As you may recall, in March 2021, the State adopted a law that requires housing providers to give notice to all current and prospective tenants about their rights to request reasonable modification or accommodation. At the time the law was adopted, the State had not finalized the notice requirements. However, on May 18, 2022, the NY Division of Human Rights noticed the adoption of the regulations and published the documents that need to be shared with your tenants. The rule can be found here beginning on page 10. This notice must be distributed on or before June 17, 2022.
In co-ops and condos, the notice would only be required for units that are being rented. However many Co-op and Condo attorneys and REBNY counsel encourage co-ops to share the notice with any proprietary leaseholders. Attached is a sample notification prepared by the Real Estate Board of New York that can be shared with your residents or prospective residents in compliance with the law.
