New York Laws
Article 29 - Residential Emergency Services to Offer Home Repairs to the Elderly Program
1260 - Statement of Legislative Findings.

ยง 1260. Statement of legislative findings. The legislature hereby
finds and declares that there exists in New York state a need for
financial resources to assist senior citizen homeowners with the cost of
addressing emergencies and code violations that pose a threat to their
health and safety, or affecting the livability of their home. Providing
assistance for the cost of making such critical repairs will enable many
seniors to continue to live independently in their own homes.
