Light It Up

ATTN Christian people: don't go thinkin that just cause Christ died on the cross, that gives you the right to put your little twinkly little Christmas lights in our city owned trees. N'uh Uh! You need a permit for that!

"Any person, association, business, and other special interest group wishing to install seasonal lights on any tree or shrub in city rights–of–way or other public places under the jurisdiction of the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation, must make a written request and complete a no–fee permit supplied by the respective Borough Forestry Office."

You can get the form right here.

So yeah, obvs we can't really compete with Dyker Heights, but as FIPS tipster Chris suggests, "Let's light this shit UP!"

Also Happy Hanukkah!
