Building's 7-A Administrator Is Responsible for FDNY Violations

LVT Number: #31157

The Fire Department issued two violation notices to landlord, for failing to obtain a permit for oil storage and use in the basement boiler, and failure to provide a fire extinguisher in the boiler room as required by the Fire Code. Landlord claimed that he wasn't the owner but the building's 7-A Administrator, under the direction of HPD. He claimed that he had applied for a boiler permit the day the violation was issued and installed a fire extinguisher prior to the cure date.
