Compliance deadlines

RequirementDueStatus
Annual parapet observation Check
Local Law 126 · By December 31 each year
What this is

If the building has a parapet facing a street, sidewalk or other public way, a competent person (such as a mason, engineer or architect) must observe it every year and the owner keeps the report for DOB on request. Detached one- and two-family homes are exempt. Agency page

Dec 31, 2026
in 51 days		Keep the report on file (not filed with DOB)
Energy and water benchmarking Likely applies
Local Law 84 · May 1 each year
What this is

Buildings over 25,000 sq ft (this lot shows 29,250 sq ft) report energy and water use for the prior calendar year through ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager. The city's Covered Buildings List is the final word on which buildings must file. Agency page

May 1, 2027
in 172 days		Annual filing
Building emissions report Likely applies
Local Law 97 · May 1 each year (extensions available)
What this is

Covered buildings file an annual greenhouse gas emissions report certified by a registered design professional. Buildings over their emissions limit owe penalties, so it pays to check early. Agency page

May 1, 2027
in 172 days		Annual filing
Gas piping inspection (2029 cycle) Likely applies
Local Law 152 · During 2029
What this is

Buildings with gas piping (except one- and two-family homes) need a periodic gas piping inspection by a licensed master plumber every four years. Community district 2 is on the 2029 cycle; certification is filed with DOB after the inspection. Buildings with no gas piping file a certification instead. Agency page
