Establishes a central business district toll exemption for certain emergency medical technicians and fire protection inspectors
This bill exempts certain New York City emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and fire protection inspectors from central business district tolls when performing their official duties. Specifically, it covers EMTs, advanced EMTs, and fire protection inspectors (including associate inspectors) who work for the City of New York or the New York City Fire Department in designated roles. The law removes toll charges for these employees when traveling through the central business district as part of their job responsibilities. The exemption applies immediately upon the bill's enactment.
