2006 New York Code - Registration Statement; Contents.

 
    §  27-2098  Registration  statement;  contents.  a.  The  registration
  statement shall include the following information:
    (1) An identification of the premises by block and lot number, and  by
  the  street numbers and names of all streets contiguous to the dwelling,
  or by such other description as will enable the department to locate the
  dwelling. If the dwelling is a garden-type maisonette  dwelling  project
  required  to  register  pursuant to paragraph four of subdivision (b) of
  section  27-2099  of  this  article,  the  owner  who  files  the  first
  registration  statement  with the department for such project shall list
  on the registration statement the street numbers for  each  dwelling  in
  the  project  and  shall  designate  an  address  by  which  the project
  dwellings are to be identified by the department.
    (2) An identification of the owner by  name,  residence  and  business
  address. If the owner is a corporation, the identification shall include
  the  name  and  address  of  such  corporation  together with the names,
  residences and business addresses of the officers. In the  case  of  any
  class  A  multiple  dwelling  used for single room occupancy pursuant to
  section two hundred forty-eight of the multiple  dwelling  law,  if  the
  owner  is a corporation, the identification shall also include the names
  and addresses of any person whose share of ownership of the  corporation
  exceeds  twenty-five  percent. For the purposes of this subdivision, any
  person owning a share of a parent corporation shall be deemed to  be  an
  owner of a share of a subsidiary corporation equal to the product of the
  percentage  of his or her ownership of the parent corporation multiplied
  by  the  percentage  of  the  parent  corporation's  ownership  of   the
  subsidiary  corporation. If the owner is under the age of eighteen years
  or  has  been  judicially  declared  incompetent,  his  or   her   legal
  representative shall file the registration statement.
    (3)  If the dwelling is a multiple dwelling, the name and address of a
  managing agent  designated  by  the  owner  to  be  in  control  of  and
  responsible  for  the  maintenance and operation of such dwelling and to
  authorize, on behalf of the  owner,  the  correction  of  any  emergency
  conditions or the making of any emergency repairs for which the owner is
  responsible  under  the  provisions of the multiple dwelling law or this
  code. To qualify for such designation,  an  agent  shall  be  a  natural
  person over the age of twenty-one years and shall reside within the city
  or  customarily and regularly attend a business office maintained within
  the city. An owner or corporate officer who  meets  such  qualifications
  may be designated to serve and registered as the managing agent.
    (4)  If the dwelling is a multiple dwelling, the number of a telephone
  within the greater metropolitan area, as identified by  the  department,
  where  an  owner  or  officer,  if  the  owner  is a corporation, or the
  managing agent may reasonably be expected to be reached  at  all  times.
  The  telephone  number contained in the registration statement shall not
  constitute a  public  record  and  shall  be  accessible  only  to  duly
  authorized  employees or officers of the department and used exclusively
  by such personnel  in  connection  with  an  emergency  arising  on  the
  premises  for which the owner is responsible under the provisions of the
  multiple dwelling law  or  this  code.  The  department  may  promulgate
  regulations to implement the provisions of this paragraph.
    (5)  If  the  dwelling  is a one- or two-family dwelling and the owner
  does not reside within the city, the  name  and  address  of  a  natural
  person  who  is  over  the age of twenty-one years and a resident of the
  city, designated by the owner to receive service of notices,  orders  or
  summonses issued by the department.
    b.  The registration statement shall be signed by the owner or, if the
  owner is a corporation, by any officer. In the appropriate case,  either
  the  managing  agent  or  the  designee  described  in paragraph five of


  subdivision a of this section  shall  sign  the  statement  to  indicate
  consent  to  the designation except that such consent is not required if
  an owner or officer of a  corporation  is  registered  as  the  managing
  agent.
    c. The registration statement shall be filed on forms to be prescribed
  by  the  department and shall be accompanied by a filing fee of thirteen
  dollars. In  the  case  of  an  owner  previously  registered  with  the
  department,  no  new  filing  fee  shall be required for the filing of a
  supplemental registration.
    d. The department may require that a  multiple  dwelling  registration
  statement contain such other information, in addition to the information
  specifically  required  by this article, which it deems to be related to
  the ownership or management of such dwelling.
