16 pages of rules, and four hundred new hires of personnel to enforce them, are the response of New York’s government to demands to reopen restaurants for indoor dining, particularly now that the weather is turning cooler.
The Throggs Neck BID staff attended a meeting held at the 45 Precinct on September 22 that was convened by the police to inform local food service businesses about the rules that must be followed for indoor dining.
The NYPD did not make the rules and does not have primary responsibility for enforcement, but it will have a role in responding to violations.
