MAYOR BLOOMBERG SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER TO WAIVE FEES FOR BUSINESSES RECOVERING FROM HURRICANE SANDY

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg today signed an Executive Order waiving fees for businesses rebuilding after suffering damage in Hurricane Sandy. Fees related to various applications, permits, inspections and other requirements will be waived for businesses that were open and operating on or prior to Hurricane Sandy and were located in Hurricane Evacuation Zones A or B, within a Business Recovery Zone, or in a building that was inspected for structural damage by the Department of Buildings. The Mayor first announced this initiative in his State of the City Address one week ago. Businesses still need to file the required applications and permits, but will not have to pay associated fees if they successfully apply for a waiver. Applications are on the Restoration Business Acceleration Team’s web page at www.NYC.gov.
