69-Z - Applicability.

 
    §  69-z. Applicability. 1. The provisions of this article shall not be
  construed to limit in any way the authority of a city with a  population
  of one million or more to enact, implement and continue to enforce local
  laws  and  regulations  governing home improvement contractors and their
  agents or employees that were in effect prior to the effective  date  of
  this  article, or to enact, implement and enforce any amendments thereto
  after the effective date of this article.
    2. The provisions of this article  shall  govern  notwithstanding  any
  other  law  to  the  contrary;  provided,  however, that local law shall
  govern with respect to inspection of fire alarms by a fire  marshall  or
  any other person designated under such local law; and provided, further,
  that  this  article shall not be held to invalidate any provision of the
  laws of this state or any subdivision thereof unless there is  a  direct
  conflict between the provision of this article and the provision of such
  law  or  unless  such  law is duplicative of this article, in which case
  this article shall prevail, except as provided otherwise in  subdivision
  one  of  this  section.  Except  as  provided in subdivision one of this
  section, no  local  law  shall  require  any  fee  or  license  for  the
  installation,  servicing  or  maintaining  of  security  or  fire  alarm
  systems, except that which is provided pursuant to this article.
