With the May 1 deadline for LL84 benchmarking compliance fast approaching, New York City building owners face mounting pressure to ensure their properties align with the stringent requirements set forth in Local Law 97 (LL97). Latitude Compliance stresses the paramount importance of precise benchmarking to mitigate fines and achieve LL97 carbon caps compliance.

Leveraging expert guidance, rent-regulated building owners or houses of worship can navigate the intricacies of the process and secure exemption through Section 321 of Local Law 97. It’s imperative to note that there exists a one-time opportunity for these building owners to submit a report by May 1, 2025, offering a pathway to essential exemption from LL97.

LL84 mandates building owners to report energy and water usage annually, providing crucial data for the city to track energy consumption trends and develop strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Compliance with LL84 not only fulfills legal obligations but also plays a pivotal role in reducing carbon emissions and creating a more sustainable urban environment.

Latitude Compliance offers comprehensive services tailored to assist building owners in meeting LL84 requirements efficiently and accurately. Our team of experts specializes in navigating the complexities of energy reporting, ensuring that clients fulfill their obligations seamlessly while maximizing energy efficiency opportunities.

“We understand the importance of timely and accurate benchmarking for building owners in New York City,” says Marty Waisbrod the CEO of Latitude Compliance. “By leveraging our services, building owners can streamline their compliance processes, gain valuable insights into energy usage patterns, and ultimately save on energy costs.”

Furthermore, compliance with LL84 directly informs the implementation of Local Law 97 (LL97), which establishes carbon emissions caps for buildings larger than 25,000 square feet. By effectively meeting LL84 requirements, building owners lay the groundwork for compliance with LL97 and avoid unnecessary potential penalties associated with poor benchmarking tactics.

With the benchmarking deadline fast approaching, Latitude Compliance encourages building owners to take proactive steps to ensure compliance with LL84. By partnering with Latitude Compliance, building owners can simplify their compliance efforts, minimize risks, and contribute to New York City’s sustainability goals.
