Building  Smoking Policies New York City’s Local Law 147:

The new New York City’s Local Law 147 requires all residential buildings with three or more units, including rental buildings,  cooperatives and condominiums, to adopt a written smoking policy - no later than August 28, 2018.

Disclosure Requirements Regarding Building  Smoking Policies Pursuant to Local Law 147:

The New York State Department of Law (“DOL”) publishes this memorandum as a guidance document

Pursuant to State Administrative Procedure Act § 102(14).

1. INTRODUCTION

On August 28, 2017, New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio signed Local Law 147,1  which goes into effect on August 28, 2018. Local Law 147 amends the Administrative Code of the City of New York (“NYC Administrative Code”) to require that all class A multiple dwellings—i.e., buildings with three or more residential dwelling units—adopt a written smoking policy for the building that is disclosed to all  residents and incorporated into all leases, purchase agreements, and building governing documents. Local Law 147 does not dictate the contents of a building’s smoking policy.

 As such, Local Law 147 affects most condominiums and cooperative apartment corporations (“cooperatives”) located in New York City. This guidance document clarifies how Local Law 147 affects DOL disclosure requirements for sponsors of condominiums and cooperatives located in New York City with three or more residential dwelling units or apartments.2  Solely for the purposes of this guidance document, the terms  condominium” and “cooperative” shall refer only to condominiums and cooperatives located in New York City with three or more residential dwelling units or apartments.

2. LOCAL LAW 147

Pursuant to Local Law 147, the owner(s) of each building in New York City with three or more residential dwelling units must establish a written smoking policy for the building no later than August 28, 2018. In the context of condominiums or cooperatives, Local Law 147 defines “owner” as the board of managers or board of directors, respectively. NYC Administrative Code § 17-506.1. The building’s smoking policy must address all indoor locations of the premises, including common areas and dwelling units, as well as all outdoor areas of the premises, including common courtyards, rooftops, balconies and patios and any outdoor areas connected to the dwelling units. The building’s smoking policy must apply to all its tenants,3  shareholders, and/or unit owners and their invitees as well as other persons on the premises. NYC Administrative Code § 17-506.1(a)(2). A copy of the building’s smoking policy must be posted in a prominent location and/or provided to all tenants, shareholders, and/or unit owners. The building’s smoking policy also must be incorporated into any agreement to rent or purchase a dwelling unit, including a dwelling unit in a condominium or shares in a cooperative. Finally, the building’s smoking policy must be incorporated into the bylaws or rules of the condominium or cooperative. NYC Administrative Code §§ 17-506.1(b)(2)-(5). Failure by owners to adopt and disclose the building’s smoking policy could result in civil penalties assessed by one of several New York City agencies. In addition, failure of any tenant-shareholder, condominium unit owner, or tenant who rents or leases a dwelling unit to another person to disclose the building’s smoking policy could result in civil penalties. NYC Administrative Code § 17-508(e).

3. CURRENT RESIDENTIAL SMOKING LAW IN NEW YORK CITY

The current law governing smoking in class A multiple dwellings in New York City is the Smoke-Free Air Act (“SFAA”). As of the date of this guidance document, SFAA prohibits smoking or using electronic cigarettes in common indoor areas of buildings with three or more residential dwelling units. SFAA does not prohibit smoking in private units or apartments or other private residences (except in areas where child day care centers or health care facilities operate and are open or employees are working). Owners of residential buildings are responsible for all violations reported concerning the SFAA and may incur penalties if they fail to comply with SFAA. NYC Administrative Code § 17-505.

Local Law 147 does not change the requirements of SFAA. Thus, a building cannot adopt a smoking policy permitting smoking in indoor common areas, lest the owners be in violation of SFAA.

