The NYC Board of Standards and Appeals (BSA) has outlined comprehensive Guidelines for Drawings to ensure that all submissions meet the necessary requirements for zoning, safety, and compliance.
Key Highlights:
- Standardized Format: Drawings must be legible in both print and digital formats, adhere to specified dimensions, and include clear zoning analysis sheets.
- Mandatory Notes: Specific notes must be included for various building types, including community facilities, schools, and residential properties, ensuring clarity on compliance and approvals.
- Special Requirements: Additional guidelines for parking layouts, landscaping, fencing, flood zones, and fire safety systems must be followed as applicable.
- Revision Protocols: All revisions should be highlighted on one set of drawings and submitted alongside a clean version.
