905 Schenectady Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 905 Schenectady Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Velma Smith and constructed in 1920, has multiple ongoing compliance issues that warrant attention. Most notably, the building has an unbroken pattern of failing to submit required annual bedbug reports over the past four years (2021-2024), as evidenced by open Housing Maintenance Code violations.

These recurring violations suggest persistent oversight regarding bedbug reporting requirements, though they do not necessarily indicate an active pest infestation. In addition to the bedbug reporting issues, the property has two active Department of Buildings violations from 2023 related to external low-pressure inspection filings.

Specifically, the building has failed to submit required documentation for both the 2021 and 2022 external low-pressure inspections, with these violations still open as of June 2023. Given the recent nature of these violations, there may be safety implications regarding the building's exterior systems, though the exact nature of the required inspections is not detailed in the records. The combination of open violations across multiple years for both bedbug reporting and low-pressure inspection filings suggests a pattern of non-compliance with basic regulatory requirements, which could impact resident safety and comfort.
