Job Description

About the Agency:
The NYC Department Housing Preservation & Development (HPD) promotes quality and affordability in the city's housing, and diversity and strength in the city’s neighborhoods because every New Yorker deserves a safe, affordable place to live in a neighborhood they love. HPD is entrusted with fulfilling these objectives through the goals and strategies of Housing Our Neighbors: A Blueprint for Housing and Homelessness, Mayor Adams’ comprehensive housing framework.

To support this important work, the administration has committed $5 billion in new capital funding, bringing the 10-year planned investment in housing to $22 billion—the largest in the city’s history. This investment, coupled with a commitment to reduce administrative and regulatory barriers, is a multi‑pronged strategy to tackle New York City’s complex housing crisis, addressing homelessness and housing instability, promoting economic stability and mobility, increasing home ownership opportunities, improving health and safety, and increasing opportunities for equitable growth.

• Maintain building and resident safety and health
• Create opportunities for New Yorkers through housing affordability
• Engage New Yorkers to build and sustain neighborhood strength and diversity

Your Team:

OENS uses enforcement tools within its Division of Code Enforcement, Housing Litigation Division, Emergency Repair Program, the Division of Neighborhood Preservation and the Division of Special Enforcement to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

The Office of Enforcement and Neighborhood Services is composed of seven divisions:
