Q&A

Banks asks if OAC providers are reimbursed for fines

New York City Council · Oct 27, 2026 · starts 2:10:03 · 1 min 11 sec

Banks returns to fines and asks if an OAC provider pays a fine, are they reimbursed. Trimble says it depends on the specific incident and whether the violation is the provider's responsibility. Banks asks about NYCHA-caused violations; Trimble says she is not familiar with reimbursement and NYCHA would work to correct it.

Chris Banks

Thank you, Chair.

Chris Banks

I guess I want to dive right into Rad Pack, particularly with the conversions that continue to take place, and I guess more obviously down the line.

Chris Banks

For developments undergoing PAC conversion, well, let me back up because I needed to get this on the record as well.

Chris Banks

Going back to the OACs that have received fines or been going into oath, when a fine is issued to an OAC provider and it's paid by the provider,

Chris Banks

are they reimbursed?

Eva Trimble

It depends.

Eva Trimble

I'd have to understand the specific incident, but again, there are certain violations that are the provider's responsibility, and so if they do not correct it, is there fine to pay?

Chris Banks

Okay, so it's case by case based on what I'm...

Chris Banks

Okay, thank you.

Chris Banks

And for nitrous ones?

Eva Trimble

I'm not familiar with reimbursement.

Eva Trimble

They probably wouldn't pay.

Eva Trimble

We'd work to correct it.

Chris Banks

Okay.

Chris Banks

Thank you.
