NYC L.L. 2009/014 In relation to the creation of a Bed Bug Advisory Board

L.L. 2009/014 Enactment date: 3/18/2009 Int. No. 57-A By Council Members Brewer, the Speaker (Council Member Quinn), Foster, Gentile, Gerson, Gonzalez, James, Mark-Viverito, Martinez, Mendez, Nelson, Palma, Sanders Jr., Weprin, White Jr., Koppell, Liu, Recchia Jr., Sears, Vallone Jr., Garodnick, Jackson, Avella, Arroyo, Dickens, Mealy, Lappin, Stewart, Rivera and Gennaro A Local Law in relation to the creation of a Bed Bug Advisory Board. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative findings and declaration. Sometimes referred to as "red coats," "chinches," or "mahogany flats," bed bugs, Cimex lectularius Linnaeus, are blood-feeding parasites of humans, chickens, bats and occasionally domesticated animals. Bed bugs are wingless and spread from infested to non-infested areas through the transportation of clothing, luggage, furniture and bedding. In the early stages of infestation, bed bugs are found mainly in the tufts, seems and folds of the mattress and bed covers. However, they later spread to cracks and crevices in the bedsteads. According to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene ("DOHMH"), bed bugs often seek refuge in bedding during the day and feed on occupants at night. Bed bugs feed primarily on humans by piercing the skin as people sleep. Although bed bugs are not generally considered human disease carriers, they inject a fluid to assist in drawing blood, which causes a welt that becomes irritated, inflamed and uncomfortable. After feeding, bed bugs crawl back into hiding, where they may remain for 80 to 140 days before returning to feed. Bed bug infestations diminished substantially after the development and use of modern insecticides, such as DDT. However, pest management professionals have noticed a marked increase in bed-bug related complaints since 1995. Experts believe this may be related to the increased number of people traveling and returning from abroad with these insects hiding in their suitcases and clothing. According to the DOHMH, the use of appropriate pesticides and the thorough cleaning of all bedding with water at extremely high temperature may help reduce the chance of infestation. However, even with professional extermination, a bed bug problem may be impossible to eliminate. If even one adult female bed bug survives, the area may quickly become infested again as the adult female lays one to five eggs every day and each egg takes only 17 to 28 days to hatch. The Council finds that the Cimex lectularius population is ubiquitous and affects the quality of life of residents throughout the City. Based on this finding, the Council determines that it is necessary to create an advisory board to study this issue further and draft concrete recommendations for the most effective methods for treating and preventing bed bug infestations in New York City. § 2. Bed Bug Advisory Board. a. There shall be an advisory board to study health concerns associated with cimex lectularius, commonly referred to as the bed bug, and to make specific recommendations to the mayor and council for the prevention and treatment of bed bug infestations throughout the city. b. Such advisory board shall consist of ten members as follows: i. Three members shall be appointed by the mayor, provided that at least one such member shall be from the pest management industry and shall have experience in bed bug control and/or extermination and at least one member shall have advanced specialized training in and knowledge of entomology; ii. Two members shall be appointed by the speaker of the council, provided that at least one such member shall have a background in community health; iii. The commissioners of the department of health and mental hygiene, the department of consumer affairs, the department of sanitation, the department of information technology and telecommunications, and the department of housing and preservation, or the designees of such commissioners, shall serve ex officio. iv. At its first meeting, the advisory board shall select a chairperson from among its members by majority vote of the advisory board. c. Each member, other than members serving in an ex officio capacity, shall serve for a term of 9 months, to commence after the final member of the advisory board is appointed. Any vacancies in the membership of the advisory board shall be filled in the same manner as the original appointment. A person filling such vacancy shall serve for the unexpired portion of the term of the succeeded member. d. No member of the advisory board shall be removed from office except for cause and upon notice and hearing by the appropriate appointing official. e. Members of the advisory board shall serve without compensation and shall meet as necessary. f. The advisory board shall issue a report to the mayor and council no later than nine months after the final member of the advisory board is appointed. Such report shall include specific recommendations on the following topics: i. Prevention and treatment of bed bug infestations in private dwellings; ii. Prevention and treatment of bed bug infestations in public accommodations and institutions, including, but not limited to, schools, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, jails and residential shelters; iii. Tracking and reporting of bed bug infestations; iv. Disposal of bed bug infested items; v. Bed bug training and/or education for urban pest management professionals; vi. Bed bug training and/or education for city workers; vii. The development and most effective distribution of public education and resource materials on bed bug prevention and treatment, including, but not limited to, information on the rights and responsibilities of landlords, tenants and homeowners. g. The advisory board shall terminate upon the publication of the report. § 3. This local law shall take effect immediately.

