In Consolidated Edison Co. of N.Y. v. City of New Rochelle (140 A.D.2d 125 [2d Dept 1988]) the local law required that gas service line installations on private property be performed by licensed plumbers (id. at 128). After reviewing the legislative history, the Court held that Public Service Law 31 (4) preempted further regulation concerning the new installation of gas service lines for private residential buildings, and that the local law was inconsistent with state law (id. at 133-134).
