Demolition of Building Without Notice or Opportunity to Be Heard Was a Proper Exercise of City’s Police Powers

The Second Department determined summary judgment dismissing the complaint against the city, based upon the city’s demolishing a building without notice or the opportunity to be heard, was properly granted:

“In the exercise of its police powers [a] municipality may demolish a building without providing notice and an opportunity to be heard if there are exigent circumstances which require immediate demolition of the building to protect the public from imminent danger” … . “[W]here there is competent evidence allowing the official to reasonably believe that an emergency does in fact exist, or that affording pre-deprivation process would be otherwise impractical, the discretionary invocation of an emergency procedure results in a constitutional violation only where such invocation is arbitrary or amounts to an abuse of discretion” … . Here, the defendant City of New York made a prima facie showing that its decision to cause the demolition of the subject building was not arbitrary or an abuse of discretion … . In opposition, the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact. Iavarone v City of New York, 2015 NY Slip Op 04811, 2nd Dept 6-10-15
