 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 February 3, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sens. PARKER, ADDABBO, ASHBY, WEBB -- read twice and
 ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on
 Housing, Construction and Community Development

 AN ACT to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in
 relation to continuation of senior citizen rent increase exemption
 benefits after a period of ineligibility due to a head of household's
 temporary increase in income

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 26-605 of the administrative code of the city of
 2 New York is amended by adding a new subdivision (e) to read as follows:
 3 (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a head of a household
 4 to whom a rent increase exemption order/tax abatement certificate has
 5 been issued under this chapter, chapter three or chapter four of this
 6 title who has become ineligible for such rent increase exemption
 7 order/tax abatement certificate as a result of a temporary increase in
 8 income for a period of time that does not exceed two years, may, upon
 9 resumption of receipt of an income that qualifies for such
 10 order/certificate under this chapter, chapter three or chapter four of
 11 this title, apply to the supervising agency, subject to the terms and
 12 conditions imposed by such relevant chapter, for a rent increase
 13 exemption order/tax abatement certificate relating to the same dwelling
 14 unit to which the original rent increase exemption order/tax abatement
 15 certificate applied, and such order/certificate shall provide that the
 16 head of the household shall be exempt from paying that portion of the
 17 maximum rent for the dwelling unit which exceeds the last rent that the
 18 head of the household was required to pay in the dwelling unit prior to
 19 his or her increase in income which caused the temporary ineligibility,
 20 plus any non-exempt increases in such maximum rent which may have
 21 occurred during the temporary period of ineligibility.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
