"Good Cause" Eviction legislation quietly slinking it's way through the NYS super majority (D). check out S3082. I suppose they are going to squeeze this in instead of extending the unconstitutional moratorium. It currently is "in committee"
Some low lights:
"...IT SHALL BE A REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION THAT THE RENT FOR A
DWELLING NOT PROTECTED BY RENT REGULATION IS UNREASONABLE IF SAID RENT
HAS BEEN INCREASED IN ANY CALENDAR YEAR BY A PERCENTAGE EXCEEDING EITHER
THREE PERCENT OR ONE AND ONE-HALF TIMES THE ANNUAL PERCENTAGE CHANGE IN
THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX FOR THE REGION IN WHICH THE HOUSING ACCOMMO-
DATION IS LOCATED, AS ESTABLISHED THE AUGUST PRECEDING THE CALENDAR YEAR
IN QUESTION, WHICHEVER IS GREATER;"
Aka de facto rent control state wide
"SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: This bill would set a precedent of placing the
lives, health, safety, and well-being of tenants first, and before the
profits of landlords. This legislation would limit cases of homelessness
as a result of eviction and help to ensure that the human right to hous-
ing is given meaning in New York State."
"FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
No negative fiscal implications to the state or to localities. This bill
would result in fiscal savings by significantly reducing homelessness,
reducing the detrimental health impact of homelessness or housing
precarity, and by reducing the case-load of the state's housing courts
and all related administrative costs."
