Jill:

We've been trying to get a community garden bill through the NYC council for
over a year now ( it's still in conference.) 

I suggest you go into the links page of the American Community Gardening
Association web site and contact our Canadian neighbors. Both Toronto and
Montreal have highly enlightened community gardening policies ( based in
large part on the European allotment garden system.) 

http://www.communitygarden.org/

This listserve's archives has interesting links to European organizations of
allotment gardens. It's worth a search:

Happy gardening,
