How to Remove a DOT Sidewalk Violation in NYC: Step-by-Step
The exact process to dismiss a NYC DOT sidewalk violation, from inspection to re-inspection.
1. Look up your violation on the DOT Sidewalk Violation Search portal.
2. Get a written estimate from a licensed sidewalk contractor.
3. Pull the DOT sidewalk permit (we do this for you).
4. Replace the flagged sidewalk sections to NYC specs.
5. Request DOT re-inspection. Violation is dismissed once it passes.
