Referral of certain elevator-related violations to the dept of HPD for consideration under the emergency repair program.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the referral of certain elevator-related violations to the department of housing preservation and development for consideration under the emergency repair program

Proposed Int. No. 462-A would require the Department of Buildings (DOB) to refer immediately hazardous elevator-related violations to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) for action under the emergency repair program, if DOB finds that the owner has not corrected those violations. It would also require HPD to report on the number of such referrals and on any actions taken under the emergency repair program in response to such referrals.
