A new investigative report reveals how a major New York City agency has been quietly approving permits for construction projects despite repeated violations of safety codes, raising serious concerns about oversight failures. Whistleblowers and city officials allege that internal reviews have been bypassed or rushed, leaving buildings and residents at risk. The findings come as part of a broader examination into systemic weaknesses in municipal enforcement, with critics demanding immediate reforms. Documents obtained by local media show a pattern of overlooked red flags in high-profile developments, prompting calls for a full audit of the permitting process.
