ELEVATOR VIOLATION SEARCH PORTAL TO BE LAUNCHED IN NYC

The NYC Department of Buildings (DoB) plans to launch a new “Elevator Violations” portal on June 17. Called “DoB NOW: Safety,” the portal will allow the public to search for elevator violations at properties, as well as fines owed for violations. Several failure-to-file payments and requests for waivers must, as of June 17, be made through the portal. Forms and research requests, such as Cashier Civil Penalty forms and elevator violation research requests, can no longer be emailed or delivered in person to the DoB’s Elevator Unit. Further details are in the DoB’s Building News newsletter.
