 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 January 24, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. FELDER -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Cities 1

 AN ACT to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in
 relation to requiring all city agencies issuing summonses to document
 violations by photographic evidence when possible and practicable

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

 1 Section 1. Title 7 of the administrative code of the city of New York
 2 is amended by adding a new chapter 10 to read as follows:
 3 CHAPTER 10
 4 EVIDENCE FOR AGENCY SUMMONS
 5 § 7-1001 Photographic evidence for agency summons. 1. All city agen-
 6 cies issuing summonses that are subject to review by any entity within
 7 the office of administrative tribunals and hearings shall review all of
 8 the violations for which a summons may be issued to develop a list of
 9 violations that can be proven through the use of photographic evidence.
 10 2. For any violation appearing on these lists, city agencies shall
 11 document such violations by photographic evidence taken at the time of
 12 the issuance of a summons. Such photographic evidence may be gathered by
 13 using a camera, mobile phone, or any other device capable of producing
 14 an electronic picture file.
 15 3. When it is either impracticable or impossible for a city agency to
 16 document a violation appearing on such lists as prescribed in subdivi-
 17 sion two of this section, the issuing agent or officer shall include a
 18 statement within the summons explaining why it was impracticable or
 19 impossible to do so.
 20 4. Photographic evidence shall be included in summons filings made
 21 available online at the office of administrative tribunals and hearing's
 22 website, allowing a respondent to view the photographic evidence that
 23 has been collected against them.

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