Residents in
Elmont were frustrated over vehicles blocking driveways, and arena
customers hanging out near homes.
The Hempstead Town Board
voted unanimously to enact the new regulations.
The limits will keep
non-residents from parking on roads off Hempstead Turnpike.
The Town Board is also
looking at other possible parking restrictions.
Greg Blower, the director of communications for the Town of Hempstead, told News 12 in a statement, "The Hempstead Town Board responded to the needs of the residents surrounding the state property that houses the arena in an effort to preserve the quality of life and enhance safety in the community."
