New York's Cooperative and Condominium Community
We just passed a House Rule that there can only be three pets to an apartment. In our research we discovered that there are NYState laws protecting pet owners who had pets before rules were passed. They are automatically granfathered in...
HOWEVER
also in this law, if anyone has a NEW pet for more than three (or six, I cant remember) months -- and no one complains, it is automatically granfathered in. This is all on the NYState DOB site... This law was passed due to landlords harrassing tenets (usually elderly) who would rather move than part with their pets. As uncomfortable as it is, if you feel strongly about this issue and your neighbor gets a new pet -- you have to turn him/her in. (I own three pets) PS: Pets make happier neighbors: VP
