Official summary

This bill would require a community impact statement to be included in construction documents for the creation of, or conversion to, a transient hotel. The community impact statement would be required to evaluate the impact of the proposed transient hotel on nearby emergency services, utilities, and traffic, as well as the fit of the proposed transient hotel with the surrounding area. The community impact statement would be made publicly available and shared with the relevant Borough President, Council Member, and community board before the Department of Buildings approves construction documents and grants work permits for the creation of or alteration to a transient hotel.
