OATH's Brooklyn hearing calendar closed out two unrelated Department of Buildings cases on the morning of September 2, per OATH/ECB Hearings (Case Status) records — one over exposed construction debris in Midwood, the other over an illegal basement apartment in Brownsville. Both respondents were found 'in violation,' and both cases already show a compliance status of 'All Terms Met.'
The first ticket, No. 039555966K, cites a site at 1262 East 7 Street, Brooklyn, 11230. DOB's violation details describe 'overloaded exposed debris' at the site's fourth exposure and a missing fence at that same exposure, with construction debris also noted adjacent to 1258 East 7 Street. The charge — Failure to Maintain Adequate Housekeeping, Building Code section B212 — carried a $1,250 total violation amount. The respondent is listed as Builders Joseph and Sons, with a filing address on record in Brooklyn, 11230; the record does not give a street address for that filing address.
The second, Ticket No. 035724125P, covers 348 East 98 Street, Brooklyn, 11212. DOB's inspection recorded an occupancy 'contrary to that allowed by' the certificate of occupancy — an illegal Class A apartment built out of basement rooms, with a gas range, sink, and bathroom present. The charge, Occupancy Contrary to C of O under Administrative Code B203, also carried a $1,250 violation amount. The respondent, Kwok Man Mok, has a filing address on record in Queens, 11375; again, no street address is given.
Per OATH's docket, both cases list a $0 balance due, $0 penalty imposed, and $0 paid amount alongside the $1,250 violation total on each — the docket simply marks both 'All Terms Met.' Neither record shows an injury, a stop-work order, or an open permit tied to the violation. For contractors and site supers, the housekeeping citation is the more instructive of the two: fencing and debris containment at active exposures are routine DOB inspection points, and a $1,250 ticket is the inexpensive version of what a repeat citation at the same address can turn into.
Separately, DOB's complaint intake logged three new active complaints on September 1 — an elevator complaint at 2115 Rockaway Parkway, Brooklyn, 11236; a complaint at 514 East 240 Street, Bronx, 10470; and one at 711 Second Avenue, Manhattan, 10016 — per DOB Complaints Received records. None of the three has a hearing result yet. A complaint is an intake record, not a finding, and none of the three is connected to the two closed OATH cases above.
Owners, GCs, and subs working near either address, or anyone tracking their own docket, can look up these tickets directly through OATH's Hearings Division Case Status dataset on NYC Open Data (data.cityofnewyork.us/City-Government/OATH-Hearings-Division-Case-Status-/jz4z-kudi). Both tickets here — 039555966K and 035724125P — are searchable now that their hearings are marked complete.
