      HPD discusses Intro 621, which seeks to add illegal eviction to the housing maintenance code definition of harassment and as a criterion for buildings selected for the Certificate of No Harassment (CONH) pilot program.

      • HPD interprets illegal eviction as already included in the existing definition of harassment
      • The department has no concerns about explicitly adding it to the definition
      • HPD expresses concerns about adding illegal eviction as a new criterion for the CONH pilot program at this time
      • The department suggests considering the incorporation of new criteria when the CONH program is potentially reauthorized in 2026
