Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to continuation of senior citizen rent increase exemption benefits after a period of ineligibility due to a head of household's temporary increase in income

AI Summary

This bill amends the administrative code of the City of New York to allow senior citizens who temporarily became ineligible for rent increase exemption benefits due to a temporary increase in their household income to regain those benefits once their income returns to a qualifying level. The bill specifies that the senior can apply to resume the previous rent increase exemption order or tax abatement certificate for the same dwelling unit, and the exemption will cover the difference between the current maximum rent and the last rent the senior paid prior to the temporary ineligibility, plus any non-exempt rent increases that occurred during the period of ineligibility.
