A Local Law in relation to reporting on violations issued to three-quarter housing

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1.  Three-quarter housing task force report. a. For the purposes of this section, the term “three-quarter housing task force” means the group of representatives from the department of social services/human resources administration, department of buildings, the fire department, and the department of housing preservation and development responsible for inspecting certain dwellings identified by the task force where ten or more unrelated adults are living.

b. The mayor’s office of operations shall provide to the council and publish on its website quarterly reports on the findings of the three-quarter housing task force. The first such report shall be due 30 days following the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2017, and all subsequent reports shall be due 30 days following the last day of each succeeding calendar quarter. Such reports shall include, but need not be limited to, the following information:

1. For each building inspected by the three-quarter housing task force, the number of violations issued, disaggregated by agency, provided that each building shall be identified in such a way that does not disclose the building’s address; and

2. The number of individuals relocated from buildings inspected by the three-quarter housing task force, disaggregated by whether such individuals were given a rental assistance subsidy, the type of subsidy provided, and the type of housing to which the individual was relocated, including but not limited to private apartments, single room occupancy dwellings or temporary housing.

c. The first such report shall cover the period from June 1, 2015 to March 31, 2017.

§ 2. This local law takes effect immediately and expires and is deemed repealed on January 1, 2019.
