Small Businesses in the Bronx and across the city could see a reprieve from burdensome fines with upcoming legislation designed to enhance the transparency and fairness for enforcing city regulations.
Council Member Oswald Feliz, who represents the 15th district in the Bronx, said he plans to introduce a bill requiring the city to track and map fines frequently issued to small businesses and create support systems for small business owners who want to improve their compliance with city codes.
