What is Local Law Compliance?
Local Law compliance refers to the fulfillment of safety, energy, and structural maintenance requirements mandated by the New York City Department of Buildings (DOB). These laws vary in focus—ranging from façade inspection (LL11), energy efficiency (LL84/97), to fire prevention (LL26). Failure to comply with these regulations can result in hefty fines, building violations, insurance issues, or safety hazards.
Why is Local Law Compliance Important?
Staying compliant with NYC Local Laws is not just a legal obligation—it’s vital for building safety, insurance validity, and property value. For example, under Local Law 11, buildings over six stories must undergo façade inspections every five years to detect unsafe conditions that could endanger pedestrians or residents. Non-compliance can lead to violations, court summons, or stop-work orders.
Scope of Work
Our Local Law compliance service begins with a detailed review of your building’s existing records, inspection history, and any outstanding violations. We then coordinate with licensed architects and engineers to perform mandatory inspections, generate required reports (e.g., FISP reports for LL11), and file all documentation with the NYC DOB.
