BILL NUMBER:S3736 TITLE OF BILL: An act authorizing the reinstatement of prior approved work permits and waiving the requirements of section 35 and subdivision 2 of section 36 of the general city law as such provisions relate to rebuilding and repairing homes devastated by Hurricane Sandy in the city of New York; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expi- ration thereof PURPOSE OF BILL: The bill is designed to aid those residing in Breezy Point that seek to rebuild or repair their homes following the devastation or Hurricane Sandy. Due to the unique layout of Breezy Point many homes do not have mapped street frontage which triggers a BSA hearing and ultimate sign off. This application and review process can typically take 6-12 months or more to be addressed and therefore in a effort to speed recovery, it is a necessity to waive the requirements of sections within the General City Law in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. As a result of the waiver, Breezy Point residents can finally begin the process of rebuilding their homes and putting their lives back together. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: § 1: Legislative Intent

Legislative intent. The storms, rains and floods of Hurri- cane Sandy beginning on October 29, 2012 and ending November 3, 2012 catastrophically impacted real property situated in the city of New York. Storm surge in the Breezy Point neighborhood in the borough of Queens severely damaged or destroyed approximately 167 homes, followed by a major fire which destroyed approximately 127 homes. Other areas of the city of New York were similarly impacted.

The process of review of such applications and ulti- mate grant of the appeal to the general city law can last nearly one year or more.

Legislative findings and intent. The storms, rains and floods of Hurricane Sandy beginning on October 29, 2012 and ending November 3, 2012 catastrophically impacted real property situated in the city of New York. Storm surges in the Breezy Point neighborhood in the borough of Queens severely damaged or destroyed many buildings, followed by a major fire which destroyed additional buildings. Pursuant to the requirements of sections 35 and 36 of the general city law, owners must submit applications to the board of standards and appeals for construction subject to the requirements of these provisions. However, the unprecedented number of applications that could result from this storm might hinder the expeditious repair and reconstruction of build- ings in the area. The legislature finds that it is in the best interests of owners of homes and other buildings in Breezy Point to expedite the rebuilding and repair of such buildings devastated in the wake of Hurricane Sandy through waiver of the requirements of sections 35 and 36 of the general city law.
