The NYC Department of Buildings issued an amendment that increased insurance requirements for new construction projects to $35M, which was impossible for builders to obtain, threatening to halt new construction in NYC. When Anderson Kill construction attorney Kevin Connolly recognized the problem, he alerted industry leaders who appointed him chair of a taskforce to address the issue. Kevin assembled a team, wrote a letter to the City, and within days the law was revised adopting his recommended changes, saving the NYC construction industry from coming to a standstill. In his spare time, Kevin enjoys playing paintball, where he is also considered a hero, and plans to attend a large game at West Point in October.

Pending home sales and monthly inventory levels increased in recent months. Warren Buffett believes now is a good time to invest in single family homes given low mortgage rates. Projections anticipate steady improvement in the housing market and economy in 2012.

This document discusses the common law development of the 'no loss' defence in construction cases, focusing on the limits of recovery for assignees compared to assignors. It reviews several key cases, including 'St. Martin's' and 'Linden Gardens,' analyzing how courts have interpreted the rule that an assignee cannot recover more losses than the assignor would have without assignment. The document outlines exceptions that may apply and highlights recent case law that examines the 'no loss' principle in the context of construction claims.White7e ppt ch10

Relationships can be complementary, with each person supplying what the other lacks, or symmetrical with highly similar participants. Conflict is normal in relationships and effective conflict management involves remaining calm and avoiding exaggeration. The document also covers self-disclosure, friendship, stages of relationships, motivations, cultural differences, compliance gaining, and downsides like obsession and abuse.Komunikacijska miopija: a gdje je tu cijela slika? - Dejan Vercic

Christian Heilmann discusses the role of a developer evangelist, which is to translate between technical colleagues, business interests, and the outside developer community. As an evangelist, it is important to be an independent voice and share information freely to establish trust and credibility externally.

Surety bonds are essential for handling mechanics' liens in construction law, with their relevance varying by state. The insolvency of a surety can affect lien enforcement differently depending on state laws, as illustrated by cases in Illinois and New York. While New York courts allow for lien reinstatement under certain conditions if the bond is found worthless, the current statutes make such reinstatement challenging, but lienors still maintain options for recovery against the principal on the bond.Messy.mechanics.lien

1) A subcontractor was unpaid for road patching work it performed for Con Edison under a contract. It filed liens and sued Con Edison along with other parties.
2) The case involves complex issues around public improvement liens under New York's Lien Law, including questions around whether the work constituted a public or private improvement and whether valid liens were filed.
3) While the liens themselves may not be valid, the plaintiffs can still potentially recover against Con Edison through trust fund provisions of the Lien Law, as Con Edison received payments for the work and represented that funds would be held in trust for subcontractors.Messy.mechanics.lien

The document discusses issues with <Client>'s insurance coverage, including:
1) It is not clear that <Client> has a contract requiring $1 million in completed operations coverage as the endorsement states.
2) The excess insurance policies do not expressly obligate <Client> to maintain the required underlying coverage and could be invalidated.
3) <Client>s insurance coverage should not depend on contracts with other parties but protect itself, and the three year limit on completed operations could deny claims arising later.
4) A clause suggesting lack of maintenance could invalidate coverage would likely lead to denied claims and complicate matters.Greening your business is pretty but it may be poisonous

This document discusses the growth of green building initiatives and standards like LEED. It notes that while LEED certification has become prominent, the process of achieving certification can be complex, with many choices around which standard and requirements to follow. This complexity is compounded for public projects that must also meet procurement requirements. The document also discusses risks like failure to achieve certification and emerging policies around reducing carbon emissions that will require upgrades to existing buildings.Best practices for commercial construction contracting 1-6

This document discusses the importance of coordinating construction contracts to properly allocate risks among parties. It argues integrated construction contracting requires reviewing all contract documents, including the project manual prepared by architects, to harmonize terms rather than allowing legal documents to override all others. Coordinating payment terms, responsibilities and procedures between legal and design professional documents is key to avoiding conflicts that could undermine the contract. The lawyer should work with the entire project team, including architects, rather than unilaterally imposing standard legal terms, to ensure the contract accurately reflects the agreed-upon deal.Http _www.law360

1) Construction contracts often require subcontractors to provide insurance naming the general contractor as an additional insured. However, determining what qualifies the general contractor for coverage as an additional insured has been an ongoing legal battle. 2) In this case, the New York Court of Appeals ruled that for a general contractor to be covered as an additional insured, the accident or loss does not need to be due to the named subcontractor's negligence, but rather only needs to arise out of the subcontractor's operations. 3) However, in this specific case, the general contractor conceded the subcontractor was not negligent, removing the only possible link between the subcontractor's work and the accident,Mind the gap

This document discusses risks associated with transporting materials and equipment to construction sites and integrating them into projects. It notes that builders risk insurance may not always cover these risks during transit or installation. It recommends securing dedicated inland marine policies called "installation floaters" to ensure coverage from shipment to final acceptance. These floaters avoid issues from lack of coverage, excluded causes of loss, or uncertainty over which policy applies. While not required for every project, installation floaters should be considered for high-value installations to fully protect against losses.Insurance

Developers and unions are in discussions to avoid a strike, while the city has declined direct involvement.Insurance 102

- Inland Marine insurance covers property that is movable or at risk of loss during transport, such as goods in transit, construction materials, fine art collections, and equipment used at various job sites. It provides both property coverage and business interruption coverage.
- Business interruption coverage pays for lost income and extra expenses if business operations are suspended due to direct physical damage to covered property. What constitutes physical damage and triggering events is often disputed.
- Inland Marine policies use broader language than standard property policies and typically cover all risks unless specifically excluded. They can cover loss of income even when insured property is not physically damaged.Ad

- 1. Kill Bill Like a giant great white, the NYC Department of Buildings recently gave a scare to builders with an insurance amendment it issued that not only upped insurance requirements for new constructions to $35M (previously $1M), but did so in a way that made the insurance impossible to get, threatening to bring new building in NYC to a standstill. When Anderson Kill construction attorney Kevin Connolly spotted the problem, he alerted NYSBA real estate chair Ken Block, who immediately appointed Kevin as the new chair of NYSBA Taskforce on Construction Insurance. Kevin tells us he assembled a team, penned a letter to the City, and days later, the law was revised, adopting his recommendation. When this semi- pro paintballer isnt almost single-handedly saving the NYC construction industry, he again plays the hero at Paintball of Newburg in Plattekill. He tells us hes been playing the sport, often on teams of 500, for 17 years, and is planning to go to West Point for a big game in October.
