    CMO A PUBLICATION FOR TBHC PHYSICIANSUPDATE AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS SPRING 2021 A Message from Dr. Kondamudi – Vasantha Kondamudi, MD, Chief Medical Officer In our last fall issue, I looked back on the COVID spring surge, how our clinicians and all of TBHC stepped up to the challenges, and the lessons we learned. This issue, I am so relieved and happy to report that I’m focusing on the future. And the future means the COVID-19 vaccine.

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.
