You probably got a ticket for painting the cornice because of the new lead paint law that went into effect on October 1rst. Since it's exterior painting, you'd need to hire trained and licenced lead removal people and they'll wrap the house etc... to prevent the lead dust from becoming airborne.

Does your wife read JClist?

I felt really bad for the man, because the lady was acting ridiculous, unnecessarily loud and unreasonable ... what an interesting coincidence ....

Edit... I missed the end of your post where you already talked to Ed Coleman. My bad.

I never really had a problem with those guys. I am surprised your meeting ended the way it did.

Sorry, but you need a lawyer who knows how to deal with those bullies. They have no qualms about issuing COMPLETELY illegal summonses. Check your PM.

I am assuming this is from Ed Coleman's office. Go down and talk to him. I had some violations a while back that I couldn't fix in the time allotted. I spoke with him and explained my situation. He had me put an extension request in writing and was granted an extension.

Bring copies of your permits and let him know the property is going under full renovation.

Since we bought this building a year ago, we have been trying to fix it. We have a building permit and a Garbage disposal permit. It's a 3-family and we are living in two apartments renting one. What rights do we have from the Housing Department. They know we are fixing the building, yet someone is calling and reporting us for whatever violations, like painting the cornice. The housing department is issuing violations for paint. Do they do this to single family also? My building is not that bad and we spent a lot of money fixing the damages left by previous home owner. Why does the city give us violations for paint when we are fixing the whole building? Is there something we can do about this? It's almost putting the horse before the carriage. Why paint when we are still fixing? I tried to tell Edward Coleman and Mulcahy from the housing and it ended in a shout match because they refuse to listen to reason. What can we do about people reporting us and wasting our time because we already have a permit???? HELP???
