GAS LEAK NOTICE ENGLISH SPANISH SIGN
ALUMINIUM RUST FREE 8.5X11 INCH COMMERCIAL USE
Under HMC § 27-2005 (Local Law 153 of 2016), property owners are legally required to inform tenants about the proper procedures to follow when a gas leak is suspected. This crucial safety measure ensures that tenants are aware of the steps to take in an emergency, reducing potential hazards. The law mandates that owners provide this information in two ways: first, by delivering a written notice to each tenant and prospective tenant as part of their lease or lease renewal package; and second, by posting and maintaining a visible notice in a common area of the building. This requirement applies to all tenant-occupied units, including 1- and 2-family homes, ensuring that both small and large residential properties comply with safety regulations.
The format and content of the required gas leak notice must adhere to the specifications outlined in Section 12-11 of Chapter 12 of Title 28 of the Rules of the City of New York. The posted sign must be clearly visible in a common area, such as the lobby or main entrance, where tenants can easily access the information. Additionally, Section 12-12.1 allows property owners the option to combine the gas leak notice with required notifications about smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. This combined notice provides tenants with essential emergency instructions in one convenient location, enhancing compliance and overall safety awareness.
By adhering to Local Law 153 of 2016, property owners contribute to tenant safety and emergency preparedness while avoiding potential penalties for non-compliance. Properly distributing and displaying these notices helps prevent delayed responses to gas leaks, which can lead to severe consequences, including fires and explosions. Owners should regularly check that the posted notices remain intact and legible, ensuring that all residents have continuous access to this vital safety information.
