Specifies inapplicability of "Fair Chance in Housing Act" to county and municipal landlords.

Bill A4957 clarifies that the "Fair Chance in Housing Act" does not apply to county and municipal governments that directly rent residential units to tenants. It amends the Act's definition of "housing provider" to explicitly exclude county and municipal landlords from its requirements. This change resolves ongoing disputes about whether the law's rules - prohibiting housing providers from considering criminal records during tenant screening - apply to government-owned rental properties.
