ECB Violation Removal in NYC – Complete Guide for Property Owners

ECB Violation Removal in NYC – Complete Guide

ECB (Environmental Control Board) Violations, now managed by the OATH Hearings Division, are one of the most common issues faced by NYC property owners. These violations can lead to heavy fines, liens, increased penalties, and delays in selling or refinancing a property. Understanding how to remove an ECB violation quickly is essential to avoid financial and legal consequences.

What Is an ECB/OATH Violation?

An ECB Violation is issued when the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) or other city agencies find non-compliant conditions on a property. The violation is then transferred to OATH for a hearing. Property owners must correct the issue and attend the hearing or face additional penalties.

Common Types of ECB Violations

  • Work Without a Permit (WWP)
  • Illegal Construction or Occupancy
  • Failure to Maintain Building Conditions
  • Unsafe Plumbing, Electrical, or Structural Work
  • Failure to Comply With Safety Regulations

Why You Should Remove ECB Violations Immediately

ECB Violations can have serious impacts on your property, such as:

  • High financial penalties and interest charges
  • Property liens for unpaid penalties
  • Delays in selling, refinancing, or renting the property
  • Increased scrutiny from DOB inspectors
  • Stop Work Orders if related violations are not resolved
