Last March, Governor Cuomo signed into law a new provision requiring the New York State Division of Human Rights (DHR) to issue regulations requiring housing providers “to provide notice to all tenants and prospective tenants … of their rights to request reasonable modifications and accommodations” for persons with disabilities. Although this law became effective last year, enforcement of the notice requirement was delayed until DHR promulgated its rules. On May 18, DHR finally adopted the rules.
