For Tenants

Section 93-8 gives tenants and community members a formal avenue to influence local rent regulations, since the Town Board may act on a petition — not just on its own initiative. Tenants who believe Chapter 93 should be strengthened, clarified, or changed can participate in the public hearing process that must precede any amendment. Tenant-rights organizations can often provide guidance on how to engage with the petition and public-notice process under this provision.
