A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the issuance of building permits for areas in which a certified rezoning application is pending

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1. Section 28-103.11 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as amended by local law number 10 for the year 2016, is amended to read as follows:

                     § 28-103.11 Applications and permits. The department shall receive and review applications, construction documents, and other related documents and shall issue permits, in accordance with the provisions of this code. The department shall, on a weekly basis, send council members and community boards, by electronic mail, a copy of all completed applications for a new building or an alteration that will require a new certificate of occupancy for a building, received during the prior week, disaggregated by community board. In addition, the department shall post such information on its website on a weekly basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon certification by the city planning commission of an application for rezoning any area of the city, the department shall not issue any permits for construction on a site located in such area that would not be in compliance with the zoning for such area provided for in the certified rezoning application.

§ 2. This local law takes effect October 1, 2025.
