N.Y.C. Admin. Code § 15-140: § 15-140 Emergency evacuation planning for individuals with limited mobility.

By March 1, 2019, the department, in consultation with the office of emergency management and the mayor's office for people with disabilities, and in conjunction with fire code emergency preparedness requirements for apartment buildings, shall develop a planning checklist to be provided to residents in group R-2 occupancies, including individuals with disabilities or limited mobility, to assist in the development of individualized emergency evacuation plans. Such checklist shall inform residents about the availability of evacuation assistance devices and other means of evacuation, and outline recommended measures that individuals with disabilities or limited mobility can proactively take to prepare to safely evacuate a building in case of emergency, such as identifying neighbors who can provide assistance in an emergency. Such checklist shall be made available on the department's website and included in the emergency preparedness guides required by the fire code to be distributed to the residents of such buildings.
