117 North Burgher Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10310

The two-family house at 117 North Burgher Avenue in Randall Manor, owned by Edmond Kazani, has a construction history marked by significant permit-related issues in 2018-2019. During this period, the property, built in 1915, experienced multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to unauthorized construction activities, including working against a stop work order, improper removal of construction materials, and failure to maintain proper site conditions.

Specifically, in early 2018, there were violations for unauthorized work and illegal removal of a stop work order sticker, followed by an ECB violation for excessive debris at the construction site in April 2019, for which a penalty of $310 was imposed. The building underwent several inspections during this period, though none of the related complaints - including those about plumbing issues and site conditions - were substantiated during inspections. Earlier rodent inspections from 2010 and 2011 showed some concerns, with the building failing initial inspections in March 2010 and January 2011, though it subsequently passed compliance checks in May 2010 and March 2011.

Most recently, the building has been issued permits in April 2019 for plumbing and electrical work, suggesting resolution of the previous violations and an attempt to continue necessary improvements to the property. A notable technical detail from 2018-2019 pertains to a DOB violation regarding failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous violation, though this was subsequently dismissed in March 2019. While the building's recent permit activity indicates ongoing maintenance and improvements, the 2018-2019 period stands out as a particularly contentious time in the property's history, primarily due to construction-related compliance issues.
