Bill > A00287

This bill amends the New York City administrative code to modify the responsibilities for curb and curb cut repairs. Specifically, the bill establishes that for one, two, or three-family homes, homeowners can request curb repairs through NYC 311 or the city's official website. Once a repair request is submitted, the city's department responsible for infrastructure must complete the repairs within ninety days. If the repairs are not completed within this "reasonable amount of time," the homeowner is authorized to hire a licensed contractor to perform the repairs and will be eligible to receive a property tax credit for the reasonable cost of the work. The bill also updates language related to the commissioner's office, replacing gendered pronouns with more neutral terminology. The changes aim to provide homeowners with a clear process for addressing curb repair needs and ensuring timely infrastructure maintenance.
