What is the rule on superintendents having to reside at the place that they work?
The Housing Maintenance Code, Article 13, states “a building of 9 apartments or more” and the second is the Multiple Dwelling Law Article 3/title 83, which states “a dwelling with thirteen or more tenants.” Both articles state either/or… a 24 hour janitor or housekeeper or a janitor residing in the building or a janitor residing within 200 feet of the building, or the agent or owner lives in the building. Also, the basement is an acceptable place for the owner/management to house the super.
