Occupancy Hazards

Political theater in the Big Apple?

• The FDNY is expected order more than half a dozen migrant centers across the Big Apple be vacated over increased fears the sites could become fiery death traps, The Post has learned.

  Officials from both the Office of Emergency Management and FDNY believe the vacate orders are necessary at seven migrant shelters and respite centers where various fire and health hazards have been discovered, according to sources with knowledge of the matter.

  Fire officials will return to the locations starting Sunday to issue their final inspections, the sources said.

We did hear that earlier this year, a CFD Fire Marshall attempted to write up a Police Station for an occupancy violation but it went nowhere. Who would have been the recipient of the ticket? 

• the Desk Sergeant is nominally in charge of the building, but they have no actual control of the illegals;
• same with the Watch Operations Lieutenant;
• the Commander doesn't own the building and can be removed at a moments notice, with or without cause.

Isn't there a "building liaison" or someone from Facilities Management? But they're appointed by the mayor, who also appoints the people who appoint the Fire Marshalls (we don't think it's a testable rank).

If the city wanted to store a few hundred scaffold assemblies in station lobbies, we don't think there's a thing anyone could do about it. The fact that they're using stations to store thousands of diseased illegals and millions of bugs and viruses should be illegal, but there's no one to be cited.
