Summary
Building Commissioner Felix Perry told the Unsafe Building Hearing Authority that unsafe-building cases are usually complaint-driven and are evaluated by structural integrity and the condition or presence of water, utility, and sanitary systems. The guidance was provided at the Authority's June 15, 2026 organizational meeting.
At the June 15, 2026 organizational meeting, Building Commissioner Felix Perry summarized how unsafe-building cases are initiated and evaluated. He said cases may be opened through various methods but are most commonly complaint-driven, and he listed criteria used to determine whether a structure qualifies as unsafe.
Perry identified the main criteria as structural integrity and the condition or presence of water, utility, and sanitary systems. The minutes characterize the remarks as an overview of the process that will guide how the Authority opens and assesses cases going forward; Perry also provided a brief inventory of existing unsafe buildings in the jurisdiction during the same sequence of remarks.
The presentation was submitted as part of routine organizational business and did not include a vote. The minutes do not provide numeric counts of structures or follow-up deadlines; those details are recorded as "brief overview," not specified numerically in the meeting record.
