- 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.

In recent weeks, the Municipal Liaison Committee met with officials from the NYC Fire Department to discuss the Department's move away from the Non-Cure Enforcement Program. The following is the Committee's report, conclusion and recommendation. Please use the comment field for questions.
- Fire Dept has discontinued the old system (non-cure) and we no longer have access
- All on call are using Non-Cure Enforcement Program
- This is more accurate than the current Online System
- It may include prior cured violations – these will need to be verified with Fire Department as cured if questioned
- We were told 50,000+ violations are to be removed from this system
- We can no longer access the old system to cross-reference the possible dismissed violations
- Conclusion: We are all in agreement to use the Non-Cure Enforcement Program
Knowing we may be questioned on reporting older violations that we previously did not because they are no longer open but appearing in this system.

A Report from the Municipal Liaison Committee
In light of the current health crisis, the title industry should expect changes in municipality hours of service and closures throughout New York State.
We have already seen partial closures at county offices, and in the city, town and village governments. We should also expect that there will be cases where the municipality will close and the employees will not be available for any access to public information. Municipalities that have created public internet access to specific information should not be disrupted during this time.
Some of the municipalities remain fully staffed but are limiting access or closing to the public. In these cases, they are providing an alternative method of obtaining public information. These alternative methods often require more involvement by municipal workers, which may cause delays in the return times of municipals, tax and exam searches. Each individual municipality closing will be different.
You should contact your examiner and/or municipal vendor with questions regarding a specific municipality.

Out of an abundance of caution, the internal lobby area of Village Hall at the Regatta (123 Mamaroneck Avenue) will be inaccessible to the public until further notice. Residents and members of the public seeking to do business at Village Hall may enter the vestibule area of Village Hall and approach the glass window where Village personnel can answer questions and process transactions. Please note that the public computer (which is located inside the internal lobby area) and used to check taxes and tax liens is unavailable at this time. Instead, individuals and employees of tax lien service companies should email their requests to clerktreasurer@vomny.org with the following information
