316 Fountain Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family house at 316 Fountain Avenue in East New York, owned by Mohammad Rosul, has a concerning history of violations and compliance issues particularly centered around 2018. During that year, the building underwent multiple Professional Certification Compliance Audits, with inspectors receiving limited access during one inspection in September 2018. A series of Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations were issued between June 2018 and January 2019, detailing various issues including illegal cellar use, unpermitted work, and failure to maintain building code compliance.

Notably, one inspection in October 2018 revealed an open and uncapped gas line with a valve in a kitchen cabinet at the cellar level, which poses serious safety concerns. Additional violations were related to illegal occupancy and work not conforming to approved construction documents. The building experienced multiple rodent inspections between 2011 and 2013, with several initial inspections failing for various reasons before achieving compliance in 2013.

However, a failure to certify correction on an immediately hazardous ECB violation was recorded in January 2019. Building permits were subsequently issued in January 2019 for electrical and plumbing work, suggesting some remediation efforts were undertaken after the 2018 violations. While most violations have been resolved according to records, the pattern of repeat violations and compliance issues during 2018 raises concerns about the building's past maintenance and safety standards.