NYC L.L. 2009/021 In relation to coordination between the department of buildings and other governmental agencies when development is proposed for the city's coastal and …

L.L. 2009/021 Enactment date: 3/18/2009 Int. No. 919-A By Council Members Vann, Comrie, De Blasio, Fidler, Gerson, James, Koppell, Recchia Jr., Sanders Jr., White Jr., Arroyo, Garodnick, Eugene, Gennaro and Weprin. A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to coordination between the department of buildings and other governmental agencies when development is proposed for the city's coastal and water-sensitive inland zones. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The Council finds that development in the New York City coastal zone is subject to the jurisdiction of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and typically requires issuance of a tidal wetlands permit and a coastal erosion hazard permit. Such development may also require the issuance of a freshwater wetlands permit if regulated freshwater wetlands are on the property or a floating objects permit, depending on development planned. DEC's Coastal Erosion Management Regulations are designed, in part, to restrict or prohibit development in natural protective feature areas so that new buildings or structures are placed a safe distance from areas of active erosion and the impacts of coastal storms. These regulations are also intended to restrict development involving public investment in services or facilities likely to encourage new permanent development in coastal erosion hazard areas. Other approvals may be required for development in the coastal zone, including approvals by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The Council finds, however, that applicants may not be aware of the need to coordinate with the Department of Environmental Conservation and other appropriate agencies when projects are located within the coastal or water-sensitive inland zones or that applicants for permits may deliberately fail to disclose on their permit application to the Department of Buildings that their properties are located within the such zones. Therefore the Council finds that coordination with the Department of Environmental Conservation and other agencies must be required by the Department of Buildings in any case where an application for development is located within the coastal and/or water sensitive inland zones of New York City. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect on July 1, 2009 and shall apply to applications for construction document approval pending on such date, except that the commissioner of buildings shall take such measures as are necessary for its implementation prior to such date, including the promulgation of rules.

NYC L.L. 2009/024 In relation to the prohibition of activities to prevent access to reproductive health care facilities

L.L. 2009/024 Enactment date: 4/20/2009 Int. No. 826-A By the Speaker (Council Member Quinn) and Council Members Reyna, Lappin, Foster, Yassky, Seabrook, Sears, de Blasio, Arroyo, Comrie, Fidler, Garodnick, Gonzalez, Jackson, James, Koppell, Liu, Mark-Viverito, Martinez, Nelson, Palma, Sanders Jr., Stewart, Weprin, White Jr., Gerson, Mendez, Gennaro, Brewer, Rivera, Dickens and The Public Advocate (Gotbaum) A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the prohibition of activities to prevent access to reproductive health care facilities. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The council of the city of New York finds that the right to access reproductive health services is an important personal right protected by state and federal law. Likewise, the right to peaceably protest and express one's views is protected by state and federal law. Such actions include, but are not limited to, the right to speak, march, demonstrate, picket, pray, associate with others in expressive behavior or engage in other activity protected by the First Amendment. The council is aware that there are individuals or groups of individuals who may exceed the boundaries of lawful First Amendment expression by engaging in physical activities that prevent access to reproductive health care facilities or by engaging in activities that unlawfully harass or intimidate individuals trying to access such facilities. Such activities unlawfully interfere with both the operators of reproductive health care facilities and all individuals seeking free entrance and egress from such facilities. The council finds that current law does not adequately protect reproductive health care facilities and those who work in or seek services from such facilities. Therefore, the council finds it appropriate for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare, to enact new legislation to strengthen the prohibitions on interference with access to reproductive health care facilities and services. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 7. This local law shall take effect ninety days after its enactment into law. Chart 1. Federal Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) (42 USC § 248) State Penal Law (NY Penal Law § 240.70) Intent · Requires that intent be established when proving that any of the prohibited activities occurred. · Requires that intent be established when proving that any of the prohibited activities occurred. Protection of Persons · Prohibits someone from using force, the threat of force or physical obstruction in order to injure, intimidate or interfere with anyone obtaining or providing reproductive health services. · Also prohibits the attempt to do any of the above · Prohibits someone from using force, the threat of force or physical obstruction to injure, intimidate or interfere with anyone: o obtaining or providing health care services. o in order to discourage him or her from obtaining or providing health care services. · Also prohibits the attempt to do any of the above. Protection of Facilities · Prohibits damaging or destroying the property of a reproductive health care facility (or attempting to do so). · Prohibits damaging the property of a reproductive health care facility (or attempting to do so). Remedies & Penalties · Any person can bring civil action to enforce. o But, a violation of the prohibitions related to persons can only be brought by someone obtaining, trying to obtain, providing or trying to provide services in a reproductive health care facility. · U.S. Attorney General and state attorney generals may seek civil remedies injunctive relief and compensatory damages. · Second degree is class A misdemeanor. · First degree is a class E felony. Chart 2. Current Law What will change? Intent to prevent another from obtaining or rendering, or assisting in obtaining or rendering any reproductive health care services or counseling must be proven in all cases, including prosecutions for: Physically obstructing or blocking another person from (a) accessing an entryway or exit of a clinic, or (b) the premises in which a clinic is located. Following and harassing another in or about a public place placing another in reasonable fear of physical harm. Current law is difficult to enforce because of its intent requirement. Under the new legislation, all the same activities (plus new ones) are illegal, police would not need to "see" intent to make an arrest, and proof of such intent would no longer be required for any prosecution under the law. As long as the above elements, including intent, are met, the police can make an arrest under this statute anywhere around a clinic Because intent is impossible to "see," it the old law made it difficult for the police to determine whether the law was being broken so arrests rarely occurred. Under the new law, if any illegal behavior occurs within 15 feet of a clinic, it would be clear the law is being broken. If intent can be discerned and is proven, the prohibited conduct is an A misdemeanor, if not it is likely to be a B misdemeanor or violation If prohibited conduct occurs within 15 feet of clinic premises, it would be an A misdemeanor, if not it would likely be a B misdemeanor or violation. All arrests AND prosecutions require a complainant who was obtaining or rendering or assisting another in obtaining or rendering reproductive health services or counseling - "merely" blocking an entrance or exit does not violate the law. Arrests can be made based on observation alone if a protestor is knowingly obstructing or blocking the premises of a clinic - no complainant is required Clinics and premises in which they are located are protected, but premises is not defined Premises would be specifically defined to include both parking lots and driveways, which is critically important for clinics in the outer boroughs and expands the 15 foot area. No opportunity for a clinic to complain based on protesters' activities. Knowingly interfering with the operation of a clinic would be a violation of the law. Peaceful protest is not unlawful No change.

