Certificate of Correction / Commissioner Order — Summons 39197807X
CLASS - 2 · Issued July 27, 2026; hearing October 7, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING
DOB allegation in the source extract: FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE COMMISSIONERS ORDERS TO FILE A CERTIFICATE OF CORRECTION WITH THE DEPT. OF BUILDINGS FOR VIO# 39183662R, FILE A CERTIFICATE OF CORRECTION
Cited provision(s): 263 — AC 28-204.4 FAIL TO COMPLY W/COMMISSIONER ORDER TO FILE CERT OF CORRECTION W/DOB
How this type of condition is typically resolved
This charge focuses on failure to complete or document the DOB correction process for an earlier summons. The practical task is usually to identify the underlying summons, confirm that its physical condition was actually corrected, and complete the current DOB Certificate of Correction requirements with the supporting proof and any applicable civil-penalty documentation.
Hearing issues to verify
- Was a Certificate of Correction already submitted or approved for the underlying summons before this charge was issued?
- Does DOB's record identify the same underlying summons number and correction deadline described in this citation?
- Was the physical condition actually corrected, and can that correction be tied to the cited condition rather than a different job or location?
Evidence that may matter
- DOB NOW / AEU Certificate of Correction submission or approval record
- Before-and-after photographs tied to the cited condition
- Permits, inspection results, contractor receipts or professional statements supporting the correction
- Proof of applicable DOB civil-penalty payment or waiver, if required
Egress / Exit Obstruction — Summons 39197806Y
CLASS - 1 · Issued July 27, 2026; hearing October 7, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING
DOB allegation in the source extract: FAILURE TO PROVIDE UNOBSTRUCTED EXIT PASSAGE WAY FOR VIO# 39183663Z. OBSERVED FIRE ESCAPE LADDER BLOCK BY GUTTERS OF ADJACENT GARAGE AT EXPOSURE 3. UNABLE TO FULLY EXTEND LADDER FROM FIRE ESCAPE., REMOVE OBSTRU
Cited provision(s): 127 — 27-369,BC 1020.2 FAIL TO PROVIDE UNOBSTRUCTED EXIT PASSAGEWAY
How this type of condition is typically resolved
Egress charges are generally corrected by removing the obstruction or restoring the required exit width/path and then documenting that the means of egress is clear and code compliant.
Hearing issues to verify
- Was the cited passageway actually required egress for the affected occupancy?
- Did the alleged obstruction exist when the inspector observed it?
- Was the condition immediately removed and can the timing be documented?
Evidence that may matter
- Dated photographs showing the exit path
- Approved floor/egress plans
- Building or security logs
- Statements or work records documenting removal of stored items/obstructions
Case-specific next step
For this property, the first paid review should reconcile the 2 October summons records against the current OATH/DOB record, identify which alleged conditions remain open, and separate the hearing defense from the DOB correction / certification work. That prevents paying for correction work that does not address the actual charge—or appearing at OATH without the documents needed for the cited condition.
