FISP (Formerly Local Law 11) Report

The New York City Department of Buildings requires that every building over 6 stories be inspected every 5 years under Facade Inspection Safety Program.(FISP). The law mandates a critical examination of the building appurtenances and exterior walls by a licensed architect or professional engineer within a two year window in cycles occurring every five years. Additional supplementary inspections of balconies, guardrails and fire escapes were introduced during 7th cycle. A detailed report of the findings and status of the building must be submitted to D.O.B and the owner of the building.
