REQUIRING OWNERS TO SUBMIT SUFFICIENT COPIES OF DESIGNATED
APPLICATIONS TO THE DHCR TO ENABLE THE DIVISION TO SERVE
ALL AFFECTED TENANTS WITH COPIES OF SUCH APPLICATIONS
This Revised Operational Bulletin is issued pursuant to:
City Rent and Eviction Regulations - Section 2209.8
Rent Stabilization Code - Section 2527.11
Pursuant to Operational Bulletin 90-1, effective August 1, 1990,
owners are required to submit a sufficient number of copies of
the following applications, as well as Major Capital Improvement
("MCI") rent increase applications, upon filing thereof with the
Office of Rent Administration (ORA), to enable ORA to serve each
affected tenant:
Building-Wide Increase, Decrease, or Substitution of
Services
Building-Wide Restoration of Rent
Owner's Petition for Administrative Review (PAR) (of orders
affecting multiple tenants)
Owners are also required to submit a 4" x 1" self-sticking
mailing label addressed to each affect tenant, which must be 4"
wide and 1" high, to accommodate DHCR's window envelopes. See
sample label reproduced below.

Tenant/Apt. O

Jamaica, NY 00000
Because MCI servicing is now automated and the pertinent
information from the owner's application is included in the
computer generated notices which are mailed to tenants, the
requirement that owners submit extra copies of MCI applications
and mailing labels is no longer necessary and is therefore
discontinued. The owner is still required to submit an original
and one copy of the application with all supporting
documentation.
The provisions of Operational Bulletin 90-1 with regard to the
other types of applications listed above remain in effect.
Joseph A. D'Agosta
Acting Deputy Commissioner for Rent Administration
