540 Shepherd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

540 Shepherd Avenue is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in East New York, constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Mavis Thompson. The building has experienced recurring housing maintenance code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years, with open violations recorded in April 2024, March 2023, March 2022, and April 2021, all citing the owner's failure to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations.

These ongoing violations, while administrative in nature, suggest a pattern of non-compliance with housing maintenance requirements. On a more positive note, the building has passed rodent inspections, most recently in May 2012, indicating no issues with rodent infestations at that time.

Additionally, there was a permit issued in February 2023 for work described under the EW (Emergency Work) classification, with job number 340880844 and permit sequence number 01, though the specific nature and scope of this emergency work is not detailed in the provided data. While the bedbug reporting violations represent the most significant compliance issue on record, the building's age and relatively small number of permits filed in recent years are also notable, though these factors require contextual interpretation within the broader housing market.
