An act to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in
relation to making conforming technical changes; and to repeal subdivi-
sion 5 of section 192 of the agriculture and markets law, in relation to
the requirement that any person, firm or corporation that sells or
offers for sale at retail any motor fuel for use in internal combustion
engines in motor vehicles or motorboats posts on the dispensing device

PURPOSE:

markets law and renumbers subdivision 6 as subdivision 5.

Section two amends the opening paragraph of subdivision a of section
20-672 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as amended by
local law number 79 of the city of New York for the year 2015, to the
following: (Except as provided in subdivision 5 of section one hundred
ninety-two of the agriculture and markets law, it) It shall be unlawful
for any person, in connection with the sale or offer for sale at retail
of any petroleum products for use in motor vehicles or motor boats, to
post or maintain at such place of sale any sign, placard or other
display that states the price at which such petroleum products are sold
or offered for sale, except as follows:

Section three states this act shall take effect immediately.
