New York (State). Legislature. Assembly. Standing Committee on Housing
Variant namesBiographical notes:
The Assembly Standing Committee on Housing was established in 1966 to review and research all legislation within its jurisdiction and to provide legislative oversight where necessary.
This jurisdiction covers: the Multiple Dwelling Law; the Multiple Residence Law; the Private Housing Finance Law; and the Public Housing Law. In addition, the Committee has jurisdiction over legislation amending those sections of the Unconsolidated Laws dealing with housing concerns. The Committee maintains several subcommittees to develop and review legislation and to conduct public hearings where necessary. In 1984, for example, there were three subcommittees: Neighborhood Preservation, Code Enforcement, and Mitchell-Lama (relating to development of low and middle income housing).
Because of the concentration of the state's population in cities, the majority of bills considered by the Committee each year deal with problems of urban housing. Many of these bills pertain to the protection of tenant rights in the form of rent control, the development of low and middle income housing, and the process of cooperative and condominium conversion.
