The Department of Buildings cited a property for running an expired temporary construction fence, per OATH/ECB hearing records.
The violation location is 58-42 76th Street in Queens, block 2822, lot 31, zip 11379. Inspectors observed the fence still standing on July 1, 2026, under job application Q01080910-I1-FN.
The permit for that fence had expired December 31, 2025. DOB filed the citation under code section BC105, charge code B207 — temporary construction equipment installed on an expired permit.
OATH assessed a $1,250 penalty. The hearing, held September 8, 2026, closed with a finding of 'in violation' and a compliance status of 'All Terms Met' — the fine paid, no balance due.
Why it matters: a temporary fence or shed permit expiring mid-job is one of the most common ways a compliant site turns into an open ECB ticket, and DOB's field inspectors check expiration dates, not just whether the equipment is still up.
What to do: pull the expiration date on every active temporary construction equipment permit — fences, sheds, scaffolds — against your actual site schedule now, and file the renewal (job application amendment) before the date passes, not after an inspector flags it.
