo. Killjoy or good news?
