New York S07601 authorizes municipal broadband service companies to provide broadband service to tenants in multi-family housing.

New York S07601 amends the public service law to authorize municipal broadband service companies to provide broadband service to tenants in multi-family housing. The bill prohibits landlords from interfering with the installation of such services, demanding or accepting payment for allowing the service, or discriminating in rental charges between tenants who receive broadband service and those who do not. Rental agreements and leases executed before January 1, 1973, may be enforced despite this change.
