Record 1: ECB Violation #39150202P — Work Without Permit / Unapproved Construction
What the source record says
The public description for 77-02 19 Avenue, Queens, NY 11370 states: “WORK WITHOUT A PERMIT. NOTE: OBSERVED CHAIN-LINK FENCE, APPROXIMATELY 110 LINEAR FT HAZARDOUSLY ERECTED AT THIS LOCATION BLOCKING ACCESS TO THE SIDEWALK AND A SECTION OF THE STREET ON 19 ROAD WITHOUT A DOB OR D” Because the inspector identified a location within the premises, photos and repair proof should match that same area. Permit history should be compared against the alleged work, approved plans, contractor invoices, and any restoration or legalization path. Site-safety proof should be dated because DOB focuses on conditions at the inspection time. Curb or sidewalk issues may require DOT/DOB records and proof of restoration to legal condition.
What this category usually means
The record appears to involve work DOB alleges was performed without required approval, permit issuance, or approved documents.
What a hearing on this record may have focused on
A hearing on this type of record may have asked whether the observed work existed, whether a permit covered it, whether the respondent was legally responsible, and whether the work was restored or legalized.
Documents and proof worth reviewing now
- permits
- approved drawings
- before-and-after photos
- contractor records
- legalization or restoration proof
Why this should not be ignored
Unpermitted work can block approvals, complicate closing or refinancing, and trigger repeat penalties.
