        AN ACT to amend the administrative code of the  city  of  New  York,  in
          relation  to  reducing the amount of maximum rent increase collectible

          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section  1.  Paragraph  5  of  subdivision  a of section 26-405 of the
     2  administrative code of the city of  New  York  is  amended  to  read  as
     3  follows:
     4    (5)  Where  a  maximum rent established pursuant to this chapter on or
     5  after January first, nineteen hundred seventy-two, is  higher  than  the
     6  previously existing maximum rent, the landlord may not collect more than
     7  [seven  and  one-half percentum] three percent increase from a tenant in
     8  occupancy on such date in any one year period,  provided  however,  that
     9  where  the  period  for  which the rent is established exceeds one year,
    10  regardless of how the collection thereof is averaged over  such  period,
    11  the  rent  the  landlord  shall  be entitled to receive during the first
    12  twelve months shall not be increased by more than  [seven  and  one-half
    13  percentum]  three  percent  over the previous rent and additional annual
    14  rents shall not exceed [seven and one-half percentum] three  percent  of
    15  the rent paid during the previous year. Notwithstanding any of the fore-
    16  going  limitations  in  this  paragraph  five,  maximum  rent  shall  be
    17  increased if ordered by the agency pursuant to subparagraphs  (d),  (e),
    18  (f), (g), (h), (i), (k), (l), (m) or (n) of paragraph one of subdivision
    19  g  of  this  section. Commencing January first, nineteen hundred eighty,
    20  rent adjustments pursuant to subparagraph (n) of paragraph one of subdi-
    21  vision g of this section shall be excluded from the  maximum  rent  when
    22  computing  the  [seven  and  one-half  percentum] three percent increase
    23  authorized by this paragraph five.  Where  a  housing  accommodation  is
    24  vacant on January first, nineteen hundred seventy-two, or becomes vacant

     2  maximum rent established for such accommodations may be collected.
     3    §  2. This act shall take effect immediately; provided that the amend-
     4  ments to section 26-405 of the city rent and rehabilitation law made  by
