1 Section 1. This act enacts into law components of legislation relating 2 to commercial eviction and foreclosure protections, residential eviction 3 and foreclosure protections and open meetings. Each component is wholly 4 contained within a Part identified as Parts A through E. The effective 5 date for each particular provision contained within such Part is set 6 forth in the last section of such Part. Any provision in any section 7 contained within a Part, including the effective date of the Part, which 8 makes reference to a section "of this act", when used in connection with 9 that particular component, shall be deemed to mean and refer to the 10 corresponding section of the Part in which it is found. Section four of 11 this act sets forth the general effective date of this act. 12 ? 2. Legislative intent. The legislature finds and declares all of the 13 following: 14 More than two million New Yorkers have been infected by the COVID-19 15 coronavirus, and the disease has killed more than 55,000 New Yorkers 16 since March 2020. Measures necessary to contain the pandemic have 17 brought about widespread economic and societal disruption. Millions of 18 residents have experienced financial hardship due to such measures, 19 which closed businesses and schools, and resulted in income losses 20 across the state. 21 The state has enacted a series of statutes that the legislature has 22 found necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general 23 welfare of the people of New York. These measures include the Tenant 24 Safe Harbor Act ("TSHA"), the COVID-19 Emergency Eviction and Foreclo25 sure Prevention Act ("CEEFPA"), and COVID-19 Emergency Protect Our Small 26 Businesses Act ("CEPOSBA"). 27 Even as New York enters a phase of economic recovery, the need for 28 continued statutory protections and other emergency public health meas29 ures is demonstrated by rates of transmission in the state. Since early 30 July, cases have risen ten-fold, and 95 percent of the sequenced recent 31 positives in New York State were the Delta variant. 32 The evidence that residential eviction protections are effective 33 public health measures is especially strong. The CDC has repeatedly 34 found this to be so and has urged states to enact and keep residential 35 eviction moratoriums in place. A recent peer-reviewed study of state 36 eviction moratoriums found that "COVID-19 incidence and mortality 37 increased steadily in states after eviction moratoriums expired, and 38 were associated with doubling of COVID-19 incidence ... and a five-fold 39 increase in COVID-19 mortality ... 16 weeks after moratoriums lapsed." 40 In April 2021, the legislature passed the COVID-19 Emergency Rental 41 Assistance Program ("CERAP"), funded with $2.6 billion for residential 42 rent and utility assistance. To date, technical and administrative chal43 lenges, low public awareness of the program, and the slow pace of imple44 mentation have hampered the program's effectiveness in covering the cost 45 of rent arrears and providing widespread eviction protections. 46 On August 12, 2021, in the case Chrysafis v. Marks, the U.S. Supreme 47 Court enjoined the enforcement of CEEFPA's residential eviction morato48 rium, finding that provisions that provided for a tenant to self-certify 49 financial hardship and delayed a landlord from contesting the certif50 ication violated constitutional rights to due process. 51 Stabilizing housing and small businesses continues to be to the mutual 52 benefit of all New Yorkers in that these steps will help the state 53 address the COVID-19 pandemic, protect public health, and foster a full 54 and equitable recovery. The legislature is especially cognizant of the 55 ongoing risks posed by residential evictions stemming from non-payment 56 of rent during the height of the public health emergency, and its recov-

1 ery period, such as the potential to exacerbate the resurgence of 2 COVID-19, the damage significant numbers of evictions would cause to the 3 state's economic recovery, and the deleterious social and public health 4 effects of homelessness and housing instability. 5 For all of the foregoing reasons it is necessary to modify the resi6 dential eviction moratorium to address the Supreme Court's due process 7 concern, and to extend and strengthen the protections in the law. In 8 addition, it is necessary to temporarily alter certain provisions of the 9 open meetings law to ensure that certain public bodies can hold meetings 10 and conduct business in a manner that balances public health and safety 11 precautions with the public's right to observe the proceedings.

PART A
13 Section 1.
