A05393 Memo:

NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A5393A
 
SPONSOR: Epstein
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the private housing finance law, in relation to includ- ing landlord training classes in the definitions of neighborhood preser- vation activities and housing preservation and community renewal activ- ities   PURPOSE: Includes landlord training classes in the definition of neighborhood preservation activities.   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1. Subdivision 5 of section 902 of the private housing finance law, as amended by chapter 295 of the laws of 2012. Provides that the neighborhood preservation activities must administer landlord training classes. Section 2. Subdivision 5 of section 1002 of the private housing finance law, as amended by chapter 668 of the laws of 1985. Provides that the Housing preservation and community renewal activities activities must administer landlord training classes. Section 3. States the effective date.   JUSTIFICATION: With the passage of tenants right's reform, and the changing landscape for landlords during the COVID pandemic, there is a growing need to educate landlords. Knowledge of the recent changes in procedural requirements, changes in the laws and executive orders pertaining to tenants rights, building codes, and a legal eviction process is crucial to ensure that tenants are not harassed or illegally removed from their homes. Many small landlords are not large enough for the income they earn in rent to be their sole source of income. Without understanding the risks and obligations inherent to the business landlords may find themselves struggling to maintain their properties. Adding landlord training to the definitions of the neighborhood preservation activities and housing preservation and community renewal activities gives poten- tial and existing landlords the valuable tools they need to be well prepared, good actors in our communities.   LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: This is a new bill.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None to the State.   EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.