4. DOL DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS REGARDING THE SMOKING POLICY An offering plan must afford potential purchasers an “adequate basis upon which to found their judgment and shall not omit any  material fact.” New York General Business Law (“GBL”) § 352- e(1)(b). To provide prospective purchasers and contract vendees with “complete, current, and accurate” information regarding their purchase and be in compliance with Local Law 147, sponsors of condominiums and/or cooperatives must disclose the building’s smoking policy in the offering plan or an amendment thereto, as applicable. 13 NYCRR Parts 18.1(b)(1); 20.1(b)(1); 21.1(b)(1); and 23.1(b)(1). The DOL will deem most changes to a condominium or cooperative’s existing written smoking policy, or the adoption of a new smoking policy where there was no previously disclosed written smoking policy, to be a change in fact or circumstances that is sufficiently material to necessitate an amendment to an offering plan in which the updated or new smoking policy is disclosed. See 13 NYCRR Parts 18.5(a)(1), (2); 20.5(a)(1), (2); 21.5(a)(3), (4); and 23.5(a)(1), (2). The smoking policy disclosure in the offering plan and/or amendment must address all indoor locations of the premises, including common areas and dwelling units, as well as all outdoor areas of the premises, including common courtyards, rooftops, balconies and patios and any outdoor areas connected to the dwelling units.4 The disclosure must be included in the Special Risks and Rights and Obligations of Unit Owners sections of the offering plan. Additionally, the building’s smoking policy must be incorporated into the interim lease (if applicable), purchase agreement, and bylaws or rules that are included in Part II of the offering plan pursuant to DOL regulations.

5. PROCEDURE FOR DISCLOSURE OF THE SMOKING POLICY IN OFERING PLANS AND AMENDMENTS Effective August 29, 2018, the DOL will require sponsors of the following categories of condominium and cooperative offering plans to adhere to the specific procedures for disclosing the building’s smoking policy described herein……….

6. CHANGES TO THE SMOKING POLICY As discussed in section 4 of this guidance document, most changes to a condominium or cooperative’s existing written smoking policy, or the adoption of a new smoking policy where there was no previously disclosed written smoking policy, are changes in fact or circumstances that are sufficiently material to necessitate an amendment to an offering plan in which the updated or new smoking policy is disclosed. See 13 NYCRR Parts 18.5(a)(1), (2); 20.5(a)(1), (2); 21.5(a)(3), (4); and 23.5(a)(1), (2). Furthermore, a material and adverse change to a condominium or cooperative’s existing smoking policy, or the adoption of a new smoking policy where there was no previously disclosed written smoking policy, may trigger a right of rescission for contract vendees. See 13 NYCRR Parts 18.5(a)(5); 20.5(a)(5); 21.5(a)(5); and 23.5(a)(5). However, the DOL will not require sponsors to offer contract vendees a right of rescission due to a change in the smoking policy in the following scenarios:  The condominium or cooperative did not have a previously disclosed written smoking policy, but

· the newly adopted smoking policy substantially mirrors SFAA (i.e., smoking is prohibited in all common areas, but not prohibited in most individual residences);  The condominium or cooperative’s current smoking policy was disclosed to the contract vendee

· prior to executing the purchase agreement;  The condominium or cooperative had a previously disclosed written smoking policy and such

· smoking policy has changed, but the change is not material and adverse.

 All other material and adverse changes to a condominium or cooperative’s smoking policy while a contract vendee’s contract is still executory will require the sponsor to provide all such contract vendees with a right of rescission and a reasonable period of time that is not less than fifteen (15) days after the date of presentation to exercise the right of rescission. See 13 NYCRR Parts 18.5(a)(5); 20.5(a)(5); 21.5(a)(5); and 23.5(a)(5).

Although Local Law 147 does not require purchase agreements signed prior to August 29, 2018 to disclose the building’s smoking policy, the building’s smoking policy created pursuant to Local Law 147 will be binding on purchasers who signed purchase agreements prior to August 29, 2018. Therefore, the enactment of a material and adverse change to a building’s smoking policy, or the adoption of a new smoking policy pursuant to Local Law 147 where there was no previously disclosed written smoking policy, may trigger a right of rescission for any contract vendee who executed a purchase agreement prior to August 29, 2018 if such purchase agreement remains executory and the contract vendee did not receive written notice of the building’s smoking policy prior to executing the purchase agreement.

7. FAILURE TO DISCLOSE OR ADEQUATELY DISCLOSE THE SMOKING POLICY OR CHANGES TO THE SMOKING POLICY The DOL reserves the right to reject offering plans and amendments thereto that fail to comply with this guidance document and all other applicable laws and regulations. Additionally, the Attorney General has the authority under Article 23-A of the GBL to investigate and strictly enforce violations of the statutes and regulations governing disclosure requirements. Nothing contained in this guidance document shall be construed to be a waiver of or a limitation on the Attorney General’s authority to take enforcement action pursuant to Article 23-A of the GBL and other applicable provisions of law, except as expressly stated herein.
