NYC rules that apply here

Based on the building’s size, age and type. These apply whether or not anything is open.

  • Sidewalk shed / scaffold upAn active DOB NOW permit for a sidewalk shed, scaffold or construction fence. A shed is a monthly rental cost, and one that stays up for years usually means facade repairs are stalled. The permit has to be renewed while the shed stands; an expired shed permit is a violation.
  • LL97: emission limits from 2024On DOB’s Local Law 97 list under Article 320: emission limits since January 1, 2024, report every May 1.
  • LL87 energy auditOn DOB’s Local Law 87 list: an energy audit and retro-commissioning report every ten years, the year set by the block number’s last digit.
  • LL88 lightingOn DOB’s Local Law 88 list: lighting in non-residential and common spaces had to meet code by January 1, 2025 (and tenant submeters in the largest buildings), with a report to DOB.
  • HPD registration if rented outA one- or two-family home must register with HPD when neither the owner nor the owner’s family lives there. Read the guide
  • Lead-paint rules for rented unitsBuilt before 1960: an apartment rented to a tenant falls under Local Law 1 (presumed lead paint, turnover work, records). Read the guide
  • Natural gas alarms by January 1, 2027Every apartment in a building with gas service needs a natural gas alarm (Local Law 157 of 2016, deadline set by Local Law 102 of 2025). Read the guide
  • Energy benchmarking and Local Law 97About 339,320 sq ft, over the 25,000 sq ft line: Local Law 84 benchmarking and the Local Law 97 emissions report are due May 1 if the building is on the covered list. Over 50,000 sq ft, a Local Law 87 energy audit is due every ten years. Read the guide

How NYC violations are cleared

HPD violations

Housing code violations in three classes: C (immediately hazardous, such as no heat or lead paint), B (hazardous) and A (non-hazardous). Each is closed by correcting the condition and certifying the correction to HPD within its deadline.

HPD violation classes and how to clear them

DOB violations and ECB summonses

Building code items such as boilers, elevators, gas piping and facades. DOB violations block permits and Certificates of Occupancy until dismissed; ECB summonses also carry a hearing and a penalty.

How to remove a DOB violation

Other OATH summonses

Sanitation, environmental, health and fire-code summonses are heard at OATH. Each has a hearing date, and a missed hearing becomes a default at the maximum penalty.
