(Added by Ord. No. 161,704, Eff. 11/28/86.)

Upon request by any member of the public, the Department may provide non-confidential statistical information compiled from various data sources maintained by the Department.

The Department may recover the cost of providing such services by charging $100.00 per hour for the first hour or portion thereof and $50.00 for each subsequent hour or portion thereof.

Any monies collected pursuant to this section shall be deposited by the General Manager or the General Manager’s designee into the Rent Stabilization Trust Fund.

SEC. 151.18. ADDITIONAL SERVICES CONTRACTS.

A landlord and tenant may enter into a contract for the provision of any housing service which was not a part of the original terms of the tenancy. A valid additional services contract must be written, and must describe each additional service, specify the period of time for which the additional service will be provided, and the monthly charge for the service. Termination of the tenancy shall also terminate the additional services contract. Any monies paid pursuant to an additional services contract shall not be considered rent for any purpose under this chapter. Neither the refusal of a tenant to enter into an additional services contract, nor the breach of such contract shall be a ground for termination of the tenancy. (Added by Ord. No. 156,597, Eff. 5/20/82, Oper. 5/15/82.)
