S 1317 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Enacts the New York city department of buildings community accountability act

This bill requires New York City's Department of Buildings to publicly post specific safety data online, directly affecting construction companies, building owners, and residents near construction sites. Key provisions include: posting records of construction accidents causing injury/death or property damage, making complaint records (with personal details redacted) available online, and providing biannual reports to community boards detailing safety violations, enforcement actions, and closure orders. The law aims to increase transparency around building safety compliance by making this data accessible to the public. It does not change building codes but mandates new reporting mechanisms for existing enforcement records.
