Requires owners of multiple dwellings with at least nine units to provide certain maintenance services; permits municipalities to require owners of multiple dwellings with six to eight units to provide these services.
This bill requires owners of apartment buildings with nine or more units to provide specific maintenance services, including daily cleaning of common areas, snow/ice removal from sidewalks, and operating heating equipment. Municipalities can also require similar maintenance for buildings with six to eight units. Owners must designate a person or company to handle these services - either a resident owner, on-site staff, or an off-site provider within 200 feet - and post their contact information publicly. The law applies to all qualifying buildings and ensures owners or their designated providers are responsible for compliance and penalties.
