A 402 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Establishes ethics requirements for certain resident councils

This bill (A 402) requires housing authorities in cities with over one million residents to establish ethics rules for resident councils. It mandates that all council officers complete ethics training and submit conflict-of-interest forms to the housing authority. The authority must make these forms publicly available online (with personal details removed) and create formal ethics plans for councils. The law applies directly to tenant and resident associations in large cities and takes effect immediately.
