LL126

Local Law 126 requires owners of parking structures to have them assessed by qualified professionals on a recurring cycle, filing condition reports with defect-correction obligations — the newest member of the city's periodic-inspection family, enacted after a fatal garage collapse exposed how little scrutiny aging parking decks received. Coverage, cycle mechanics, and filing details follow the current rules.

Assessments grade conditions, and the middle grade — safe with repairs required — functions like the façade program's SWARMP: a certified promise with a deadline. For buildings with structured parking, the assessment trail is both a safety record and a capital forecast; parking decks corrode on schedules that the filings now make public.
