696 East 182nd Street, Bronx, NY 10457

The three-unit, three-story building at 696 East 182nd Street in Belmont, owned by Clint Okayama, was constructed in 2001 and has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance over the past four years. Between 2021 and 2024, the property has received four open violations related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports under the NYC Housing Maintenance Code, with the most recent citation recorded in April 2024.

While these violations represent regulatory noncompliance rather than direct pest issues, they indicate a pattern of oversight in maintaining mandatory reporting requirements. In contrast, the building's rodent management program shows consistent attention to pest control, with eight consecutive passed inspections from 2020 through 2025, including three inspections in 2024 alone.

Notably, there was one recorded instance of rat activity in March 2023, but the property subsequently achieved compliance by May 2023 and has maintained a clean record since then, passing all subsequent rodent inspections. This suggests that while there have been challenges with bedbug reporting compliance, the building has actively addressed rodent control measures when necessary, with no recent indications of ongoing vermin issues. The most recent inspections in 2025 have shown continued compliance with rodent control requirements, passing inspections conducted in March and September 2024, though the bedbug reporting violation from April 2024 remains unresolved as of the current date.
