BILL NUMBER: S3861 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the private housing finance law, in relation to mutual companies in a city with a population of one million or more PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL : The purpose of this bill is to allow cooperatives to leave the Mitchell-Lama program without causing immediate harm to the tenants who rely on them. The tenants will be given proper and timely notice of the cooperatives' plans and also an offer to sell their shares back to the housing company. Otherwise, they will be given one- or two-year leases during which time they should be able to find appropriate housing alternatives. This way, both the cooperatives and the tenants should be able to proceed in a way that will prevent negative outcomes for everyone involved. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS : This bill would require a Mitchell-Lama cooperative operating a project in a city with a population of one million or more that is seeking to dissolve to offer cooperators at least ninety days before the dissolution date an opportunity to sell their shares back to the housing company. After the sale, these cooperators would become rent stabilized tenants with one or two year leases and their units would be decontrolled upon vacancy. After dissolution, the initial legal regulated rent for such units would be the last carrying charges
