Relates to sidewalk shed permit renewal for ongoing construction projects
This bill amends New York City's building code to add new requirements for renewing permits that allow construction sites to cover sidewalks with temporary sheds. Contractors must now submit a report from a licensed professional detailing completed work, remaining scope, and estimated completion time, plus proof the project has used the shed for at least 10 days per month over the past year. The city's commissioner must inspect sites and verify documentation, with false claims carrying a $1,000 civil penalty. It directly affects construction contractors seeking to extend sidewalk shed permits during ongoing projects.
