Extends certain provisions relating to the COVID-19 emergency rental assistance program
This bill extends the funding deadline for New York's COVID-19 emergency rental assistance program, keeping it operational through September 30, 2025. It directly affects renters and landlords who rely on this state-funded program to cover housing costs during the pandemic emergency. The key provision amends an existing law to delay the expiration of specific program provisions, ensuring continued eligibility for assistance until the new deadline. The extension applies to the state's emergency rental assistance program established under prior legislation.
