DOT Sidewalk Violations

What is a sidewalk violation?

Sidewalk violations are official notices issued by the Department of Transportation stating that the sidewalk is defective. After the violation is issued by the DOT, it is filed with the County Clerk for the property’s respective borough. The violation remains on the Clerk’s records until they receive official notice that repairs have been made and accepted.

Sidewalk violations are tied to the property’s block and lot, and there can only be one active violation associated with a single block and lot. If there are multiple violations associated with a single block and lot, the most recently issued violation is active, and the remainder are superseded.
