Council Member Shekar Krishnan joined street vendors and City Council colleagues on the steps of City Hall Monday afternoon to celebrate the enactment of a new law reducing criminal liability for street vendors, the first bill enacted as part of the Street Vendor Reform Package.
Local Law 122, sponsored by Krishnan as Intro 47B last year, came into effect on Monday, March 9, after the City Council overrode a veto from Mayor Eric Adams last September .
