Navigating NYC's Latest Regulatory Challenge: The 2015 Fire Code

The long-awaited changes in the NYC Fire Code will be released in 2015, and while the FDNY continues to refine the rules and the ink is not yet dry on the final copy, BOMA/NY has developed a seminar that will thoroughly brief you on the new provisions and enactment details.

Our annual seminar on Fire and Life Safety goes into high gear on Jan. 21, with a proactive, practical overview of what building teams can expect from the new code — from what’s new and different from the previous code, to how to comply most effectively, FDNY enforcement and more.

Presented by BOMA/NY’s Professional Development Committee at Club 101 from 8-10:30 a.m., it is being led by experts from: SiteCompli, a technology company that updates/aggregates data ranging from violations and inspections to fines and permits across city agencies; Croker Fire Drill Corp., the 100-year-old expert in fire safety, plans, training and prevention; and Cohen, Hochman & Allen, a leading administration law firm specializing in NYC regulatory law.

With BOMA/NY Treasurer Ronald S. Zeccardi moderating, highlights will include:

•    The 18-24 month timeline for compliance
•    Plan requirements, including the three levels of plans based on occupancy type
•    Plan contents
•    Violation types and penalties, particularly minimizing outstanding penalties
•    Enforcement
•    FDNY structure and how units interface with plan compliance/enforcement

Sample reports and best practices will also be covered so attendees will leave with as much practical knowledge as possible.

Cost is $125 for BOMA/NY members and $180 for non-members. Your electronic invites have been distributed — if you can’t find yours or it ended up in cyber space, use this convenient link: http://www.cvent.com/d/vrqn6y/1Q
