NYC Local Law 11 - FISP: Ensuring Structural Safety and Compliance
As a property owner in New York City, you should be aware of NYC local law, especially if you own a facade building. This law was enacted by authorities to ensure the safety of citizens in the city and to prevent tragic incidents from happening again.
This is why hiring the services of professionals like Keystone Contracting Corp, a licensed and registered Local Law Contractor in NYC with a proven track record of successful facade inspection and maintenance services to clients is very important.
Understanding Local Law 11
NYC Local Law 11, also known as Facade Inspection and Safety Program(FISP) was enacted in 1998 to curb the hazards and threats building facades posed. The law began in the 80s and was called Local Law 10, when a piece of facade fell off a building and killed a pedestrian.
Another tragic incident occurred again leading to the enactment of Local Law 11. The law demands that owners who have more than six stories have their facades thoroughly inspected and repairs undertaken by licensed Local Law Contractors to ensure the safety of both the occupants of the facade building and a pedestrian.
