Starting on January 1, 2024, in accordance with the requirements of section 28-301.1.1 of the Administrative Code, every building owner must have an observation performed in accordance with this subdivision. This requirement applies to all buildings with parapets fronting the public right-of-way, regardless of height, except for detached 1- or 2-family homes or buildings with a fence or other barrier preventing access to the exterior wall.
