Latest version.
  • a. No kitchen shall be occupied for
      sleeping purposes.
        b. No rooming unit shall be occupied by a family with  a  child  under
      the  age  of  sixteen  years, except that if a child is born to a family
      residing in  such  accommodations,  the  unlawful  occupancy  shall  not
      commence until one year after the birth of such child. In any case where
      such an unlawful occupancy continues for ten days after the service of a
      notice  of violation upon both the tenant and owner, the department may,
      in addition to  all  other  remedies,  institute  a  proceeding  for  an
      injunction  pursuant  to article four of subchapter five of this chapter
      to obtain an order requiring that such violation be remedied by eviction
      or removal of the tenant. The provisions of this subdivision  shall  not
      prohibit  such occupancy (1) in rooming units operated without profit by
      an  educational,  religious  or  charitable  institution  of  the   type
      described  and  for  the  purposes set forth in subdivision a of section
      27-2077 of this article, or (2) in a summer resort dwelling.
