Episode 058 – NYC Local Law 152: Navigating the Past, Present and Future

Realty Speak

In this special episode of Realty Speak, the tables are turned as I step in as a guest on Inside R&E, the podcast from the real estate law firm Rosenberg & Estis, P.C., hosted by Justin Weitzman.
Justin and I dive into the critical topic of Local Law 152 – Periodic Inspection of Gas Piping Systems, focusing on what Coop and Condo Boards, building owners, and property managers need to know during the second 4-year compliance cycle, which began on January 1, 2024.
We explore the fundamentals of the law, how to effectively prepare for inspections and the common challenges that stakeholders face along the way.
I also offer key insights on upcoming legislative changes that will impact which inspection observations may no longer pose issues, as well as how buildings with commercial spaces could see an expanded scope in their inspections.
