The number of parking permits was slashed by 46 percent, to 78,000 permits. By handing out fewer parking passes each year, the City is encouraging more civil servants to ride public transit, easing traffic congestion while freeing up parking spots for others. Despite the reduction in city-issued parking permits, the system remains broken. Each step in the process—from creation of the permits, to distribution and enforcement—is fatally flawed, creating a system wrought with abuse and lacking effective oversight. In the present study, researchers at Transportation Alternatives canvassed five New York City neighborhoods and found that a majority of permit holders—57 percent—were either agency permits used to park illegally—double-parking or ditching their cars on sidewalks and bus lanes, or totally bogus permits. The study found that 24 percent of permits on display were illicitly photocopied, fraudulent or otherwise invalid. Clearly, further reform is needed. Modernizing New York City’s two-tiered parking system can help local businesses by freeing up space for customers and deliveries.

Trinity’s strategy development is known as the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). Trinity has been involved in the assessment of its community’s health priorities for the past 18 years through its efforts in the establishment of a CHNA for the Quad Cities area beginning in 2002. In 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was enacted by Congress with the goal of improving access to healthcare services for Americans. As part of the Affordable Care Act, non-profit hospitals are required to submit a Community Health Needs Assessment and Improvement Plan every three years. In addition to our commitment to serving the needs of the community, Trinity’s CHIP also fulfills these regulatory requirements. In late 2014, UnityPoint Health - Trinity partnered with the Quad City Health Initiative and other community partners to begin the process of collecting data and planning the operationalization of the Community Health Improvement Plan for 2019-2021.
