DOB Complaints and Violations

What is a DOB Complaint?

A DOB complaint is generated by an anonymous call to 311 that revolves around an issue with the general building structure, ongoing construction, or equipment within the building (elevators, boilers, etc.). Once the complaint is recorded and categorized, it is put into a queue for DOB inspectors to investigate.