NYC L.L. 2009/031 In relation to the creation of a comprehensive wetlands protection strategy for New York City

L.L. 2009/031 Enactment date: 5/26/2009 Int. No. 506-A By Council Members Gennaro, Brewer, Fidler, Gentile, Gonzalez, James, Koppell, Liu, Nelson, Sanders Jr., Weprin, Gerson, White Jr., Martinez, DeBlasio, Vann, Felder, Mitchell, Eugene, Recchia Jr., Vallone Jr., Crowley, Garodnick, Lappin and Katz A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the creation of a comprehensive wetlands protection strategy for New York City. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The Council finds that wetlands serve a variety of critical functions important to the residents of New York City. These functions include filtration of pollutants, surface water storage, flood control, shoreline stabilization and prevention of erosion, stream flow maintenance including maintaining the aquatic habitat and opportunities for aesthetic appreciation of streams, groundwater recharge, sediment removal and nutrient recycling, promoting aquatic species productivity, biodiversity and provision of plant and wildlife habitat and enhancing recreational opportunities. Draining and filling wetlands impairs their functions and destroys native habitats. New York City has lost the majority of its wetlands to development, over time. The Council finds that to the maximum extent possible in consideration of competing land uses, preserving the remaining wetlands, creating new wetlands and undertaking actions designed to improve the functions of wetlands to the maximum extent possible is in the best interests of the City, and offers a way to respond to the challenges that will be presented by climate change and rising sea levels. The Council further finds that the existing law leaves gaps in wetlands protection and that it is necessary for the City to develop and implement a comprehensive wetlands protection strategy.

NYC L.L. 2009/047 In relation to authorizing the commissioner of finance to establish a temporary program for the resolution of outstanding default judgments issued by the …

