Façade / Exterior Wall — Summons 39168733J
CLASS - 1 · Issued December 1, 2025; hearing October 6, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING

Cited provision(s): 102 — 28-301.1 FAILURE TO MAINTAIN BLDG IN CODE-COMPLIANT MANNER
How this type of condition is typically resolved
Exterior-wall charges usually require a competent inspection of the cited façade/appurtenance, repair of unsafe or deteriorated conditions, and—when the building is subject to FISP—the appropriate QEWI report or amended filing.
Hearing issues to verify
- Does the inspector's description match the actual exposure, floor and defect?
- Was the condition already repaired or protected before the summons date?
- Was there a current FISP/QEWI filing addressing the same condition?
Evidence that may matter
- QEWI report, FISP filing or amended report
- Close-up and elevation photographs identifying the exact defect
- Repair proposals, invoices and completion records
- Engineer/architect letter and inspection documentation
Work Without a Permit — Summons 39169578N
CLASS - 1 · Issued December 6, 2025; hearing October 13, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING
DOB allegation in the source extract: WORK WITHOUT PERMIT. AT REAR OF PREMISES I OBSERVED WORKED PERFORMING UNKNOWN FACADE WORK WAS BEING DONE REPAIRING A GAPING HOLE AND CRACKS AT REAR OF BUILDING. THERE ARE NO PERMITS ON FILE FOR THIS WORK., OBTA
Cited provision(s): 101 — 28-105.1 WORK WITHOUT A PERMIT
How this type of condition is typically resolved
The correction path usually starts by determining whether the observed work required a permit and whether the condition can legally remain. If it can remain, legalization may require plans, a filing, permit, inspections and closeout; if it cannot or the owner does not want to legalize it, restoration to a lawful condition may be required.
Hearing issues to verify
- Did a valid permit already cover the exact work described by the inspector on the issue date?
- Was the cited activity actually permit-required work, or was it maintenance / exempt work under the applicable facts?
- Do the approved drawings, permit scope and inspection history match the condition the inspector described?
- If a Stop Work Order was issued, was the work stopped and was any later work performed only after the required authorization?
Evidence that may matter
- Permit and DOB NOW/BIS job records that predate the inspection
- Approved plans and amendments showing the cited work
- Dated photographs of the condition and construction stage
- Contracts, invoices and contractor statements establishing what work was actually performed
- Inspection / sign-off records if the work was subsequently legalized
Other Building / Code Compliance — Summons 39169580M
CLASS - 1 · Issued December 6, 2025; hearing October 22, 2026. · Hearing status: PENDING
DOB allegation in the source extract: FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH COMMISSIONERS ORDERS. AT TIME OF REINSPECTION THE VACATE THAT WAS ISSUED ON 11/29/25 WAS NO T BEING FOLLOWED WITH OCCUPANCY OBSERVED AT APTS #1 AND #2 WHILE ILLEGAL CONSTRUCTION WORK WAS
Cited provision(s): 187 — 28-201.1 UNLAWFUL ACTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH AN ORDER OF THE COMMISSIONER
How this type of condition is typically resolved
The first step is to read the inspector's narrative together with every cited code section and determine exactly what act, condition or missing filing DOB alleges. The correction and hearing strategy should then be built around that specific charge rather than a generic violation-removal checklist.
Hearing issues to verify
- Does the summons identify the correct property, respondent, date and observed condition?
- Do agency records support or contradict the inspector's description?
- Was the condition corrected, permitted or otherwise resolved before the hearing?
Evidence that may matter
- Official DOB/OATH property and summons records
- Dated photographs and videos
- Permits, approved plans and inspection results
- Contracts, receipts, professional letters or witness statements tied to the cited condition
Case-specific next step
For this property, the first paid review should reconcile the 3 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.
