Council Member Riley inquires whether the Department of Buildings (DOB) requires landlords to notify displaced tenants once repairs are completed. DOB representatives confirm they have no such requirements and decline to comment on related resolutions.

  • DOB confirms they don't require landlords to notify displaced tenants about completed repairs.
  • The department representatives are not prepared to comment on specific resolutions.
  • This exchange highlights a potential gap in policies regarding communication with displaced tenants.
