accommodations as to whic4 such finding has been made, shall be
forthwith scheduled for orderly decontrol, with due regard to preventing uncertainty, hardship and dislocation, by order of such
agency; provided, however, that notwithstanding any proVision of

Classes of housing accommodations
City rent and rehabilitation administration and city rent administrator were
not bound by census data in establishing
particular classes of housing accommodation for purpose of this section authorizing decontrol in case there is aS percent vacancy rate for particular class of
housing accommodations. Campo Corp.
v. City Rent and Rehabilitation Administration, 1966, 49 Misc.2d 840, 268 N. Y .
S.2d 474, affirmed 26 A.D.2d 771, 272
N.Y.S.2d 701.

2. Studies and investigations
City rent and rehabilitation administration and city rent administrator were
entitled to use results of research of person regardless of purpose for which he
was engaged, his independent research
might be taken into consideration in determining vacancy rates and his analysis
might be used in determination of classifications contemplated by this section
providing for decontrol in event there is
S percent vacancy in a particular class of
housing accommodations. Campo Corp.
v. City Rent and Rehabilitation Administration, 1966, 49 Misc.2d 840, 268 N.Y.
S.2d 474, affirmed 26 A.D.2d 771, 272

3.. Failure to Issue decontrol order
Mandamus was not available to compel rent administrator, who was required to decontrol rents upon occurrence of 5 percent vacancy rate, to issue
decontrol
order although petitioner
claimed that vacancies were in excess of
5 percent of gross vacancy rate rather
than net vacancy rate, used by administrator, were employed. Lampert v. Berman, 1967, 55 Misc.2d 99, 284 N.Y.S.2d

and city rent administrator to find vacancy rate of 5 percent in certain housing accommodations and to compel
them to schedule public hearing as
precedent to decontrolling such housing
accommodations failed to establish, even
prima facie, that delay in fixing classes
to be used for purposes of this section
permitting decontrol under certain circumstances was unreasonable or due to
bad faith. Campo Corp. v. City Rent and
Rehabilitation Administration,
1966, 49
Misc.2d 840, 268 N.Y.S.2d 474, affirmed
26 A.D.2d 771, 272 N.Y.S.2d 701.

Surveys of need for rent control

As provided in subdivision three of section one of the local
emergency housing rent control act I, the mayor shall cause to be
made, and shall present to the council a report of the results of, a
survey of the supply of housing accommodations within the city,
the condition of such accommodations and the need for continuing
the regulation and control of residential rents and evictions within
the city.
