NYPD Cancels Proposed Parade Rules Change, Will Revise

Today the NYPD issued the following notice:

"In view of comments already received on the proposed revision to Chapter 19 of Title 38 of the Official Compilation of Rules of the City of New York, the Police Department has withdrawn the proposed revisions regarding parade permits and will publish new ones in the City Record narrower in scope with a new hearing date. As a result, the public hearing scheduled for Wednesday, August 23, 2006 has been cancelled."

This is verified by Susan Howard of the National Lawyers Guild and Transportation Alternatives.