L.L. 2009/047 Enactment date: 7/17/2009 Int. No. 1041 By Council Members Sears, the Speaker (Council Member Quinn), Weprin, Felder, Fidler, James, Liu, Mealy, Mitchell, Reyna, Dickens and Gonzalez A Local Law in relation to authorizing the commissioner of finance to establish a temporary program for the resolution of outstanding default judgments issued by the environmental control board. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Declaration of findings and legislative intent. The Council finds that too often notices of violation returnable to the environmental control board result in default judgments, payments for which remain uncollected; that the additional penalties for defaults create a special deterrence to payment in the present economic climate; that the city would benefit from the prompt and efficient resolution of such outstanding default judgments; that the environmental control board and the department of finance have embarked on a pilot program to permit respondents who are the subject of default judgments to resolve those judgments by admitting liability and paying the penalty associated with the underlying violation without paying an additional default penalty; that the results of that program show an expanded temporary default suspension program could enable respondents and the city to resolve many default judgments that would otherwise remain outstanding; that a temporary default resolution program is warranted for a period of ninety days; and that the city is now engaged in a comprehensive study that will, within the coming year, lead to a new approach to address permanently how to minimize the number of default judgments issued by the environmental control board and how best to collect and record debt created by the board's judgments. § 2. Temporary default resolution program. a. For purposes of this section, the following definitions apply: 1. "Base penalty" means, with respect to any notice of violation returnable to the environmental control board, the penalty that would be imposed upon a timely admission by the respondent or finding of liability after a hearing, pursuant to the environmental control board penalty schedule, without regard to reductions of penalty in cases of mitigation or involving stipulations. 2. "Default judgment" means a judgment of the environmental control board, pursuant to subparagraph (d) of paragraph (1) of subdivision d of section 1049-a of the charter of the city of New York, determining a respondent's liability based upon that respondent's failure to plead within the time allowed by the rules of the environmental control board or failure to appear before the environmental control board on a designated hearing date or on a subsequent date following an adjournment. 3. "Default penalty" means a penalty imposed by the environmental control board, pursuant to section 1049-a of the charter of the city of New York, in the maximum amount prescribed by law for the violation charged. 4. "Environmental control board" means the environmental control board of the city of New York and its tribunal, as described in section 1049-a of the charter of the city of New York. 5. "Environmental control board penalty schedule" means the schedule of penalties adopted as a rule by the environmental control board or such predecessor schedule as may have applied on the date of the violation. 6. "Resolve" means, with respect to an outstanding judgment of the environmental control board, to conclude all legal proceedings in connection with a notice of violation. 7. "Respondent" means a person or entity named as the subject of a notice of violation returnable to, or a judgment issued by, the environmental control board, or such other person or entity who asserts legal responsibility for the liability of the person or entity named in the notice or the judgment. 8. "Temporary default resolution program" means the program authorized by this section. b. Subject to an appropriate authorizing resolution of the environmental control board, and notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, the commissioner of finance shall establish a temporary default resolution program for a ninety-day period, to be effective during the fiscal year of the city beginning July first, two thousand nine, to permit respondents who are subject to default judgments of the environmental control board to resolve such judgments by payment of base penalties without payment of default penalties and associated interest. c. Eligibility to participate in the temporary default resolution program shall be restricted to respondents who are subject to default judgments of the environmental control board, and the program shall apply only to default judgments. d. A respondent seeking to participate in the temporary default resolution program to resolve a default judgment arising out of a notice of violation that includes an order requiring the correction of a violation shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the city agency issuing the notice of violation that the condition cited in the notice of violation has been corrected. A default judgment may not be resolved under the temporary default resolution program if the respondent seeking the resolution cannot demonstrate that any correction required by an order has been made. Nothing contained herein shall require a city agency to issue or approve certificates of correction or the equivalent if such city agency does not have a program to do so as of the effective date of this local law. e. A respondent seeking resolution of a default judgment under the temporary default resolution program shall admit liability for the violation. A default judgment may not be resolved under the temporary default resolution program if the respondent seeking resolution of the judgment fails or refuses to admit liability. f. A respondent seeking resolution of a default judgment under the temporary default resolution program shall pay the base penalty for the violation that is the subject of the default judgment to be resolved. The base penalty amount shall be determined by referring to the environmental control board penalty schedule. A default judgment may not be resolved under the program unless the base penalty amount of the violation that is the subject of the default judgment can be determined from the notice of violation, default judgment and environmental control board penalty schedule alone. g. A respondent's resolution of a default judgment under the temporary default resolution program shall constitute a waiver of all legal and factual defenses to liability for the judgment at issue. A judgment resolved under the temporary default resolution program shall have the same legal force and effect as any other judgment issued by the environmental control board. h. A judgment of the environmental control board may not be resolved under the temporary default resolution program if the judgment was issued on or after May first, two thousand nine. i. The duration of the program shall be ninety days, provided that the program shall be extended for a reasonable period to the extent necessary to permit participation by any respondent who made application for approval of a certificate of correction, or the equivalent, for a violation that is the subject of a default judgment to be resolved by this program from any city agency within ninety days of the commencement of the program, but whose application was approved after such ninety-day period. After the program has concluded, any default judgment that remains outstanding and has not been resolved by this program shall continue to have full legal effectiveness and enforceability regardless of whether it could have been resolved under this program. j. The commissioner of finance shall publicize the temporary default resolution program provided in this section so as to maximize public awareness of and participation in such program. § 3. This local law shall take effect immediately.

No. 871-A By Council Members Yassky, Brewer, Comrie, Gonzalez, James, Koppell, Palma, Mendez, Gerson, Felder, White Jr., Vallone Jr., Foster, Mark-Viverito, Garodnick, Weprin, Seabrook, Gennaro, Nelson, Fidler, Gioia, DeBlasio, Reyna, Gentile, Jackson, Barron, Crowley, Sanders Jr., Sears, Mitchell, Vacca, Arroyo, Ferreras, Ulrich, Liu and the Public Advocate (Ms. Gotbaum) A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to bicycle access to office buildings. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 2. a. There shall be a temporary bicycle commuting task force to examine establishing partnerships with private entities to develop sheltered bicycle parking in public and/or private spaces. The task force shall be comprised of the commissioner of transportation or his or her designee, the commissioner of buildings or his or her designee, the commissioner of parks and recreation or his or her designee, the director of city planning or his or her designee and three representatives to be appointed by the speaker of the council. Upon the appointment of all of its members, the task force shall elect a chair from its membership at the first meeting of such task force. Members of the task force shall serve without compensation and shall meet when deemed necessary by the chair or upon the request of three members of the task force. The task force shall issue a report to the mayor and speaker by December 31, 2010. Such report shall include, but not be limited to, recommendations on establishing partnerships with private entities to develop sheltered bicycle storage in public and/or private spaces. Such report shall be posted on the city's website within seven days from its submission to the speaker and mayor. The task force shall cease to exist three months after the issuance of its report. b. At any time after the publication of the report required by subdivision a of this section, any group of geographically-related buildings that are subject to the provisions of section one of this local law may submit to the department of transportation a pilot project plan for a public/private partnership to provide sheltered bicycle storage in the vicinity of such buildings, which parking would be located within three blocks or seven hundred fifty feet, whichever is less, from each building in the group. Such plan shall be consistent with the goals and recommendations of the bicycle commuting task force. If the commissioner of transportation, in consultation with other relevant city agencies, determines that such pilot project plan is in the best interest of the city and the community and that the proposed sheltered bicycle storage can accommodate the bicycles of riders seeking access to such buildings, such commissioner may authorize the implementation of such pilot project. Upon such authorization, the commissioner of transportation shall recommend to the commissioner of buildings to suspend the applicability of section one of this local law to such buildings during the time that such pilot project is operational.

