City Council Legislation: Bills and Local Laws

This dataset contains information on New York City bills from 1998 through 2024.

The New York City Council is the City’s legislative body, responsible for proposing, debating, and voting on legislation that affects all aspects of city governance. The legislative process for Introductions in NYC follows these steps:

Bill Introduced – A bill is introduced by a Council Member and assigned a number.

Committee Hearings – The bill is referred to a committee for review, where public hearings may be held for discussion, public comment, and stakeholder engagement.

Committee Vote – The committee votes on whether to advance the bill to the full Council.

Full Council Vote – If approved by the committee, the bill is voted on by the entire Council. A majority vote is required for passage.

Mayoral Action – Once passed by the Council, the bill is sent to the Mayor, who may sign it into law, veto it, or allow it to become law without a signature. If vetoed, the Council can override the veto with a two-thirds majority vote.

Enactment – Once signed or passed via override, the bill is assigned a local law number and becomes part of the city’s legal code. Bills may be enacted immediately, or upon a date defined in the bill.

This dataset provides information on all introductions, regardless of whether they were enacted.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to creating a program for evaluation of certain multiple dwellings and transactions to establish a speculation list.
Summary
This bill would require the Department of Housing Preservation & Development (HPD) to create a publicly available “watch list” of rent-regulated buildings where, based on several factors, tenants might be at risk of being displaced. Buildings on the watch list may be prioritized for HPD preservation programs or initiatives. An example of a factor indicating a displacement risk would be a low “capitalization rate,” which indicates that a developer purchased a property for more than market value and might suggest that the developer plans to displace current tenants to transition the property to a more lucrative use.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to allowing service stations with certain technologies to simultaneously fill their storage tanks while dispensing gas to customers
Summary
Existing DCA rule prevents gas stations from allowing customers to pump gas while a refueling tank is delivering gasoline to the station’s underground storage tank. The purpose of this rule is to protect consumers from pumping water in with gasoline, which can damage vehicles. Advances in storage tank technology have eliminated the need for this rule. This local law would permit those gas stations that have such technology to allow customers to dispense gas while the station’s tank is being refueled.

The report would also examine other types of crossings that allow pedestrians to cross while traffic is stopped in all directions and would include an update to DOT’s August 2016 left turn pedestrian and bicyclist crash study.

Summary
This bill would require the city to provide the services of blood pressure testing machines for public use at no cost. Providing free, blood pressure machines for public use would enable citizens, especially un- and under-insured, at-risk individuals, to routinely monitor their blood pressures and possibly encourage them to seek medical treatment, or make life changes to lower their blood pressures in the event self-testing consistently reveals elevated levels. This law could therefore potentially save lives.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to increasing maximum charges for towing motor vehicles
Summary
This bill increases the maximum fees that a company may charge to tow certain vehicles. Currently, fees generally range from $125-$140 for towing (often including the first 3 days of car storage) and $15-27 per day for storage thereafter. The new fee limits would be:

To remove a vehicle parked in front of a private driveway or on private property: $225 for removal and 3 days of storage, plus $40 per extra day of storage.

To tow a passenger vehicle from an arterial roadway: $225, plus, if the owner has the car towed somewhere other than a storage facility, $5 per mile or part thereof.

To remove vehicles obstructing traffic, involved in an accident or under the rotation tow program: For a vehicle 10,000 pounds or less, $225 for removal, plus $40 per day for storage. For a heavier vehicle, $300 for removal, plus $100 per day for storage. In addition, a mileage fee of $5 for each mile or part thereof.

The bill also makes stylistic changes and corrects certain outdated cross-references.
