JUSTIFICATION:

Hundreds of thousands of small businesses call New York City home.  They
instill the neighborhoods across our city with the vibrant and unique
culture that makes New York internationally known. Besides adding to the
charm of the city, small businesses are engines of economic growth and
pathways to economic self-sufficiency for their owners--many of whom are
immigrants--and over half of the New York City workforce that is
employed by small businesses. Small businesses contribute to the
successes of the city's tourism and film industries by attracting visi-
tors and film productions, and they generate millions for the state in
sales tax revenue. Perhaps most importantly, small businesses like bode-
gas, local supermarkets, barber shops, and nail salons provide essential
goods and services for community members at affordable prices.

Despite the high value that small businesses provide to their neighbor-
hoods, current city and state regulations, or lack thereof, make operat-
ing a small business incredibly challenging. Chief among the challenges
faced by existing small business owners and entrepreneurs is rent and
leasing. While residential tenants benefit from a number of rights under
the law, commercial tenants are afforded practically zero, especially
when it comes to the negotiation of leases, rent increases, and warranty
of habitability.

The status quo has resulted in the citywide devastation of many beloved
small business and unrealized economic gains to the city and state due
to entrepreneurs seeking out other locations to start or expand their
businesses. When small businesses have the opportunity and stability
scale up, their employees reap the benefits in the form of increased
wages, subsidized health care, and paid time off.  When rent is left to
the whims of the market, small business owners lose out and landlords
warehouse their storefronts, waiting for a chain who can afford to pay a
higher rent. The Center for an Urban Future estimates over 7,300 chain
stores exist in New York City, a figure that has increased for the past
10 years since the initial study.

Creating the conditions small businesses owners need in order to provide
for their communities and employees should be a top priority.  Residen-
tial rent regulation in the form of rent stabilized housing has been a
boon to over 1 million tenants in New York City and a safeguard against
sharp and sudden increases to rent. Every year the Rent Guidelines Board
goes through a process to determine rent adjustments for stabilized
apartments, lofts and hotels by holding public meetings to consider
staff research and hear testimony from owners, tenants, industry
experts, and advocates. This legislation would subject commercial leases
to a similar process in order to offer commercial tenants a measure of
predictability and impartiality when it comes to setting rents.

 VALUE. THE LANDLORD SHALL NOTIFY THE TENANT OF HIS OR  HER  DECISION  TO
 REOCCUPY  THE  PREMISES  AT  LEAST  ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY DAYS PRIOR TO THE
 TERMINATION OF THE LEASE. IN THE EVENT THAT  THE  LANDLORD  FRAUDULENTLY

 A RESULT OF SUCH ACTION.
   E. WHERE THE LANDLORD AGREES TO RENEW THE LEASE OF THE CURRENT TENANT,
