Designates certain zip codes as cease and desist zones
S 5271 designates 27 specific zip codes in the Bronx (10451-10475) and Mount Vernon (10550-10553) as "cease and desist zones" under New York's real property law. The bill requires the Secretary of State to establish these zones by rule within 90 days, effective for five years with possible renewal. This procedural bill directly affects businesses operating in these designated zip codes, as it formally creates a legal framework for enforcement actions related to property violations in those areas. The measure does not change existing laws but codifies the geographic scope of these enforcement zones.
