Starting today, you should notify DOHMH in writing if you’ve been unable to determine whether a tenant needs or wants window guards, or if you’ve been unable to get access to an apartment for an inspection to determine whether a child under age 6 lives there. The letter should describe the efforts you’ve made to learn of the tenant’s need for window guards and your attempts to gain access.

President’s Day is a Service Employees’ Union (Local 32BJ) contract holiday. It’s also a Sanitation Department workers’ holiday, which means there’s no garbage pickup or street cleaning.

All tenants’ responses to the Dept. of Health & Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) “Annual Notice: Protect Your Child from Lead Poisoning and Window Falls” are due today. If a tenant doesn’t return a signed and dated annual notice to you by today and you don’t know if the tenant needs or wants window guards, DOHMH regulations require that by March 1, 2025, you inspect the tenant’s apartment at “reasonable” times to determine whether a child 10 years or younger resides in the apartment and, if so, whether window guards are properly installed. And for lead-based paint, the law requires that by March 1, 2025, you inspect the occupant’s apartment at “reasonable” times to determine whether a child under age 6 lives there.

Lincoln’s Birthday is a Sanitation Department workers’ holiday, which means there’s no garbage pickup or street cleaning.

This is the last day to distribute an annual stove knob cover notice. Owners are required to provide stove knob covers or permanent stove safety knobs with integrated locking mechanisms for gas-powered stoves where the owner knows or reasonably should know that a child under 6 years of age resides. 

Today is the last day to deliver the “Annual Notice: Protect Your Child from Lead Poisoning & Window Falls” to all tenants in your building.

Today is the last day to distribute a copy of your building’s Fire & Emergency Safety Plan (FEP) and annual stove knob cover notice to building employees and current occupants of every apartment if you opt to deliver the FEP with your “Annual Notice: Protect Your Child from Lead Poisoning & Window Falls.” You don’t have to deliver the FEP now if you distributed it to building employees and occupants in October 2024.
