Permit Expeditors and Code Consultants Help Navigate Local Law 126 Compliance in New York City

As enforcement of Local Law 126 continues across New York City, Burnham Nationwide, a leading provider of permit expediting, code consulting, and code compliance services, is helping property owners prepare for and manage this complex regulation. Instead, they connect clients with licensed Qualified Parking Structure Inspectors (QPSIs) and handle the permitting and documentation needed to meet DOB requirements.

Local Law 126 mandates that all parking structures in New York City undergo visual and hands-on inspections every six years by a QPSI registered with the Department of Buildings (DOB). Missing a deadline can result in $1,000 monthly fines, legal exposure, and potential disruptions to building operations.

“Our clients count on us to simplify what can feel like an overwhelming process,” said Manny Rodriguez, representative at Burnham Nationwide. “We’re not inspectors, but we are the behind-the-scenes experts who make sure the right forms are filed, the right permits are secured, and no deadline is missed. Compliance is about coordination — and that’s where we come in.”

Burnham Nationwide works in over 3,000 municipalities across the United States and has a diverse client base from Fortune 200 companies to specialized architectural and development firms.

Burnham Nationwide’s Role in Local Law 126 Compliance

While Burnham is not a QPSI, they provide support that’s essential for full compliance. Their services include:

  • Permit Expediting in New York: Accelerated permitting for any repair or construction work identified by inspectors.

  • Code Consulting: Strategic guidance to align repair plans with DOB standards and avoid red tape.

  • Inspector Coordination: Referrals to vetted QPSIs, ensuring timely scheduling and reporting.

  • Documentation Filing: Burnham handles the critical paperwork and tracks approvals to prevent delays.

  • Due Diligence Support: Ideal for developers or owners planning property acquisitions, upgrades, or change-of-use.

Burnham recently assisted The Metropolitan Museum of Art with its garage permit process, coordinating with QPSIs and the DOB to meet Local Law 126 requirements on time and within scope.

Why Partnering with a Permit Expeditor in New York Matters

The risk of non-compliance extends beyond fines. Building owners may face increased insurance premiums, liability, and even forced closures. With Burnham’s support, clients can ensure that code compliance and permitting don't derail operations or budgets.

“We’ve seen firsthand how proactive code compliance planning can help property owners avoid costly delays and disruptions,” added Manny.“It’s not just about the inspection — it’s about what comes next, and we’re the team that gets you there.”
