NYC cites Spike Lee’s production company over illegal parking spots
cited for “illegally” extending its garage’s curb cut, in order to facilitate illegal parking, creating a “hazard.”A city official said the standard penalty is $2,500, though the final amount won’t be determined until after a hearing.The city’s traffic rules ban the “unofficial reserving of parking space.”The auteur’s company painted the curbline yellow in front of 75 South Elliot Place, to make it appear part of the garage’s entryway — and off-limits to the public.
