Tigani says DOB uses service notices, construction advisories, building bulletins, the My Building newsletter, social media, quarterly industry meetings, and borough office meetings to keep the industry, building owners, and the public informed of regulatory changes and emerging safety issues.

Ahmed Tigani

When DOB makes changes to the codes or our processes, such as changes to the superintendent requirements, it's important to make sure that the industry, building owners, and the public are provided notice.

Ahmed Tigani

To that end, DOB uses service notices, construction advisories, building bulletins, and our My Building newsletter, which I'm going to pitch.

If you haven't signed up for the My Building newsletter, please go online, add your email.

Ahmed Tigani

We use these tools to keep the construction industry and public informed.

To provide more detailed guidance to clarify regulatory requirements.

and alert the industry and the public to emerging safety issues and regulatory changes.

The department also uses its social media platforms and holds quarterly meetings with various segments of the construction industry and even monthly meetings in our borough office where such issues are discussed.

Ultimately, these proactive outreach efforts ensure that our industry partners, building owners, and the public are well informed and can prepare for changes that will impact them.
