Rent Stabilization Code (RSC) (9 NYCRR) § 2524.3, which governs eviction [*2]proceedings against rent-stabilized tenants, provides, in pertinent part, that a proceeding "may only be commenced after service of the notice required by section 2524.2 of this Part (Termination Notices), upon one or more of the following grounds . . . (f) The tenant has refused, following notice pursuant to section 2523.5 of this Title (Notice For Renewal Of Lease And Renewal Procedure), to renew an expiring lease." RSC § 2523.5 (c) (3) provides, in pertinent part, that "an owner may commence an action or proceeding to recover possession of a housing accommodation in a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to sections 2524.2 (c) (1) and 2524.3 (f) of this Title, where the tenant, upon the expiration of the existing lease or agreement, fails to timely renew such lease in the manner prescribed by this section." RSC § 2524.2, entitled "Termination notices," provides, in pertinent part, "(c) Every such notice shall be served upon the tenant: (1) in the case of a notice based upon section 2524.3(f) of this Part, at least 15 days prior to the date specified therein for the surrender of possession." By the clear language of these provisions, no predicate notice other than the 15-day termination notice is required to commence a proceeding upon the ground that a tenant has failed to sign a properly offered rent-stabilized renewal lease (see 6 Greene St. Assoc. v Robbins, 256 AD2d 169, 170 [1998]).
