This bill would require the critical examinations of building façades for newly constructed buildings, currently due five years after the completion of any exterior wall or appurtenance, to be submitted eight years after completion, and would require the Department of Buildings to coordinate the submission of critical examination reports as practicable so that all façades repairs on a given block occur simultaneously.
