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 themDOB 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 violationOther 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.