NYC L.L. 2009/053 In relation to licensing of pedicabs

L.L. 2009/053 Enactment date: 8/13/2009 Int. No. 1031-A By the Speaker (Council Member Quinn) and Council Members Garodnick, Jackson, Gennaro, Koppell, Lappin, Recchia Jr., Stewart, Vallone Jr., White Jr., Gerson, Nelson and Mitchell A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to licensing of pedicabs.

NYC L.L. 2009/055 In relation to the provision of language assistance services in pharmacies

L.L. 2009/055 Enactment date: 9/3/2009 Int. No. 859-A By The Public Advocate (Ms. Gotbaum) and Council Members Brewer, James, Liu, Palma, Sanders Jr., Gerson, White Jr., Gioia, Arroyo, Mendez, Gonzalez, Eugene, Rivera, Ferreras, Jackson, Baez, Mark-Viverito, Weprin, Reyna, Sears, Barron, Koppell, de Blasio, Dickens, Stewart, Vann and Nelson A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the provision of language assistance services in pharmacies. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. New York is a multilingual city where more than 150 languages are spoken, almost half of the residents speak a language other than English at home and nearly a quarter do not speak English very well. Prescription medications typically include technical instructions, restrictions and warnings that are critical for the consumer to understand in order to use the product safely. A customer's inability to understand medication labels and instructions easily can cause errors in usage and thereby significantly endanger the health of limited English proficient residents. The difficulties limited English proficient New Yorkers may experience in communicating with their pharmacists could be greatly alleviated by the provision of interpretation services and translated medication labels. New Yorkers who have limited English proficiency are not receiving the interpretations and translations they need. A 2007 study of pharmacies in New York City by the New York Academy of Medicine found that, although 88 percent of surveyed New York City pharmacists reported serving customers with limited English proficiency daily and 80 percent had the ability to translate medication labels, only 34 percent reported actually translating such labels daily. More than a quarter of the surveyed pharmacists never translate labels. Thus, the Council finds that the lack of interpretation and translation services in pharmacies inhibits the fair and effective sale of prescription medications, posing a significant risk to the health and safety of New Yorkers and that it would be in the public interest to ensure that all residents, regardless of the language they speak, understand their medication labels and instructions. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. Effect of invalidity; severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or other portion of this local law is, for any reason, declared unconstitutional or invalid, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed severable, and such unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this local law, which remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect. § 4. This local law shall take effect two hundred and seventy days after its enactment into law, provided that the department may promulgate any rules necessary for implementing and carrying out the provisions of this local law prior to its effective date.

NYC L.L. 2009/056 In relation to regionally significant projects and empire zones

L.L. 2009/056 Enactment date: 9/3/2009 Int. No. 890-A By Council Members White Jr., Comrie, James and Palma A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to regionally significant projects and empire zones. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Statement of legislative findings and intent. Under Section 957(d)(i) of the General Municipal Law, certain business enterprises located outside the boundaries of an Empire Zone may still be eligible for Empire Zone benefits as a "regionally significant project" because the economic activity of such enterprise is of a nature that is encouraged by the State, and the Administrative Board of such Empire Zone authorizes the designation of such business as a regionally significant project. The New York State Department of Economic Development and the South Jamaica Empire Zone Administrative Board have determined that Flying Food Group LLC, a manufacturer and food processing and packaging company serving 85 airlines and nationally known retail food chains is projected to create more than 100 new jobs and has been provisionally approved for Empire Zones benefits as a regionally significant project under Section 957(d)(i) of the General Municipal Law. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect immediately.

This local law shall take effect immediately; provided, however, that this local law shall apply to taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2010 and before January 1, 2013.

