 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN ASSEMBLY

 January 31, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. GRAY -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Economic Development

 AN ACT to amend the alcoholic beverage control law, in relation to law
 enforcement responses and premises closing times

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

 1 Section 1. Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited as
 2 the "responsible neighborhood preservation act".
 3 § 2. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature hereby finds and
 4 declares that the operation on licensed premises for the sale of alco-
 5 holic beverages can have a significant impact on the quality of life in
 6 the neighborhoods where such premises are located. The legislature
 7 further finds that repeated law enforcement interventions at the same
 8 premises can be indicative of management practices that are detrimental
 9 to the health, safety, and welfare of the community. It is, therefore,
 10 the intent of the legislature to encourage the responsible operation of
 11 such premises and to provide for the mitigation of adverse impacts on
 12 the community.
 13 § 3. The alcoholic beverage control law is amended by adding a new
 14 section 106-c to read as follows:
 15 § 106-c. Law enforcement responses. 1. Notwithstanding any other
 16 provision of law, rule, or regulation to the contrary, any licensed
 17 premises under this chapter that has required a response by law enforce-
 18 ment officers on more than three separate occasions in any one calendar
 19 month shall have its closing hours adjusted to no later than midnight on
 20 all days of the week, for a period of no less than six months.
 21 2. For the purposes of this section, a "law enforcement response"
 22 shall mean any instance where law enforcement officers are dispatched to
 23 the licensed premises in response to a call or complaint alleging activ-
 24 ities, including but not limited to disorderly conduct, noise

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

 A. 4072 2

 1 violations, fights, disturbances, public intoxication, or other criminal
 2 activity.
 3 3. The state liquor authority shall promulgate rules and regulations
 4 necessary for the enforcement of this section, including but not limited
 5 to the establishment of a process for documenting and verifying law
 6 enforcement responses and a process for the licensed premises to appeal
 7 the adjustment of closing hours.
 8 § 4. Severability clause. If any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivi-
 9 sion, section or part of this act shall be adjudged by any court of
 10 competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect,
 11 impair, or invalidate the remainder thereof, but shall be confined in
 12 its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, section
 13 or part thereof directly involved in the controversy in which such judg-
 14 ment shall have been rendered. It is hereby declared to be the intent of
 15 the legislature that this act would have been enacted even if such
 16 invalid provisions had not been included herein.
 17 § 5. This act shall take effect on the ninetieth day after it shall
 18 have become a law.
