Local Law 11 98 Facade Inspection
Local Law 11/98, which is also known as the Facade Inspection and Safety Program (FISP), is a law implemented by New York City that requires the city to inspect its building facades for safety purposes. According to this law, all buildings of six stories and above are subject to a mandatory facade inspection every five years. The program seeks to identify the possible hazards from loose masonry, cracks, or deterioration of the facade. Local Law 11/98 observance is imperative not only as a law but also for safety purposes in an urban environment.
Why Local Law 11/98 Adherence is Necessary?
Nonconformity with NYC Local Law 11 can lead to severe penalties, strict legal liabilities, and even unsafe states posing hazards to the public. Moreover, non-conformity may be subjected to unnecessary costs along with disruptions in the building's process.

Compliance is not optional but compulsory
The law requires building owners of buildings exceeding six stories in height.
