Council adopts parking-code changes including expanded intersection no-parking zone

Feb 18, 2026

After a public hearing, staff explained four components to the parking local law — reserved zones at City Hall, parking signage for the Maze Hook and Ladder building, ticketing for vehicles parked outside striping (including a $75 fine), and expanding a no-parking zone near Fishkill Avenue/Main Street to 60 feet — and the council adopted the changes by voice vote.

The full story

Staff presented four components of a proposed local law to update Beacon's parking code: (1) change named reserved parking spaces at City Hall to tow-away reserved zones; (2) maintain three signposted resident spaces at the Maze Hook and Ladder building following its sale and rename the lot; (3) authorize enforcement for vehicles parked outside striping, with a $75 ticket; and (4) extend the no-parking area at a key intersection from the standard 30 feet to 60 feet to improve fire apparatus turning radius.
