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

 2 as amended by chapter 131 of the laws of 1979, is amended and a new
 3 subdivision 8 is added to read as follows:
 4 4. The head of the department may, on the request of the owner or
 5 [his] such owner's certified agent, issue a temporary certificate of
 6 compliance or occupancy for a multiple dwelling or a section or a part
 7 thereof for a period of ninety days or less, provided that such certif-
 8 icate shall bear the endorsement that the dwelling has been inspected by
 9 the department and complies with all the requirements of this chapter,
 10 and that such temporary occupancy will not jeopardize life, health or
 11 property. Such temporary certificate may be renewed once at the
 12 discretion of the head of the department for similar periods but shall
 13 not extend[, together with such renewals,] beyond a total period of [two
 14 years] one hundred eighty days from the date of its original issuance.

 16 shall be liable for a civil penalty of not more than twenty thousand
 17 dollars.
 18 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
