3314.20 Public housing construction projects: sidewalk sheds.*
BC § 3314.20
No sidewalk shed permit issued for construction projects on public housing developments provided by the New York city housing authority shall be renewed unless the commissioner determines that such sidewalk shed is being used as part of an ongoing construction project. Provided, however, that if removal of the sidewalk shed shall expose the public to potential harm, the commissioner shall issue a one-time renewal of such permit for a one-year period. The commissioner shall promulgate such rules and regulations as shall be necessary to implement the provisions of this section. An "ongoing construction project" shall mean any construction project during which persons employed in construction work are utilizing such sidewalk shed at least two days per week, or have utilized such sidewalk shed for at least two days per week at any time over the course of the six months immediately preceding a request to renew a sidewalk shed permit.
