Establishing a temporary program to resolve certain outstanding reports and associated unpaid civil penalties required by the DOB and reporting in relation thereto.

A Local Law in relation to establishing a temporary program to resolve certain outstanding reports and associated unpaid civil penalties required by the department of buildings and reporting in relation thereto

This bill would require the Department of Finance (DOF) to establish a one-year program for owners to resolve outstanding reports, owed to the Department of Buildings (DOB) for the past six calendar years, and any associated unpaid civil penalties. Under the temporary program, an owner could file an outstanding report and pay $500 per report to resolve any associated unpaid civil penalties. The bill would also require DOF and DOB to conduct community outreach and to report on the results of the program.
