A 6953 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to residency exemption for plumbing inspectors in the city of Rochester

This bill requires plumbing inspectors in Rochester to be citizens and actual residents of Monroe County (where Rochester is located), rather than residents of the city itself. It directly affects individuals appointed as plumbing inspectors in Rochester by changing their residency requirement from city to county. The key provision amends existing law to specify that Rochester inspectors must live in the county, aligning with similar rules for other cities like Watertown and Jamestown. This is a specific policy adjustment to the qualifications for a local government role.
