Recently Adopted Rules

After an agency conducts a public hearing and reviews submitted comments, the agency must publish the final, or adopted, rule on the NYC Rules website. The final rule takes effect 30 days after its publication.

This page includes all rules that have been adopted in the past two years. Older rules can be viewed in the Rules of the City of New York.

Please note that public comments can only be viewed online until the rule’s effective date. To view comments after the rule’s effective date, you must submit a request directly to the rulemaking agency.