NYC L.L. 2009/068 In relation to requiring the New York city Department of Education to report on the implementation of Billy's Law

L.L. 2009/068 Enactment date: 10/28/2009 Int. No. 396-A By Council Members Gentile, Jackson, de Blasio, The Public Advocate (Ms. Gotbaum), Koppell, Recchia Jr., Weprin, Gonzalez, Gennaro, Dickens, Fidler, Lappin, Palma, Vacca, Foster, Sears, Mark-Viverito, Gerson, Brewer, Reyna, Garodnick, Comrie, James, Mendez, Nelson, Seabrook, Vann, White Jr., Avella, Barron, Liu, Katz and Mitchell A Local Law to amend the New York city charter in relation to requiring the New York city Department of Education to report on the implementation of Billy's Law. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. In August of 2005, the New York State Legislature passed "Billy's Law" (§ 483-d of the New York State social services law) to improve State and local monitoring of out-of-state residential facilities that house New York State children who are placed in such facilities for specialized services, including specialized educational services. One such facility was the subject of an investigation by the New York State Department of Education. The investigators' report concluded, among other things, that the facility's use of certain therapies raised health and safety concerns, and that students in the facility did not receive adequate academic and special education instruction. Such findings reinforce the need to monitor allegations of abuse or neglect arising from an out-of-state residential facility placement. It is therefore the Council's intention to improve such monitoring in accord with the goals of Billy's law by requiring biannual reports to the Council on the Department's monitoring of such facilities. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect immediately.

NYC L.L. 2009/074 In relation to distressed property consultants

L.L. 2009/074 Enactment date: 11/17/2009 Int. No. 1070-A By Council Members Sanders Jr., Comrie, Gerson, Nelson, White, Arroyo, Lappin, Jackson, Barron, Koppell, Liu, Gennaro, Mitchell and Weprin A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to distressed property consultants. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative Findings. The country is currently in the midst of a foreclosure crisis, with thousands of homes being foreclosed upon monthly. Foreclosures in New York City increased steadily throughout 2008, with the highest rates of foreclosure in The Bronx, Queens and Staten Island. Increasing rates of foreclosures and defaults on home loans created an industry of distressed property consultants, or individuals who market themselves as uniquely able to help homeowners negotiate with their lenders. The Council finds that unfortunately, homeowners already in precarious situations find themselves in even worse positions as unscrupulous consultants take their money and do nothing on their behalf. In an effort to combat the perceived wide-spread fraud in this industry, New York State enacted a law in August 2008 that prohibited distressed property consultants from collecting any funds prior to rendering services or taking power of attorney from a homeowner and mandated the parties enter into a fully executed, written contract prior to rendering services. Additionally, consultants are required to notify potential clients that they should consider consulting an independent attorney or government-approved housing counselor prior to signing any documents pertaining to their home and must provide the homeowner with information about how to locate a government-approved housing counselor. The Council finds that while the state law seeks to prevent fraud by unscrupulous distressed property consultants, distressed property consultants continue to solicit business in communities with high foreclosure rates throughout the City. Many local non-profits offer foreclosure prevention or loan modification services for free, but as long as for-profit distressed property consultants exist, it behooves City residents to be aware of the legal constraints placed on consultants under state law. Therefore, the Council finds it necessary to mandate disclosure requirements in advertisements placed by distressed property consultants. These disclosures will ensure New York City residents are aware of their rights when paying for distressed property consulting services. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect 90 days after its enactment into law; provided, however, that the commissioner of consumer affairs shall take any actions necessary prior to such effective date for the implementation of this local law including, but not limited to, the adoption of any necessary rules.

NYC L.L. 2009/076 In relation to backflow prevention device reporting and certification

L.L. 2009/076 Enactment date: 12/7/2009 Int. No. 935-A By Council Members Gennaro, Comrie, Fidler, James, Koppell, Nelson, Weprin, Gerson, White Jr., Jackson, Recchia Jr., Vallone Jr., Liu, Sears, Crowley and Eugene. A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to backflow prevention device reporting and certification. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The Council finds that plumbing cross-connections, points in the plumbing system where it is possible for wastewater, industrial fluids, gas or substances other than the intended potable water, to come into contact with the potable drinking water supply, are a significant public health risk. Backflow of non-potable water or other substances from cross connections may take place when water flows in the opposite direction than that intended because a potable system is connected to a nonpotable supply under higher pressure than the distribution system as a result of a pump, boiler or elevation difference. Backsiphonage of nonpotable water from cross connections may take place when negative pressure in a portion of the distribution system is below ambient pressure in the distribution system as a result of water main breaks, firefighting efforts or any high demand situation. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), plumbing is often installed by persons who are "unaware of the inherent dangers of cross connections". Backflow and backsiphonage into the public water distribution system can be prevented by not creating cross-connections, by eliminating existing cross connections, and by educating the public to prevent cross-connections. However, because new cross-connections are routinely created, it is also useful to create impediments to backflow or backsiphonage by installation of backflow prevention devices and assemblies. The Council further finds that an annual filing of proof that an approved backflow prevention device was installed by any owner or operator of a facility that uses hazardous materials or that is legally required to install such a device would help to reduce the potential adverse impacts from cross-connections. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect ninety days after enactment.

