AI Summary

This bill requires the installation of induction loop listening systems in certain buildings open to the public, such as auditoriums, theaters, libraries, and restaurants, when those buildings undergo new construction or substantial renovation. The bill defines an "induction loop listening system" as a hardwired assistive listening system that produces a signal received directly by hearing aids and cochlear implants equipped with telecoil features. The bill also allows building owners to request an exemption if the installation of the system would be impractical, and directs the Commissioner of Community Affairs to promulgate rules and regulations to implement the requirements of the bill.
