(a) An owner of a multiple dwelling is required to submit a report to the Department annually. Such report must include information regarding bedbug infestations in dwelling units during the previous year and compliance with tenant notification requirements, as provided in § 27-2018.2 of the New York City Administrative Code. Such report must be submitted on the electronic form provided by the Department on its website, provided, however, that owners of multiple dwellings who are registered pursuant to § 27-2098 as an individual or joint owner or other non-corporate form, may file such report on a paper form as approved by the Department if they are unable to use an electronic format for such submission because they do not have email or computer access. Owners who are registered in corporate form, including, but not limited to limited liability corporations, condominium corporations, cooperatives, and other corporate ownership types will continue to be required to submit annual bedbug reports in electronic format
(b) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision a of this section, a report required to be submitted by an owner pursuant to § 27-2018.2 in electronic format that is submitted on a paper form, will be considered noncompliant with such section, and will be rejected by the Department.
