Temporary construction regulation nailed to two trees on Pacific Street
Atlantic Yards Watch
Could it be because all the metal sign poles had already been removed?

A temporary construction regulation establishing no parking in the vicinity of the Carlton Avenue Bridge reconstruction has been posted to two trees on Pacific Street. Signs associated with "Maintenance and Protection of Traffic" (MPT) are obtained and installed by a contractor for FCRC. It is illegal to nail into street trees in NYC. The fine of $150 dollars for each posting is doubled when the sign is nailed to the tree.
No notice of a change to the MPT on Pacific Street was included in the most recent construction alert. Approximately 4 to 5 parking spaces have been eliminated.
NoLandGrab: We're most surprised that they could even find trees to illegally nail the signs to, given how Bruce Ratner has already chopped down a Forest's worth of trees in Prospect Heights.
