This bill mandates that owners of multiple dwellings with nine or more units provide specific maintenance services, which include managing waste disposal receptacles, maintaining common areas, ensuring safe passage on sidewalks and driveways, operating heating equipment, and fulfilling any other routine maintenance required by existing law. Additionally, it allows municipalities to extend these maintenance requirements to owners of multiple dwellings with six to eight units.

The bill outlines that maintenance services can be performed by the owner if they reside on the premises, by maintenance staff or service providers who also reside there, or by off-site providers located within a specified distance. It also establishes that if a designated maintenance provider is not the owner, they share responsibility for compliance with the maintenance requirements and can be held liable for violations. Furthermore, the bill requires owners to display a sign with the contact information of the maintenance provider, which must be updated within five days of any changes.
