249 and 252 Pilgrim Avenue Handicap Spaces
At a glance
Based on auto-generated captions plus the posted minutes; names and details may be misheard.
- What: Giuseppa Girardi's petition to move the handicap space at 249 Pilgrim Ave. to 252 Pilgrim Ave. (in practice, to put two existing handicap spaces back to back).
- Where it stands: recommended for approval 2-0 on 2026-08-19.
- Next: City Council adoption; the Council vote was not found in the records reviewed.
The case
- Stephen S. Rolle: ordinances from 2012 place one handicap space, 22 ft of general parking, then a second handicap space. The signs were installed back to back, and nobody currently at the City knows why. A 311 complaint this year led DPW to re-sign to match the ordinance.
- The family (the petitioner's son) said the request was never to add a space but to put the spaces back together across from 252. A neighbor on Zoom said the aunt who used the space at 249 has died and asked for the sign at 249 to be removed; no petition to remove a space was before the committee.
- Rolle recommended putting the two spaces back to back, which also frees the space in front of 249 for general parking.