NYC L.L. 2009/083 In relation to the penalties associated with the sale of toy guns

L.L. 2009/083 Enactment date: 12/28/2009 Int. No. 240-A By Council Members Vann, Weprin, Arroyo, Brewer, Comrie, Foster, Gennaro, James, Koppell, Mark-Viverito, Nelson, Stewart, Liu, Vallone, Jr., Rivera, Jackson, White, Jr., Recchia, Garodnick, Mealy, Rodriguez and Lappin A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the penalties associated with the sale of toy guns. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Findings and Intent. Toy manufacturers and retailers in New York City and around the nation produce and sell imitation firearms bearing a striking resemblance to real weapons, whether in size, shape, or overall appearance. Therefore, New York City presently prohibits the sale of toy firearms unless the physical appearance of the toy gun conforms with the requirements set out in subdivision g of section 10-131 of the administrative code. New York State's highest court has held that that this provision is not preempted by federal law, which requires only minimal markings on toy guns, such as an orange blaze around the barrel. Although the federal statute preempts local laws that require "inconsistent" markings, it allows cities to require clearer markings in addition to the federal ones. Since this local legislation was enacted, the City's Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) has uncovered numerous violations. DCA has removed more than 7,000 toy guns from the shelves of over 220 stores and levied $3.3 million in fines. However, the current penalty scheme insufficiently deters the sale of toy guns by City businesses. Indeed, some stores are repeat offenders, selling fake guns even after having paid penalties for previous violations. By increasing the base penalty for first violations and by imposing greater penalties for repeat offenses, the revised code provision would more forcefully deter businesses from stocking toy guns and would also target businesses that continue to flout the law even after paying penalties for previous violations. If a business commits three or more violations in a two-year period, then the revised code provision would allow it to be closed briefly to allow the business time to take corrective actions including, but not limited to, removing and disposing of all fake guns that do not comply with the law; reviewing inventory; reviewing shipment orders; removing promotional materials; drafting policies and procedures; and training staff to ensure that remaining fake guns comply with the law and to stop the ordering of fake guns that do not comply with the law. Not only are realistic-looking fake guns used to commit crimes, but there have been a variety of tragic incidents involving young people carrying imitation guns who were wounded or killed by police officers who mistook toy weapons for real ones. In 2006, for example, police killed a 15-year-old at a middle school in Longwood, Florida after he brandished a look-alike gun whose safety markings had been painted black. On February 24, 2007, a 27-year-old man pointed a fake AK-47 assault rifle at New York City police officers, leading them to fire back but not to injure him. Accordingly, the Council finds that legislation increasing penalties for stores that fail to abide by the terms of subdivision g of section 10-131 of the administrative code is warranted. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect 30 days after it shall have become a law, provided that, prior to such effective date, the commissioner of consumer affairs and the head of any other agency designated by the mayor in accordance with paragraph 3 of subdivision g of section 10-131 of the New York City administrative code may promulgate such rules and take such other actions as are necessary to its timely implementation.

NYC L.L. 2009/085 In relation to establishing a New York city energy code

L.L. 2009/085 Enactment date: 12/28/2009 Int. No. 564-A By Council Members Garodnick, the Speaker (Council Member Quinn), Brewer, Fidler, Gonzalez, James, Koppell, Sanders Jr., Seabrook, Weprin, White Jr., Gerson, Lappin, Yassky, Recchia Jr., Sears, Liu, Mendez, de Blasio, Mitchell, Mark-Viverito, Katz, Vallone Jr., Nelson, Vann, Avella, Gioia, Vacca, Jackson, Ferreras, Comrie, Barron, Arroyo, Crowley, Gennaro, Mealy and Reyna A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to establishing a New York city energy code. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Statement of findings and purpose. The Energy Conservation Construction Code of New York State (State Energy Code), authorized by article eleven of the State Energy Law, sets standards for the energy performance of buildings throughout New York. For existing buildings, the State Energy Code only applies when an alteration leads to the replacement of at least fifty percent of a building's system or subsystem, meaning there are no energy efficiency requirements for many renovation projects of a lesser magnitude or lower threshold. As a result of this loophole, New York City is failing to reap the benefits of energy improvements as the building fabric is updated in those situations. The State Energy Law expressly permits a municipality to promulgate a local energy conservation construction code that is more stringent than the State Energy Code. Accordingly, the Council finds that it is reasonable and necessary to promulgate a New York City Energy Code in order to ensure the enforcement of the State Energy Code within New York City and to impose energy standards for renovation projects at a lower threshold than that mandated by the State Energy Code. If following the promulgation of the New York City Energy Code the State revises the State Energy Code, the more stringent provisions of the two codes shall apply until the New York City Energy Code is amended and made more stringent. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 30. If any section, subdivision, paragraph, item, sentence, clause, phrase or other portion of this local law is for any reason declared unconstitutional or invalid, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed severable, and such unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this law, which remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect. § 31. This local law shall take effect on July 1, 2010 and shall apply to work for which applications for construction document approval are submitted to the department of buildings on and after such date; provided, that the commissioner of buildings shall take all actions necessary to implement this local law, including the promulgation of rules, on or before such effective date.

