1962 Edison Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461 — November 2026 NYC OATH Hearing & Violation Information

Record-specific focus: Before choosing a correction or hearing strategy, verify the source allegation concerning failure to maintain. apt.#1, bathroom ceiling has an opening/missing sheetrock. 2nd floor skylight has water damage on the wall.

What this violation means

DOB is alleging failure to maintain the building or a building component in a code-compliant condition. The broad label matters less than the particular defect described by the inspector.

What may be required to correct the condition

The cited component should be inspected and repaired by the appropriate qualified contractor or licensed/registered professional where the work requires it. Permits or filings may be needed if the repair goes beyond ordinary maintenance.

What the OATH hearing may involve

The strongest factual material usually concerns the exact condition on the inspection date: photographs, maintenance records, professional reports, repair invoices and proof of correction.

Possible defenses or factual issues worth investigating

Focus on the precise component and location in the description, whether the defect existed as alleged, whether the owner/respondent controlled that area, and whether later inspection or repair records clarify the condition.

Documents and evidence that may be useful

• dated photographs
• maintenance and repair records
• contractor or professional reports
• permits/inspection records if repair work required them
• proof of correction
