GLICK, TAYLOR, ROSENTHAL -- read once and referred to the Committee on Housing AN ACT to amend the multiple dwelling law, in relation to the status of an interim multiple dwelling unit as a protected occupant's primary residence The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem- bly, do enact as follows: 1 Section 1.