NYC L.L. 2009/087 In relation to requiring energy audits and retro-commissioning of base building systems of certain buildings and retro-fitting of certain city-owned buildings

L.L. 2009/087 Enactment date: 12/28/2009 Int. No. 967-A By Council Member Gennaro, the Speaker (Council Member Quinn), Brewer, Comrie, Dickens, Garodnick, Gioia, James, Koppell, Lappin, Mitchell, Palma, Recchia Jr., Reyna, Rivera, Stewart, Liu, Yassky, Sears, White Jr., Mendez, de Blasio, Mark-Viverito, Vann, Avella, Vacca, Gerson, Jackson, Gonzalez, Ferreras, Vallone Jr., Barron, Arroyo, Crowley and Mealy A Local Law to amend the New York city charter and the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring energy audits and retro-commissioning of base building systems of certain buildings and retro-fitting of certain city-owned buildings. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. Report on capital improvements of base building systems. The department of citywide administrative services shall submit annual reports to the mayor and the speaker of the city council on capital improvements of base building systems completed pursuant to section 224.2 of the charter, as added by section 2 of this local law, for each city fiscal year commencing with the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2013. The first such report for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 2013 shall be submitted by December 31, 2014. Subsequent reports shall be due six months after the close of the fiscal year covered by the report. Each report shall include at a minimum: a. The latest energy efficiency reports (including energy audit and retro-commissioning) submitted pursuant to article three hundred eight of chapter three of title twenty-eight of the administrative code for each building covered by the applicable report of the department of citywide administrative services. b. An analysis of the most commonly recommended capital improvements of base building systems recommended in the energy audits of such buildings. c. An analysis of the accuracy of such energy audits in predicting costs of the recommended capital improvements. d. An analysis after one year of operation of the accuracy with which such audits predicted the actual saving achieved by the capital improvements. e. Recommendations as to appropriate legislative or administrative actions or a statement as to why no legislative or administrative actions are needed. § 4. Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or other portion of this local law is for any reason declared unconstitutional or invalid, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed severable, and such unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this local law, which remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect. § 5. This local law shall take effect immediately.

NYC L.L. 2009/088 In relation to upgrading lighting systems and the installation of sub-meters in certain buildings

L.L. 2009/088 Enactment date: 12/28/2009 Int. No. 973-A By Council Members Recchia, Jr., the Speaker (Council Member Quinn), Comrie, Dickens, Fidler, Garodnick, Gioia, James, Lappin, Mitchell, Nelson, Reyna, Rivera, Stewart, Liu, Yassky, Sears, White Jr., Mendez, de Blasio, Mark-Viverito, Katz, Vallone Jr., Gerson, Koppell, Vann, Avella, Vacca, Jackson, Brewer, Gonzalez, Ferreras, Barron, Arroyo, Crowley, Gennaro and Mealy A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to upgrading lighting systems and the installation of sub-meters in certain buildings. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Declaration of legislative findings and intent. The Council finds that non-residential lighting is responsible for almost 18% of the energy used in New York City's buildings and roughly 18% of carbon emissions from buildings, that tenant electrical use can account for the majority of the electricity consumed in many large non-residential buildings, and that patterns of electrical consumption in tenant spaces are often not known by tenants. Rapid improvements in lighting technology in the past decades have made it feasible to dramatically reduce energy consumption by installing more efficient lighting systems, and any investments made to install such systems will typically be realized through operational savings. Furthermore, most large buildings have one master meter for electricity that measures building-wide usage, as opposed to separate meters that provide such information on a per tenant basis. The Council finds that the consumption of energy for lighting and other electrical equipment can be reduced if code-compliant lighting is installed in non-residential spaces and electrical measuring equipment is installed and data on electrical energy use is made available to commercial tenants. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or other portion of this local law is for any reason declared unconstitutional or invalid, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed severable, and such unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this local law, which remaining portions shall continue in full force and effect. § 4. This local law shall take effect immediately.

No. 1014-A By Council Member White, Jr., Weprin and Mealy A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to regionally significant projects and empire zones. Be it enacted by the Council as follows: Section 1. Statement of legislative findings and intent. Under Section 957(d)(i) of the General Municipal Law, certain business enterprises located outside the boundaries of an Empire Zone may still be eligible for Empire Zone benefits as a "regionally significant project" because the economic activity of such enterprise is of a nature that is encouraged by the State, and the Administrative Board of such Empire Zone recommends the designation of such business as a regionally significant project. The New York State Department of Economic Development has determined that Epic Pharma LLC, a minority-owned pharmaceutical manufacturer is projected to create 50 new jobs and has been provisionally approved for Empire Zones benefits as a regionally significant project under Section 957(d)(i) of the General Municipal Law. * * * [Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A] * * * § 3. This local law shall take effect immediately and the commissioner of small business services shall immediately take such actions as are necessary for the administration and implementation of this local law.
