• Amendments to the Co-op Disclosure Law: The second hearing is on amendments to the County's co-op disclosure law.  The amendments would require that co-op boards provide a reason for the denial of an application when the co-op board notifies the County's Human Rights Commission of a denial. The measure would also require disclosure of minimum financial requirements to applicants before they apply.
