• Recently, the City of Yonkers began an imaging project using an off-site third party vendor to image all of their Building Department files and folders.
  
  
• Initially, the project would occur Section by Section (there are 6) and any requests for a folder that was currently off-site, would be requested directly with the vendor and returned within a week or two.
  
  
• Since then, it was decided that all the files will be moved off-site one time  and none of the originals remain in the Building Department file room.
  
  
• Of the approximately 16,500 City of Yonkers parcels, about 200 have been imaged and returned to the Yonkers Building Department.
  
  
• The file room appointments to review and request files have been reduced to Tuesdays and Thursdays only.
  
  
• Yonkers is addressing our requests with the vendor, but the files  are taking longer than the initial 1-2 weeks we were told it would take to be scanned and returned to the file room.
  
  
• At this time the City of Yonkers Building Department has not released any update for an estimated project completion date.
