EHU Supervising Field Tech L3 Emergency Operations and Enhanced Enforcement Division; E

Overview

About The Agency 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. To support this important work, the administration has committed significant capital funding to advance housing objectives and reduce barriers to housing stability.

The Office of Enforcement and Neighborhood Services (OENS) leads the agency’s effort to work closely with HPD divisions and outside partners to identify distressed buildings, assess and develop strategies, and collaborate with owners to improve conditions and return buildings to sound financial footing and physical health. OENS uses enforcement tools within its divisions to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

The Office of Enforcement and Neighborhood Services is composed of seven divisions:
Data Management & Technology (DMT), Division of Neighborhood Preservation (DNP), Administration & Internal Compliance (AIC), Housing Litigation Division (HLD), Division of Code Enforcement (DCE), Emergency Operations and Enhanced Enforcement Division (EOD), and Division of Emergency Housing Services (EHS).

The Emergency Operations and Enhanced Enforcement Division is responsible for emergency repairs in privately-owned residential buildings and for monitoring vendor repair work in City-owned buildings. The primary goal is to secure voluntary corrective action by the landlord, eliminating the need for direct City involvement.
