The Stated Meeting happens every 2 weeks (4 weeks in summer), when the council votes on and introduces new legislation. Notably at this meeting, the council passed legislation on rent stabilization tax exemptions, landmark designations, rezoning proposals, recognizing the Korean War Armistice Day, school dress code policies, expanding rapid STI testing services, and banning solitary confinement in city jails. New bills were introduced related to regulating hotels, addressing illegal squatters, student wellness clubs, surplus food reduction in schools, cannabis enforcement transparency, landlord cooling requirements to combat heat deaths, and more.
