A 2158 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Requires all agencies of the city of New York which issue summons to document violations with photographic evidence when feasible

This bill requires New York City agencies that issue summonses (like traffic or code enforcement tickets) to document violations with photos when practical. Agencies must first identify which violations can be proven via photos, then take photos at the time of issuing a summons for those violations using devices like phones or cameras. If photos aren't feasible, officers must explain why in the summons, and all photos must be made available online for people to view before any hearing. The law applies immediately to all relevant city agencies.
